Abstract: This study focuses on evaluating the ecological and economic benefits of mobility policy in Baku City. As the capital and the most densely populated urban area of Azerbaijan, Baku faces significant challenges related to traffic congestion, air pollution and inefficient energy consumption. The adoption of sustainable mobility policies, such as the development of public transportation networks, the promotion of non-motorized transport (cycling and walking) and the introduction of environmentally friendly vehicles, plays a crucial role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions, improving air quality and enhancing urban living standards. From an economic perspective, effective mobility strategies help minimize transportation costs, increase energy efficiency and improve workforce productivity by reducing time losses caused by traffic congestion. Moreover, the integration of smart technologies in transportation management contributes to long-term savings and sustainable urban development. By assessing both ecological and economic impacts, this research underlines the necessity of a complex mobility policy framework to ensure sustainable growth and improved quality of life in Baku City.
