Cities in Europe are vital centres of economic activity, innovation and employment. However, they face increasing challenges to their mobility systems such as congestion, air pollution, ambient noise, CO2 emissions, accidents and urban sprawl. To tackle these problems cities need to develop and implement coherent and challenging Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPS).
The Urban Transport Roadmaps project provides you with an on-line tool to help you develop the first scenarios of your SUMP. With its simplified approach the tool serves as a first step for people with non-specialist knowledge and allows you to:
- explore and identify appropriate sustainable transport policy measures;
- quantify the transport, environmental and economic impacts of these measures;
- consider an implementation pathway (roadmap) for the policy scenario.
