Urban mobility in Europe: Key challenges & policies
• Congestion
• Road safety
• Air pollution and climate
change
– 70% of pollutant emissions
caused
by urban traffic
• Journey time reliability
• Physical inactivity
2
In urban areas, 68% of road fatalities are vulnerable road users (VRUs) (2011/12) - EC Road Safety Vademecum
The Lancet 2012
Around 600.000 EU citizens die
prematurely every year,
hundreds of thousands of other
people suffer from illness due to
preventable causes, such as
pollution from exhausts of
diesel vehicles, and nitrogen
dioxide (WHO 2015)
HEAT tool
Quantifying the economic
health benefits of active travel
Addressing multiple societal
challenges in one go
Unlock investment in active
travel across different policy
domains
Enhanced traffic modelling
Put active travel on equal footing
Data and apps
Use tracking data to analyse
mobility behaviour
and optimise policy
Apps and awareness raising
Gamification
Electromobility Evidence-based decision making

Mobility as a Service
• Positive if
– Promoting sustainable travel
– Improving efficiency
– Leveraging personalized approach
• Risks of purely commercial approach
– Dis-incentivising sustainable trips
– Higher costs for the user or transport provider and
unequal services
– Creating a disconnect between user, transport
provider and transport authority
28 February 2018
4 Automated vehicles
Travel behaviour
+: removal of private cars in favour of sust.modes
-: projected increase in kms travelled
Spatial
+ Redundant off and on-street parking
- Urban sprawl and longer commuting trips
Social
+ Enhance accessibility
- Risk of increased social division if market-driven
Road safety
+ Reduction of driver distraction
- intermediate levels
- Interaction with non-automated road users
Ethical issues
Traffic efficiency
+ Richer data for traffic management
- Road space management - “More pain than gain” in
short-medium term due to co-existence and higher
safety margins
Infrastructure
Investments depend on AV implementation path
New business models must be found
- 5 -
Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans –
The European approach to an integrated
set of policies and measures
The challenges: How can Europe reach its ambitious policy goals? How can
cities and metropolitan regions develop effective mobility policies? And how
can this be coordinated across Europe?
The EU’s solution: Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMP)
Long-term development vision based on performance assessment.
Balanced and integrated development of all transport modes
High level of cooperation and coordination between all authorities in the “functional city”.
Transparent and participatory approach.
Monitoring and quality control
Implementation encouraged through funding and practical support
SUMP = Guidance for a
Quality Planning Process
- 6 -
Supported by CIVITAS and other EU Initiatives!
What measures are European cities implementing in their
SUMPs?
SUMP: integration of vision & policy goals,
synergies in implementation & operation, and monitoring & evaluation

Ongoing analysis
of collected data
• Analogic Vs Digital: who plays better?
• Incentive-based schemes need to be customised for each campaign and target
• App usability, backend system, registration processes, rewarding schemes: keep them simple!
• Data quality and speed (real time) of delivery are fundamental elements
• Thorough testing phases are the basis for successful implementation of campaigns
• Learning share among partners is the added value of project collaboration
• Campaigns management: public, private, both?

Should the users of
new mobility services have
a “Bill of Rights?” • A series of questions
Benjamin de la Peña
- 51 -
Should we have a right to know what other transportation options are
available and what prices/fares are available?
OPTIONS AND FARES
- 52 -
Should we have the right to be informed immediately if the service provider or vehicle has been hacked or breached?
SURVEILLANCE
- 53 -
Should we have the right to know what data is being collected about us and our
behavior and movement?
Should we have the right to know who is collecting the data or who the data is
being shared with and used for?
USE OF DATA
- 54 -
Should we have the right to know how our ride will impact the environment, or congestion, or the quality of life of our
community, or of other externalities our ride may be generating or exacerbating?
A CLEAN ENVIRONMENT
- 55 -
Should we have a right to non-discriminatory fares that do not overly privilege those who can pay more nor overly encumber those who can only
pay less?
FARES & PRICES
- 56 -
Should we have right to ride in comfort and dignity?
Should we have a right to be protected (and rescued) from harassment and
molestation, particularly in shared rides?
COMFORT & DIGNITY
- 57 -
Should we have the right to infrastructure or access to infrastructure
that provides multiple transportation options to help us access necessary
services and provide the mobility we need to get where we want to go?
INFRASTRUCTURE
- 58 -
Should we have the right to be informed immediately if the service provider or vehicle has been hacked or breached?

Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 723201
www.h2020-coexist.eu
CoEXist in brief • Uncertainties for EU & US Local Authorities
– Current hype creates unrealistic expectations
of the technology (pro-innovation bias)
– (Connected) Infrastructure requirements are
not clearly formulated yet.
– Long transition phase where conventional
vehicles coexist with partially and fully
automated vehicles.
– Result: Automation not mentioned in strategic transport plans
• Objective: – The mission of the H2020 CoEXist project is to systematically increase the capacity of local
authorities and other urban mobility stakeholders to get ready for the transition towards a shared road network with increasing levels of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs)
• Automation-Ready: – Micro- and Macroscopic Transport Modelling
• VISSIM and VISUM
– Hybrid Road Infrastructure
• Automation-ready design recommendations
– Local Transport Policies
• Automation-ready action plans

– Mobility hubs, including EV charging stations, and “whole community” solutions
• PARIS
– Large scale one-way EV carsharing and bikesharing (organized by a multi-jurisdictional regional body) and peer-to-peer carsharing
– Diverse, cutting edge deployments, such as of shared electric scooters and shared refrigerated cargo vans
• BRUSSELS
– National/European Union policy frameworks backed by funding
– Local operations/innovations (e.g., MoBIB card) resulting from substantial political commitments
