The conference entitled "Sustainable urban mobility planning: efficient transport for smarter cities and better quality of life for citizens", organized by AREA Science Park, was held Thursday, September 25th at the Congress Centre of Padriciano (Trieste).
The event addressed several issues related to the planning and management of urban transpor. In particular, it tried to find innovative options and solutions to make home-to-school travelling more sustainable; to foster economic, social and environmental sustainability in home-to-work travelling; as well as include tourist mobility patterns in SUMPs.
The conference was articulated in three main stages: a pitch event, where selected organizations presented innovative technological solutions to the problems of urban mobility; a section dedicated to the exchange of experiences and technical know-how among officials involved in the training activities of the BUMP project; a presentation of the solutions for sustainable mobility offered by other European countries.
