    What this call funds

    This call funds projects that develop and test practical solutions to reduce pollution, noise and other negative effects of active railways and motorways on nearby neighbourhoods, turning them into more attractive, healthy and biodiverse places. Applicants must demonstrate their measures in three real neighbourhoods (urban, peri-urban and rural) in different countries, measure the impact, identify regulatory barriers, and produce guidance so other towns can replicate the approach.
