ACTIVITY INFORMATION

What we are doing

CIVITAS ‘SUMP-PLUS’ is a Research and Innovation Actions project, designed to address urban mobility related challenges and to exploit new opportunities by developing a strong, rigorous evidence base through a co-created City Laboratories approach (to be demonstrated in 6 EU cities) building on the strengths of existing SUMPs and SULPs. It has 4 primary policy objectives: 1. Develop and apply a set of context-specific mobility transformation pathways that will enable cities to map out a practical implementation pathway; 2. Demonstrate how cities can develop stronger links with other urban system components, while taking into account disruptive technological and contextual developments; 3. Identify new solutions that will increase efficiency and sustainability in both the freight and passenger sectors; 4. Identify and demonstrate new partnerships and business models that enable various mobility objectives to be met cost-effectively through appropriate public/private sector partnerships.

What we are achieving

Promoting the project and its results among multiple beneficiaries is an important goal of the project. ICLEI therefor develops, implements, and monitors a detailed strategy for communication, dissemination, and exploitation. ICLEI will thereby safeguard the implementation and replication of developed solutions beyond the project’s lifetime. ICLEI will further develop a typology of city types that recognises different contexts.
