Dear residents of Riga!
The Urban Development Department of Riga State City Local Government invites you to take part in a survey on Urban Air Mobility. This survey has been developed within the CITYAM project, funded by the Interreg Baltic Sea Region Programme (2023-2025). The survey will be carried out simultaneously in different European cities. Urban Air Mobility (UAM) includes different types of drones, as well as their take-off and landing sites.
The aim of this survey is to involve citizens, raise awareness of the UAM, evaluate citizens’ views and put the UAM on the local government’s agenda. Your participation is vital to help the local government develop the best possible strategies and policies to regulate the use of drones and make our city friendlier and safer for people.
More about CITYAM.
The results of the survey will be published on GEO RĪGA section Engage and on the CITYAM communication channels Website and Linkedin
Riga City is interested to learn more about how people move around their neighbourhoods and the city. This information is essential to improve the quality of life for residents in neighbourhoods and the city as a whole.

For example, we’d like to learn, where You go for a walk after work or on your days off. Do You walk, ride a bicycle or use other modes of transportation? What makes this route and the places You visit special? Are there any places that You especially want to highlight on this route? It is important for us to learn how to improve everyday life in neighbourhoods, and Your opinion and experience matter in this process. Help to improve Your neighbourghood and city – answer the questions and draw Your route on the map.
To ensure the safety and order of road users on the city’s streets, parking zones for electric scooters and electric bicycles are gradually being introduced in Rīga so that residents and renters of these mobility devices can park them safely, conveniently and without disturbing other road users.
The first zones have been set up in consultation with rental companies, at the most popular starting and finishing points of trips, as well as at locations where shared mobility tools most often cause inconvenience to pedestrians and other road users.
Citizens are invited to mark on the map their suggestions where these areas should be located, with an address and a photo of the location. Please note that electric scooter and bicycle parking areas are created on pavements between urban landscaping elements, where they do not obstruct pedestrians or cyclists.
Test your knowledge on cigarette butts and waste segregation by taking the 12-question knowledge test!
Before taking the test, please watch the Zaļās jostas educational short film “Izsmēķa ceļš”, available on the organisation’s Youtube account.
Baltic Sea Day is celebrated every year on 31 August in the countries bordering the Baltic Sea. 2023. Tallinn, the European Green Capital for 2023, together with Helsinki and Let’s Do It World, is calling attention to the environmental problems of the Baltic Sea. This year, Latvian municipalities, together with the organisers of the Big Clean-up, have agreed to pay particular attention to the environmental impact of littering.
The first phase is a questionnaire where residents are invited to share their dog walking habits and experiences of dog-related accidents, as well as to assess their level of knowledge of the dog walking rules and make suggestions to the municipality on how to improve dog walking.
The second phase is a mapping, which invites residents to indicate where in the city it would be advisable to install a dog walking area. Please note that the municipality may only consider dog parks in areas it owns.
The third phase is a webinar, where the information provided by the residents is discussed with representatives of the municipality and future plans for new dog walking areas are outlined.
The prospective Anniņmuiža Forest Park includes the present Anniņmuiža Forest and Vecanniņmuiža Park. In order for the municipality to be able to issue binding regulations for the maintenance of the area, it is necessary to grant it the status of a forest park, which can be done by drawing up a park plan and management regulations.
On 14 June, a public consultation was held to hear residents’ views on the prospective layout of the Forest Park. Only 14 people attended the consultation, so a survey is being organised to find out more public opinion.
We would like to find out the opinion of the residents of Riga in order to know what are the current problems and what solutions and/or improvements are needed in the field of waste management.
The aim of the project was to find out the opinion of the residents of Riga in order to know what the current problems are and what solutions and/or improvements would be necessary for the development of waste management.
The project took place in two phases:
The community center is an inclusive, versatile and open place for every resident of the neighborhood and community. The community center is a place where all kinds of residents can meet to spend their free time together, discuss issues that are relevant to them, receive and provide support, as well as create, do and learn in cooperation with others.
A community center has defined functions, operating principles and division of responsibilities among its various users. It provides residents with leisure opportunities, increases residents’ participation, social activity and sense of belonging to the community, improves the self-organization skills of community center visitors, promotes a sense of responsibility for their actions and the environment, develops a network of informal social support, and promotes volunteer work.
Riga municipality is currently developing the concept of community centers and this survey is conducted with the aim of finding out the opinions of residents about possible community centers in Riga and their willingness to visit them.
The project took place in two phases:
