Abstract: Abstract The chapter analyses the travel preferences of citizens in the main European capitals, highlighting, on the one hand, the strong use of the private car as a means of transport and, on the other hand, the willingness of private and public transport companies to discourage its use in favour of greater environmental and social sustainability promoted by public transport, micro-mobility, and shared mobility. In particular, within this setting, the chapter analyses and compares open public mobility platforms in Europe and the main sustainable mobility projects developed by local public transport operators with a focus on the electrification of bus fleets and discussion of the case of Venice. This analysis aims to identify the main trajectories of changes in public transport in Europe that are driving green transitions, their challenges, and the results obtained so far, to disentangle future avenues of change.
