DEMO-EC
DEvelopment of sustainable MObility management in European Cities
Green
Zero-carbon urban mobility
2014-2020
Project summary
The population of cities increases in Europe, which is a big challenge for the organization of transport in urban areas. For environmental friendly transport and to reduce CO2-consumption the alternatives for normal cars have to be introduced. A crucial aspect is to foster the combination of different environmental transport modes like public transport, cycling and also new arise mobility solutions. One way to combine these modes is a mobility management approach. The challenge here is that in city administrations a lack of instruments and unclear responsibilities exist. For successful implementation of mobility management also different actors and user groups has to involve like companies and inhabitants as end users.
DEMO-EC fosters low-carbon transport in cities through integration of mobility management by combining the fields of mobility behaviour change, governance, e-mobility, car reduction, walking, cycling and public transport.
What did this project achieve?
... of the project DEMO-EC is to integrate mobility management in city development/planning by analyzing, exchange and dissemination of good practice to improve the effectiveness of policies in the field of low-carbon in transport. The envisaged impact of the project is to positive influence policies to envisage low-carbon alternatives for transport mobility by supporting cleaner transport modes and systems, and by promoting alternative mobility behavior. To reach these aims the partners of DEMO-EC collect Best-practices from local, regional, national and European level in the fields of Behavior change, Governance/participation, E-Mobility, Car reduction (walking, cycling) and Public transport. The partners, consist of cities and regional development agencies from 6 different countries, exchange their experiences and results of the best practice analysis to improve policy programmes by developing 7 regional action plans. The experienced and best-practices gained in the project also helps cities to improve their instruments and realize mobility management in their cities and regions.
