Overview
Background & policy context:
One contribution to transport sustainability would be to make more efficient use of existing transport facilities and minimise the number of vehicle trips through the use of organisational, information and awareness tools. This is mobility management. It includes strategies such as better information on available public transport, arranging of new collective transport for commuters and students, the co-ordination of car-pooling and public awareness campaigns. The emphasis is on encouraging a voluntary change in behaviour, through the use of specific centres and co-ordinators at a regional, local or site level.
Objectives:
MOSAIC had three main objectives:
- to improve understanding of mobility management by clarifying key concepts, organisational roles and user needs;
- to demonstrate these concepts and evaluate their potential for wider implementation;
- to disseminate the findings and recommendations.
