Module 1 – Concept & Approach

Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans: What is a SUMP? • Definition of Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP):

‘A Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan is a Strategic Plan designed to satisfy the mobility needs of people and businesses in cities and their surroundings for a better quality of life.

It builds on existing planning practices and takes due consideration of integration, participation, and evaluation principles.’

Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans: Changing Emphasis • Looking at longer-term horizon for setting the vision, objectives and targets • Taking into account wider geographical area and cross boundary travel • Building stakeholder involvement into the process more fully to get better ownership of the Plan; • Focusing on the contribution of transport to supporting the wider policy agenda • Demonstrating clear linkages between objectives and measures implemented to achieve outcomes.

JASPERS EU Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) Training

Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans: Scope of SUMPs SUMP policies and measures should address the following: • All modes and forms of transport • Entire urban agglomeration • Public and private • Passenger and freight

• Motorised and non-motorised • Moving and parking • Door to door mobility

JASPERS EU Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) Training

Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans: Benefits of SUMPs • Added value of intensive strategic planning within urban areas • Cities/towns are able to: – Analyse and assess local transport problems and challenges – Identify effective and cost-efficient measures to overcome challenges – Understand different development scenarios and policy options – Understand interests and expectations of transport system users

– Develop a common vision on urban transport development – Choose and agree an appropriate feasible set of measures – Prioritise and schedule measures: • According to most urgent problems • Easy-to-achieve ‘quick wins’ • In line with available budget and implementation capacities

Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning: A few more thoughts….

Transport and movement as a ‘support’, not the main reason...

JASPERS EU Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) Training

Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning: Type of ‘place’ we want to deliver

JASPERS EU Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) Training

Suustainable Urban Mobility Planning: Understanding types of users & their needs • Daily low salary ‘support’ staff from relatively nearby, antisocial hours • Twice a year visitors coming for weekend from the country • Regular commuter, perhaps flexible working using IT

• Business person in high pressure job • Teenagers shopping or visit to the cinema • Elderly person or school child with mobility or safety needs • City centre young couple, living to enjoy life….

• Small business manager who needs deliveries efficiently

Thinking about the total journey not just one part of it…
