(10) It is necessary to promote investments in favour of smart, sustainable, inclusive, safe and secure mobility throughout the Union and mainly in urban areas and interconnections between them, where most of the transport and mobility problems are caused and can be solved. In 2017, the Commission presented20 "Europe on the move", a wide-ranging set of initiatives to make traffic safer, encourage smart road charging, reduce CO2 emissions, air pollution and congestion, promote connected and autonomous mobility and ensure proper conditions and rest times for workers. These initiatives should be accompanied by Union financial support, where relevant through this Programme. __________________ 20 Commission Communication "Europe on the move: An agenda for a socially fair transition towards clean, competitive and connected mobility for all" – COM(2017) 283
