Catch-MR is the acronym for "Cooperative Approaches to Transport Challenges in Metropolitan Regions". Over a period of three years, seven European metropolitan regions have worked together in the Catch-MR project to identify integrated approaches to a viable trans-port policy for metropolitan regions.
As an INTERREG IVC project, Catch-MR has aimed to identify good practice
examples, from the participating Metropolitan Regions. The partners
found many issues and approaches that they have
in common.
Conclusions and recommendations have been forwarded to help Europe's MR develop sustainable mobility solutions. The results can also motivate bodies at the national and European level to intensify the support given to cooperative actions in MR
They were inspired by the determination shown by politicians and their regional cooperation partners to achieve new solutions based on the opportunities - and limitations - presented by each Metropolitan Region's unique setting

Plan for compact settlements – sustainable transport depends on thisPlan for compact settlements – sustainable transport depends on thisRecommended actions:
Use the potentials of (re)densification, especially surrounding nodes of the public transportation system
Ensure a mix of compatible uses and a good local supply of goods and services
Protect the green structures and make public space more attractive, to make dense settlements an enjoyable place to live

Introduce an organization for the coordination of transport services in the MRIntroduce an organization for the coordination of transport services in the MR
Practical examples:
Integrated organisation of public transport services – Transport’s Agency
Integrated fare “Metrebus Lazio” – Integrated tickets Oslo
Recommended actions:
Achieve political agreement on the vision and principles as a means to improve service, efficient mobility and the environment for the whole region
Try to simplify the organization(s) that deliver(s) services to public transport. By simplifying the funding and management structure, the owners of public transport companies
are more able to see opportunities, make strategic decisions and attain efficiency
Focus on the strategic level in your Metropolitan Region, and try to simplify the structure of zone and fares. Develop joint investment programs. Possibilities for
competition among service providers should be considered within the context of achieved in stages
Activate new sources of transport fundingActivate new sources of transport fundingRecommended actions:
Design and provide new transport options before the charging scheme is introduced
Practical examples:
Buy new trains in return for more services
Activate new sources of transport fundingActivate new sources of transport funding
Practical examples:
Road user charging, road pricing and congestion charging (Oslo – Gothenburg Region - Roma)
Increased competitiveness for public transport and improved access to the city through reduced fares for Metrebus Lazio (annual card for public transport)
Recommended actions:
Introducing road user charging as a local initiative, with management of the funds at the city/ regional level, ensures subsidiarity
Open policy decision will help to achieve long-term support
Transparent financial management gives public guarantees and legitimacy
Additional external funding is the key to success – introduce cost sharing with national/EU bodies.
Make intermodal nodes more attractive placesMake intermodal nodes more attractive places
Practical examples:
Praterstern rail station - Vienna
Tiburtina station - Roma
The intermodal node – Provincia di Roma
Recommended actions:
Provide easy access and transfer between different transportation nodes
Provide multiple services that could attract more people
Identify and try to meet the needs and expectations of users
Ensure public safety in the design and management of interchanges
Make the interchange attractive and user friendly, as well as technically effective

Practical examples:
Signaling systems and sections of block
Elongation of the docks
Elimination of level crossings
Recommended actions:
Introduce more frequent service

A sustainable strategyAs Malagrotta will soon be saturate, Rome has considered, in the frame of its environmental management strategies, to dedicate a particular attention to recover different waste fractions, among others organic ones, and to increase the selected collection. In particular, in the area of North-West province of Rome (in Maccarese), AMA built a plant for the production of high quality compost. Moreover, in this frame AMA obtained the authorisation to build a section for the anaerobic treatment in order to produce biogas as energy source for own electric requirements and biomethane to fuel waste collection heavy duty vehicles. When realized, it is planned a production of 10,000,000 Nmc/y of raw biogas, whose a part will produce, after upgrading, around 1,800,000 Nmc/y of biomethane, together with electric power to be injected into the grid.
