Embedding urban air mobility in sustainable urban mobility planning
The EU Drone Strategy aims to position Europe as a global leader in drones and Urban Air Mobility (eVTOLs). Enabling large‑scale commercial drone operations can deliver innovative mobility solutions that enhance efficiency and sustainability, yet these services are still not commonly integrated into local transport networks. This raises important questions for local authorities: What opportunities does Urban Air Mobility create, and what new responsibilities arise in ensuring safety, addressing public concerns, managing public space, coordinating services and supporting economic development?
