- Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan – Metropolitan area of Padua’s (Comepa) Following a public tender, TRT, in cooperation with Technital, Atraki and Avanzi, has been commissioned by the Municipality of Padua for the drafting of the new SUMP for Metropolitan area of Padua (CoMePa). The Plan has been approved by the City Council in January 2020. The first phase of activities ended in October 2016 with the completion of the first set of activities: description of the current status of urban mobility, field surveys, organization of participatory events to gather stakeholders positions and construction of the multimodal transport simulation model. The resignation of the City Council in November 2016, led to the suspension of activities. In September 2017, the dialogue within the CoMePa resumed with the aim of proceeding with the drafting of a SUMP, being Padua one of the 18 Municipalities that – on a voluntary basis – started the process of transport planning at metropolitan scale. In 2018 the SUMP was completed with the Plan Proposal presented to the technical and political bodies of the Municipalities of the Padua metropolitan area. The Plan Proposal was discussed in different meetings with technical and political bodies of CoMePa . The third phase was completed with the quantitative assessments of the Plan interventions and the drafting of the final document of the PUMS to be adopted and approved by the Municipalities . The participatory process adopted for the SUMP development led to the inclusion of different measures to encourage the transition towards low carbon mobility through: modal shift actions; the introduction of a vehicle access control area (Low Emission Zone -LEZ) for Padua; the promotion of penetration of electric traction and low environmental impact vehicles in the central area.

- Drafting of the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan of the city of Parma (Italy) Following a public tender, TRT has been selected by the City of Parma for the drafting of the new SUMP. The first step has led to the definition of the strategic guidelines of the Plan while, during 2016, the SUMP has been drafted in a pre-approval form. The SUMP process has been developed through the following activities: reconstruction of the knowledge in the area of transport and mobility; analysis of its strengths and weaknesses; identification of targets that have been selected by policy makers, stakeholders and citizens (that have contributed through the on-line survey conducted in support to the SUMP); drafting of the SUMP guidelines that have been approved by the City Council (Sep. 2015); definition of the alternative SUMP scenarios (successively shared among policy makers, stakeholders and citizen representatives); technical, economic, environmental and social evaluation of the SUMP scenarios; identification of the best SUMP scenario. The Plan has been officially approved by the City Council on 21st March 2017 and has undergone a SEA (Strategic environmental assessment). For more information Documents available on comune.parma.it (only available in italian) “Parma’s SUMP: the first in Italy combined with a Strategic Environmental Assessment”. Case study published on Eltis Platform 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.

- Alessandria – Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan and updating of the Urban Traffic Plan The Municipality of Alessandria awarded TRT to draft the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) and to update the Urban Traffic Plan (UTP). The SUMP-UTP process was developed along four steps: the background analysis of the mobility-related sector and its environmental, social and economic impacts in Alessandria, including the development of extensive surveys (traffic, parking supply and demand, public transport passengers counts); the identification of the strategies for the construction of the SUMP/UTP scenarios, as a result of the background analysis as well as the objectives and the priorities raised by the local Administration; the design of different scenarios: reference solution and SUMP scenario (short period – 2 years and long period – 10 years); the evaluation of the alternative scenarios through the implementation of an AIMSUN transport model for the urban area. In addition, specific detailed documents such as the Parking Plan and the Urban Public Transport Plan have been developed. The SUMP-UTP was adopted with resolution no. 168/16110-220 of the City Administration on 9/06/2017. Following the establishment of a new municipal administration, in 2019 TRT subsequently updated the plan and supported the administrative process of the new version until the final approval. After the adoption in September 2019, the updated SUMP-UTP document in its final version was approved by the City Council on 10/06/2020 with resolution no. 31 [tw_button icon=”” link=”http://www.trt.it/en/projects/” size=”small” rounded=”false” style=”flat” hover=”default” color=”#223468″ target=”_self”]Projects[/tw_button]
- Preparation of the Urban Mobility Plan of the city of Prato in Italy TRT, as a result of a tendering procedure, has been selected by the City of Prato to support their offices in the preparation of the SUMP. The Plan takes as reference methodology the “SUMP guidelines” prepared by the EU Commission (with the contribution, among others, of TRT). The SUMP process has been developed in four steps: background analysis of the mobility-related framework and its environmental, social and economic impact in Prato; identification of the strategies for the construction of the SUMP scenarios, as a result of the background analysis, the selected objectives and the priorities raised through public listening (surveys and thematic/territorial focus groups); design of two different scenarios: reference solution and SUMP scenario – the latter is characterised by a set of coherent transport measures aimed at achieving specific objectives; evaluation procedure, implementing a ex ante transport model (AIMSUN) and a policy evaluation procedure (MOMOS) derived from the Urban Road Map 2030 tool. The SUMP of Prato has been presented to the local community, stakeholders and decision makers in October 2016. The Plan has been approved by the City Council in June 2017. TRT was also responsible of the drafting of the Parking Master Plan and the Urban Traffic Plan of the city of Prato In 2022, TRT also drafted Prato’s e-Mobility Plan and the SUMP monitoring report in accordance with the indicators of DM 396 of 28/08/2019.

- Study on Urban Mobility – Assessing and improving the accessibility of urban areas This study in urban accessibility has been designed in order to advance the understanding of urban accessibility in order to improve the functioning of urban areas and make the transport system in Europe’s urban areas more efficient. The study, carried out by Ricardo and TRT, comprises various tasks. TRT has played a major role in estimating European urban road congestion costs and comparing relative efficiency of urban passenger transport modes. The welfare economic approach is used to define a measure of congestion cost in terms of deadweight loss in cities. The estimation of congestion costs per year (per capita and at urban level) is based on available congestion indexes for a sample of cities and other relevant information (population, value of time, share of car mode split, car occupancy factor). Delay congestion costs were also estimated. The relative performance of different urban transport modes was assessed in relation to capacity; energy use; CO2 emissions and user cost. The above metrics were assessed for private modes (car and motorcycle) and public transport modes (bus and rail). Also, metrics was assessed for metropolitan areas and medium cities, and for peak (or congested) traffic and off-peak (or uncongested) traffic.
