TIDE Overview and Context

TIDE WorkshopStuttgart, 12-13 November 2013

Karen Vancluysen, Polis

TIDE Mission Statement

• Make a range of new and feasible solutions easily accessible to address key challenges of urban transport such as energy efficiency, decarbonisation, demographic change, safety, access for all, and new economic and financial conditions

• Enhance the broad take-up of 15 innovative urban transport and mobility measures throughout Europe to establish them as mainstream measures

• Create a more favourable climate for innovation

• Address challenges in a collaborative and integrated way and shorten the implementation path towardsthe deployment of innovation

Understanding Innovation

• ‘Idea, practice or object that is perceived as new by an individual or other unit of adoption’ (Rogers) and that provides a better solution to existing challenges than traditional measures in urban transport and mobility• higher potential to effectively respond to current challenges than already well-

established measures

• TIDE: • Pragmatic perspective: mainstream in some countries versus new in other parts

of Europe• Comparably new to large parts of Europe

Innovators – Early adopters – Early majority – Late majority – Laggards

Scope of activities

• Create networking opportunities to bring together a wide range of stakeholders for exchange on urban transport innovation

• Spread knowledge and provide guidance

• Apply a wide range of tools and products to encourage and enable stakeholders to work towards the take-up of urban transport innovations

• Focus on ‘real life’ by providing practical showcases

• Work with cities to demonstrate how the actual implementation of selected innovative concepts can be successfully prepared

Effective Outreach

Leading and Champion Cities

Working Steps

1. Selection of innovative measures and cities

2. Transferability analysis and guidelines for implementers• Success factors and barriers

3. Implementation scenarios and preparation of take-up• Partner cities and champion cities

4. Training and exchange

5. Analysis of added value and recommendations• CBA, impact analysis, research & policy recommendations

Training and exchange

• Train 50 European cities via dedicated events on the successful implementation of the innovative measures covered in TIDE

• Ensure an intense exchange between the TIDE cities within each thematic cluster• Offer webinars and e-learning to reach an even wider circle of cities• Encourage discussion on SUMPs and highly innovative cutting-edge solutions
