At two selected locations, we will establish pilot carpool parking areas. The parking spaces will be marked with visible signs informing residents about the possibility of carpooling or using public transportation. A call to use these parking areas will be published on the official website of the Municipality of Benedikt and on the municipality’s official Facebook profile, where we will also inform residents about the purpose and benefits of carpooling and sustainable mobility.

As part of the European Mobility Week 2025, the Municipality of Benedikt will carry out activities to promote sustainable commuting of employees to work, with a focus on the use of public transport, cycling (i.e. "cycling to work"), and carpooling.

As part of the European Mobility Week 2025, the Municipality of Benedikt will establish a Kiss & Ride zone located next to the Benedikt Primary School. The purpose of this zone is to provide a safe drop-off area for children arriving at school by car. Parents will be able to make a short stop in a specially designated and marked area, safely drop off their child, and then continue their journey.

As part of the European Mobility Week 2025, the Municipality of Benedikt, in cooperation with Benedikt Primary School, will implement a so-called “School Street.” For a period of one month, the main parking lot next to the school and part of the access road leading directly to the school building will be closed to motor traffic. This will restrict car access to the school, allowing children a safe, comfortable, and independent way to reach the school, while also creating a secure and lively space for socializing, physical activity, and learning in front of the school.

As part of the European Mobility Week 2025 and the municipal holiday of the Municipality of Benedikt, we will organize a hike through the Municipality of Benedikt, intended for all generations of residents and visitors. The hike will follow a carefully selected route where participants will explore historical and local landmarks of the Municipality of Benedikt and discover forgotten paths that were once important to the local community and are now being revived for tourism and everyday use.

As part of the European Mobility Week 2025, the Municipality of Benedikt will host a musical event titled “Mobile Sv. Trije Kralji in the Slovenske gorice,” which will take place in the settlement of Sv. Trije Kralji, in the Municipality of Benedikt

As part of this year’s European Mobility Week, the Municipality of Benedikt will organize a workshop titled “Promoting Active Mobility among the Elderly,” aimed at raising awareness about the importance of sustainable mobility and physical activity in later life.

In cooperation with the Benedikt Pensioners' Association, the Municipality of Benedikt will organize a guided event titled “Cycling for Seniors across the Municipality of Benedikt with a Cyclists’ Breakfast” as part of European Mobility Week 2025. The event is intended to promote physical activity and sustainable mobility among older residents. Before the ride, participants will be offered a healthy cyclists’ breakfast (fruit, water, and a light nutritious snack). The route will be carefully selected and adapted to suit all participants, regardless of their physical fitness or type of bicycle (classic or electric). The cycling route will follow safe local roads and pass by interesting and pleasant spots throughout the municipality.

In cooperation with the Benedikt Kindergarten, we will carry out the activity “To Kindergarten with the White Bunny” as part of the European Mobility Week 2025. The activity will involve children aged 3 to 6, together with their parents and teachers. It is designed as a game and experiential learning activity aimed at playfully encouraging sustainable travel habits from an early age.

As part of the activity, residents will have the opportunity to submit suggestions regarding everyday obstacles they encounter on their routes as pedestrians, cyclists, or users of other sustainable forms of mobility. On a specially prepared scaled-down map of the municipality, featuring marked municipal infrastructure, they will be able to identify critical points—such as poorly maintained green areas, overgrown or mud-covered cycling and walking paths, inaccessible routes, and similar issues.
The collected suggestions will be recorded and reviewed together with representatives of the municipal road maintenance concessionaire and other stakeholders during on-site visits. Based on these findings, we will prepare a plan for their removal. We will strive to eliminate most of these obstacles during the European Mobility Week 2025.
