After that, an analysis of the received requests was done, and the final version of the PUMS was presented. Thence, the last activity has also been successful, and Figure 65 compiles the PUMS analyses from SUMP Cycle Phase 3, where six activities have been covered, another two have been partially covered, and another one has remained unclear.

Thus, by concluding Step 9, PUMS has achieved the third and most important milestone although some information has been missing related to the actions and their implementation, which should be considered for the next PUMS to be able to follow and foster the mobility behavior changes genuinely.

4.4.4. Phase 4 | Implementation & Monitoring

PUMS has presented implementation and monitoring processes throughout the document, especially in Volume II, chapter: (in English, Monitoring and ex-post evaluation of the plan), where it shared the monitoring plan and the monitoring indicators. Therefore, the three steps from the SUMP cycle Phase 4, Implementation & Monitoring, have been explored in the analyses below.

Step 10 manage implementation: PUMS has addressed some information regarding the where it has mentioned, for instance, some implementation phases. On the other hand, information regarding the coordination between the actors to implement the measures

has remained unclear. Hence, PUMS needs to improve its coordination between actors and stakeholders according to the SUMP guidelines to ensure a transparent and integrated implementation process to further succeed with it.

Step 11 monitor, adapt and communicate: PUMS has shown to be aligned with the SUMP guidelines in monitoring progress, which has displayed a methodological framework for its evaluation that includes citizens and stakeholders. Hence, PUMS has been enhancing ownership and guaranteeing public support, which would consequently contribute to the implementation of the plans. In addition, PUMS has defined specific indicators for monitoring progress. In the section (in English, Criteria for measuring/calculating indicators) from Volume II, PUMS has explained in detail all the processes behind the specific indicators, which will further help the plan to adapt and optimize its implementation process.

Step 12 review and learn lessons: PUMS has shared results and lessons from the previously implemented plans through both volumes, as mentioned in the previous steps. This Step is vital to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the previous plans to tackle new challenges and solutions. Hence, it is also expected that for the following plan, Rome will keep analyzing its successes and failures as it has done for PUMS, sharing the results and, most importantly, the lessons gained from what did not materialize as expected. Therefore, Figure 66 presents the summary of the PUMS analyses from SUMP Cycle Phase 4, in which most activities have been covered (six in total), and only one has been partially covered.

In summary, this last Step announces the conclusion of the SUMP cycle with the fourth and last milestone measure implementation evaluated and also establishes the new cycle. Thus, it is well known that Rome has followed most of the SUMP guidelines to create its current plan. Nevertheless, it is time to put into practice and hopefully detach Rome's chaotic image when people think about its mobility.
