- SUMP (Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans) Training and Capacity Building in EU countriesntegrate TRT, supported by a consortium of six companies (DTV Consultants, TREDIT, TIS, Stratec, Goudappel, and Eurocities), has been appointed by the European Investment Bank (EIB) to provide SUMP Training and Capacity Building activities in multiple EU countries. The primary goal of the project is to enhance the expertise of urban and regional transport planners, as well as newcomers, focusing on Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs) and offering centralized support for their implementation at the local and regional levels. The project entails a comprehensive program encompassing more than 20 training sessions and workshops in less than 2 years, covering SUMPs, National SUMP Support Programmes (NSSP), and Sustainable Urban Mobility Indicators (SUMI) monitoring and reporting mechanisms. The project aims to improve the technical and policy expertise of urban transport planners regarding SUMPs and facilitate their implementation at city or regional levels. It targets local training for TEN-T urban nodes, Cities Mission cities, and small/medium-sized EU cities, alongside capacity-building workshops to assist in establishing NSSPs at the national/regional levels. This initiative is crucial for implementing the Commission Recommendation on NSSPs, bridging capacity gaps in smaller cities, and ensuring national engagement and support. Aligned with the New EU Urban Mobility Framework, the training sessions will be focused on various SUMP aspects, including governance, legislation, funding, monitoring, evaluation, guidelines, methodology, education, and knowledge exchange through NSSPs. The training approach blends fundamental SUMP knowledge with the latest mobility, technology, and societal developments through a flipped classroom methodology. The ultimate goal of the project is to strengthen SUMP implementation and governance across Europe by addressing key aspects of modern mobility planning, including monitoring tools, legal frameworks, and financial commitment, while tailoring activities based on Member States’ specific needs and interests. The SUMP training and NSSP workshops will be delivered by 4 key experts: José Viegas, who will act as Project Manager, and Peter Jones, Aljaž Plevnik, and Christiaan Kwantes, who will be the training Urban Transport Planning Experts. In addition, they will be supported by a pool of Non-Key Experts with a vast experience in the different fields of the urban mobility domain. The SUMP trainings will cover a wide range of topics, including SUMP methodology, strategic planning, urban transport, organizational aspects, climate change, environmental considerations, stakeholder engagement, promotion, demand analysis, spatial planning, freight, innovation, safety, and social inclusion. The NSSP workshops will encompass several aspects, including NSSP concepts, EC guidance, guest speakers, Q&A sessions, breakout group discussions, systemic barriers, national legislations, SUMP financial support, SUMP platforms, SUMP guidance, and monitoring and evaluation at the national level. Finally, the Consortium possesses a comprehensive range of expertise in various aspects of SUMPs, including consultancy, policy guidance, training, communication, and networking in the field of urban mobility, with a strong track record of successfully managing complex policy projects for the European Commission and other international institutions, established partnerships and communication channels, extensive knowledge of EU mobility planning policies, and a deep understanding of common issues and […]
- Update of the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) of Parma (Italy) The Municipality of Parma has entrusted TRT Trasporti e Territorio with the update of the current Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) of the city, which has been in effect since March 2017 and was also drafted by TRT. The update of the SUMP is significant because: it references the EU guidelines developed within the Eltis project (latest version from 2019), as well as the Minister of Transport’s DM 397/2017 and 396/2019 «Guidelines for Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans», which were not yet issued at the time of the current SUMP; it follows the preparation of the «First Monitoring of the SUMP» (prepared by TRT and approved by the City Council in 2021), which assessed the ongoing achievement of objectives and targets set in the current SUMP; it takes place after the pandemic period (Covid-19), during and after which there have been significant changes in the mobility demand characteristics; moreover, important amendments have been introduced in the Road Code; it must be consistent and support the EU mission «100 climate-neutral and smart cities by 2030», to which the city of Parma has been admitted as one of the nine in Italy, with the goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2030. The activity will unfold in the following methodological steps: background analysis of the framework regarding the Parma’s mobility system and its impacts; analysis, processing, and synthesis of numerical information regarding mobility demand; evaluation of the current scenario (diagnostic framework) through a SWOT analysis; identification of strategies and alternative scenarios for the SUMP, as well as their detailed design; development of a participatory process to extend the sharing and acceptability of measures promoted by the future SUMP; evaluation of scenarios through the application of a multimodal transportation model (VISUM); estimation of investment and management costs for the Plan interventions, and finally design of monitoring activities. Regarding the participation activities, these will accompany different phases of SUMP development, involving citizens and stakeholders through public and thematic meetings, as well as the administration of an online survey directed at the entire community. Related projects: TRT was commissioned in 2019 to coordinate the implementation and monitoring of Parma’s SUMP and was also responsible of the drafting of the General Urban Traffic Plan of the city of Parma. TRT was also responsible of the drafting of the previuos Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan.

- Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan and Urban Plan for Cycling Mobility of the Metropolitan City of Naples The Metropolitan City of Naples has commissioned the temporary grouping of companies consisting of TRT Ingegneria (agent), Sintagma (Principal) and TPS Pro (agent) to draft the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMP) and the related “Biciplan” (Urban Plan for Cycling Mobility). The SUMP is draft in accordance with the guidelines issued by the former MIT today MIMS. Launched in September 2021, the drafting of the SUMP involves several phases: Definition of the “territorial knowledge framework”; Definition of Plan targets and objectives; Definition of policies, strategies and actions; Construction of scenarios and definition of the Plan Proposal; VAS and VIA (strategic and impact – environmental assessments). Along the drafting, the participatory process plays a fundamental role in all the activities underpinning the SUMP according to its own Participation and Communication Plan. TRT contribution in the SUMP drafting includes – in addition to participation along the entire process of the Plan elaboration – the drafting of the Biciplan and two thematic studies: freight transport and urban logistics and transport of people with reduced mobility. The Urban Plan of Cycling Mobility (Biciplan) promotes the use of bicycles as a mode of transport for daily, touristic and recreational activities, improving the safety of cyclists. The Biciplan identifies the strategic metropolitan network with itineraries that connect, in synergy with public transport, the urban centres as well as main attraction and intermodal poles. Sustainable urban freight transport and logistics address the rationalization of freight transport on a metropolitan scale cutting negative impacts and externalities linked with the distribution and the transportation of goods in urban areas. Transport of people with reduced mobility analyses measures to ensure maximum accessibility, autonomy and ease of travel through universally accessible means by removing architectural and virtual barriers. The fundamental objective is the definition of coordinated actions concerning the structure of services, accessibility to transport infrastructures (railway and underground service stations, interchange parking lots, ports, airports, etc.) and the increased participation of people with reduced mobility to public spaces.

- Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) of Ravenna (Italy) and sectorial mobility plans As a result of a tendering procedure, TRT Trasporti e Territorio, in association with META Mobilità Economia Territorio Ambiente and ITL Istituto sui Trasporti e la Logistica, has been selected by the City of Ravenna to prepare their Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) and the related sectorial mobility plans. Team’s activity is focussed on the preparation of the following documents, among other: Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan, which is articulated in several methodological steps related to: 1) monitoring and assessment of the current SUMP’s results; 2) background analysis of the mobility-related framework and its environmental, social and economic impact in Ravenna; 3) identification of the strategies for the construction of the SUMP scenarios; 4) design of detailed alternative scenarios for the SUMP; 5) evaluation procedure, implementing a ex ante transport model (VISUM). The environmental sustainability of the SUMP is verified through the application of the SEA procedure. Public Transport Plan, coherently developed with the SUMP, which includes a technical and economic feasibility study for the implementation of a low- or zero-emissions public transport system. General Urban Traffic Plan, prepared from objectives, strategies and measures previously defined in the selected short-term scenario of the SUMP. Urban Parking Plan, Functional Classification of the Road Network, Electric Mobility Plan, Road Safety Plan, Cycling Mobility Plan, Strategic document on urban logistics. The drafting of the Plans makes use of innovative methods for the quantification of Ravenna’s transport demand (for example, using data derived from the analysis of the cellular network), which are flanked by more traditional site surveys (vehicle counts, origin-destination surveys, counts on PT lines and at stops, etc.). Finally, all phases are accompanied by a vast communication and participation campaign, which sees the involvement of citizens and stakeholders through public meetings and online questionnaires.
