Denmark’s National Strategy of Green Mobility and Its Impacts

Abstract

Denmark has now established itself as a standout in the global field of sustainable transportation, and behind this achievement lies a comprehensive national green mobility strategy—one that not only drives shifts toward lowcarbon travel but also makes cities more livable. This article explores the core components of this strategy, including long-term policies, infrastructure development, incentive measures, and governance collaboration, while also analyzing its impacts on the environment, public health, and the economy. Drawing on practices in Copenhagen and insights from bicycle urban planning, the research finds that Denmark’s integrated approach serves as a replicable model. Notably, it highlights the importance of aligned national-local implementation, equitable infrastructure development, and cultural acceptance of green mobility.
