What is SUMP? It is a way of tackling transport-related problems in urban areas more efficiently. In the Action Plan on Urban Mobility published in 2009, the European Commission proposed to accelerate the take-up of Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans in Europe by providing guidance material, promote best practice exchange, identify benchmarks, and support educational activities for urban mobility professionals.

A Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan requires...
• An integrated approach; the policy relevance of Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans is not limited to mobility and transport, and it is one of its characteristics to involve other municipal and regional departments (for example, land-use, environment, economic development, social inclusion, health, safety) in the planning process. • A clear vision, objectives and measurable targets; The plan should be based on a longterm vision for transport and mobility development for the entire urban agglomeration. It should cover all modes and forms of transport: Public and private, passenger and freight, motorized and non-motorised, moving and parking.
• A participatory approach; Involving citizens and other stakeholders is a basic principle to be followed. • A pledge for sustainability; A pledge for sustainability to balance economic development, social equity and environmental quality In developing a Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan, the view should be broadened beyond transport and mobility and appropriately consider social, economic, environmental, and political institutional criteria. •

Case Study: Copenhagen (#1 in the World) The city offers a variety of favourable cycling conditions — dense urban proximities, short distances and flat terrain — along with an extensive and well-designed system of cycle tracks. This has earned it a reputation as one of the most—possibly the most—bicycle-friendly city in the world. Every day 1.2 million kilometres (0.75 million miles) are cycled in Copenhagen, with 36% of all citizens commuting to work, school or university by bicycle.
