Era-net Transport and the three research consortia SHAPE-IT, Step-by-Step and GPS, in collaboration with the National Centre for Research and Development and Krakow University of Technology, will hold the Stepping Stones Final Conference in Krakow, Poland from 18-19 September 2014. The conference is under the motto “How to Make Mobility Patterns More Sustainable” and will look at the results from the three Stepping Stones research consortia on sustainable urban mobility planning. The projects will present key success factors and recommendations based on their analyses of more than 60 local case examples of European cities and regions.
