Each year, interested applicants that meet the eligibility criteria (see dedicated award pages) can apply for the EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK award or MOBILITYACTION award from 1 October – 31 October. The winners are selected by an independent jury and finalists are announced early the following year.
This is your opportunity to gain recognition for your achievements in moving sustainable urban mobility forwards!
The EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK Award recognises local authorities that have excelled in raising awareness about sustainable urban mobility.
The award is directly related to local authorities’ active participation in the campaign, which includes (1) organising activities focused on sustainable mobility during the main event week from 16-22 September, (2) implementing one or more permanent transport measures, and (3) holding a ‘Car-Free Day’. In order to apply for this award, local authorities must have completed the three criteria mentioned above.

The MOBILITYACTION Award places a spotlight on the campaign’s MOBILITYACTIONs, which are open to civil society organisations, businesses, citizen initiatives, educational institutions and municipalities (with initiatives taking place outside of the week 16-22 September), promoting sustainable mobility throughout the year.
In particular, the MOBILITYACTION award rewards participants that demonstrate excellence in Mobility Management, including mobility plans, as well as measures and strategies which have a notable impact on sustainable mobility.

In previous years, EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK presented the Award for Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning (SUMP), which was complementary to the EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK campaign but not directly related. The SUMP Award recognised local and regional authorities for excellence in sustainable urban mobility planning and was created to encourage the adoption of SUMPs by local authorities across Europe.
2021 was the last year the SUMP Award was rewarded.

In previous, EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK also awarded the EU Urban Road Safety Award, which, like the SUMP Award, was complementary to the EUROPEANMOBILITYWEEK campaign but not directly related. This award rewarded outstanding and innovative achievements by local authorities in the area of road safety and encouraged the exchange of good practices across Europe.
2021 was the last year that the EU Urban Road Safety Award was given.
