MODAIR - Co-modal Airport
Overview
Background & policy context:
The interconnectivity at European airports is often still limited to urban transport, with in particular very few high-speed train stations. Some of the existing intermodal links do not fully meet the passengers expectations, leading to low usage.
Through cooperation between air and rail stakeholders, as well as inter-modality and transport specialists, ModAir will be able to contribute to the preparation of future EU research and technological development policy.
Objectives:
The ModAir project aims at designing and setting up a mode-overlapping forum, where representatives from the air, rail and urban transport as well as any other relevant actor will contribute to the development and improvement of co-modality and inter-modality for passengers in European airports.
Methodology:
ModAir will build on the projects already funded by the European Commission to give a clear view of the current state of inter-modality and co-modality in the European airports. This is to deliver a roadmap for future research and provide the European Union with a structured group of experts able to help evaluate and select the best ways of implementing the connectivity of airports with other transport modes.
