This article illustrates the impact of policy calibration on reducing transport emissions in urban settings, indicating its importance for sustainable development.
Increasing attention to the environmental impacts of the transport sector has given rise to a range of studies dedicated to identifying policy instruments that can promote a shift towards more sustainable land use and transport planning. However, little is understood about the calibration of policy instruments to support this shift. This article seeks to illustrate the impacts of instrument calibration in reducing transport emissions and volumes. It does so by studying the evolution of policies for sustainable mobility in the city of Espoo (Finland) from 2013 to 2025. The empirical material highlights the significance of the calibration of policy instruments in the process of transitioning to more sustainable forms of urban mobility.
