Present at the awards gala, held at the Energy Fair in Rakvere, was Deputy Mayor Raimond Tamm, according to whom the City of Tartu has vigorously contributed to promoting environmentally friendly types of movement. ‘Of course we are pleased when our efforts are noticed and recognised. The main goal of Tartu Smart Bike Share and the gas buses is to offer an efficient alternative to using a car, thereby reducing air pollution and the noise level in the city environment as well as the emission of carbon dioxide responsible for global warming,' Tamm.
