It covers diverse subjects: housing, economy, employment, mobility, environment, safety, research, heritage, tourism, trade, culture, social policy.

The main priorities aim at guiding people to a traffic use that is better for the environment, at increasing the safety of the weakest users, at improving the living environment, at applying a policy concerning reduction of parking lots, at optimizing the movement for transport vehicles.

The transport and mobility policy of the Region is essentially translated into the plan Iris, through diverse actions on the urban structures. These actions are in favour of walking, cycling, the development of the public place, public transportation, transport of goods, the reduction of car traffic and the reduction of the car parking.

The PRD has no statutory value but has an important political reach. Other plans ensue from it.
