Overview

Objectives:

The objective of the SPIDER PLUS project is to provide a new 2050 mobility VISION through a Strategic Design & Plan, and a Road Map delivering Sustainable Solutions by then. In this plan electrified rail has a central role both for passengers and freight.

The productivity of the available resources supported by ICT and other technologies, is maximised by the combination of infrastructural nodes with spatial and urban planning integrating the missing links for sustainable mobility and city logistics. The combination of the Time with Space management generates seamless transport chains reducing aggravations and costs.

E/Service, E/Freight, ICT technologies, satellite communications, Galileo are tools for achieving these objectives. Syncro-Mobility is the 2050 SPIDER PLUS MOBILITY motto.
