Integrated planning

Our Integrated Planning team is engaged in projects and activities that facilitate integrated planning practices towards more sustainable urban mobility. For over ten years we have been working in the area of Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning (SUMP) and have helped to create a strong showcase for a new planning culture for European cities and regions. We have helped create a significant knowledge base that is freely available to practitioners worldwide. SUMP also opens up the possibility for urban governance and planning processes to integrate regional transport networks such as the Trans-European transport network (TEN-T) in order to ease the burden of traffic on urban areas and to improve connectivity. Integrated planning approaches are also becoming more and more relevant for emerging and developing countries aiming to tackle increasing motorisation and negative impacts of transport movements.  

 

Our services

  • Support in all aspects of Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning (SUMP)
  • Facilitation of integrated, cooperative and systematic planning in cities and regions
  • Strategic development of the transport network towards more sustainable urban mobility
  • Moderation of stakeholder cooperation and public participation
  • Organisation of conferences and stakeholder consultations
  • Provision of SUMP knowledge and learning material
  • Monitoring and evaluation of mobility measures and pilot innovations
  • SUMP in developing and emerging countries
  • Integration of Urban Nodes in the Trans European transport network (TEN-T)
  • Research, analysis, learning, exchange and promotion to support the above
