Through this general objective, TROLLEY sought to enhance quality, safety and attractiveness of public transport, while also contributing to the mitigation of negative environmental impacts of transport in Central Europe.

Results

The following main outputs (consisting of several sub-outputs) were produced and made available to other interested stakeholders step-by-step, providing the latest available state-of-the-art knowledge on operating trolleybus systems:
