One of the city's goals concerning mobility is to make the most of its existing infrastructure. This includes: reorganisiation of car parking along the roads and vehicle access to the city centre, actions towards an increase of pedestrians' safety; rethinking of road sections and use of public spaces, as well as reorganisation of circulation measures.
In terms of measures to improve the existing infrastructure, the city plans new methods of parking management and regulations, completion of existing road infrastructure projects, reorganisation of bus routes, and improvement of pedestrian access to parks and municipal services.
Moreover, the authorities of Kilkis have plans to invest in new infrastructure. This includes: moving the bus station outside the city, including policies that promote sustainable mobility within the building regulations, planning new parking spaces outside the centre of the city, designing new pedestrian paths and bicycle lanes, and building new cycle parking and storage.
