  • Development of Long Term National Transport Strategy for the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan The overall objective of the project is the development of the Long-Term National Transport Strategy for Jordan and of an Action Plan for its implementation for the first 5 years. The Strategy has been delivered preparing a multi-modal implementation pipeline of transport projects, which included the feasibility analysis of five different scenarios of implementation, evaluated and prioritised through cost-benefit analysis methodology. A VISUM transport forecast model and an investment appraisal and prioritisation methodology were developed in order to provide quantitative input for the preparation of the Strategy. Capacity building activities of the staff of the Ministry of Transport complemented the project activities.   [tw_sh_column][tw_sh_column_item item_animation=”none” item_animation_offset=”” column_size=”1 / 3″][/tw_sh_column_item][tw_sh_column_item item_animation=”none” item_animation_offset=”” column_size=”1 / 3″][/tw_sh_column_item][tw_sh_column_item item_animation=”none” item_animation_offset=”” column_size=”1 / 3″] [/tw_sh_column_item][/tw_sh_column] [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]
  • An ex-post evaluation of transport infrastructure charging policy: update of the external cost handbook and impact assessment of future legislative proposals The project is articulated in two stages. A first part of the project dealt with the ex-post assessment of the impacts deriving from the application of  the “Eurovignette Directive” which sets the framework for road user charging policy at the European level. The second part of the project carried out an ex-ante impact assessment of the future legislative proposals for road infrastructure charging that will be presented to the European Parliament and the Council.

  • Technical assistance to the TranSafe-Alp project TranSAFE-Alp project had the objective of improving the levels of safety and security on the Alpine road network and the management of emergencies, with the final aim of reducing fatalities caused by natural critical events and road accidents. The Veneto Region, the leading partner, commissioned TRT Trasporti e Territorio to provide technical assistance for supporting project management and to contribute with technical and scientific research in several related activities. TRT also developed a financial reporting tool, the identification of the technical requirements of the JITES tool and leaded the coordination of the evaluation activities conducted for assessing the project results.

  • The role of women in the green economy – the issue of mobility TRT and IRS Istituto per la Ricerca Sociale have carried out a report on behalf of the European Parliament, Directorate General for Internal Policies of the European Union, which aims at highlighting the characteristics of gender mobility and in particular of women mobility. The study finds its justification from the European Community strategy towards the realization of equality between women and men (European Commission, Strategy for equality between women and men, 2010-2015) and in the Road Map in order to achieve the European targets 20-20-20 (European Parliament resolution of the 11 March 2008).

  • Public Transport Plan: Varese Hospital TRT carried out the Public transport plan of Varese Hospital (about 1.900 workers). The objectives of the plan are: to promote the safety and sustainable access to the Hospital by foot and cycling, safer link between the centre of city and the hospital area; to optimize the use of the car, reducing car dependency for the hospital’s workers i.e. improving carpooling and car sharing solution; the definition of new parking lots regulation and pricing system for workers.

  • COMPASS – Optimised Co-Modal Passenger Transport for ReducingCarbon Emissions The COMPASS project identified and analysed key trends that affect mobility patterns now and in the future to identify the needs of current and future travellers. The project also identified ICT and ITS-based solutions that have the potential to improve co-modality in passenger transport and assessed them through a number of case studies.

  • Study to estimate electric vehicle load profiles for selected EU countries based on travel survey data This study was aimed at building a database of grid load profiles for electric vehicles in six European countries – France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, UK – based on car driving patterns. Data on car driving patterns was collected by means of a sample survey involving 600 individuals in each country. Each participant filled in a on-line (CAWI) car driving diary for a period of seven days. The database allows to estimate individual charging profiles and then daily (24 hours) load profiles under assumptions on the share of electric vehicles in the fleet and on their technical features.

  • Introduction of measures (including a bike sharing system) to promote cycling in eastern Lake Iseo area Comunità Montana Sebino Bresciano (Local Authority) and CARIPLO (Bank Foundation) promoted a feasibility study for the development of cycle-pedestrian mobility in the area located along the coastal side of the Iseo Lake (North of Italy). TRT produced the feasibility study focused on the design of a bike-sharing service, business model and regulation framework between local authority and transport operators.

  • ASSIST – ASsessing the Social and economic Impacts of past and future Sustainable Transport policy in Europe The main objective of the ASSIST project (ASSessing the Social and economic Impacts of past and future Sustainable Transport policy in Europe) was to provide the EU with sound policy advice on the possible social and economic impacts of future sustainable transport policies that would contribute to the strategic objectives of the EU given by the Lisbon Strategy, the Sustainable Development Strategy and the EU-2020 strategy. The role of TRT concerned the modelling line, as leader of the development of the new tool in cooperation with the project leader Fraunhofer-ISI (Germany). Other partners are NEA (The Netherlands), ProgTrans (Switzerland), FŐMTERV (Hungary), CNRS-LET (France).
