The city of Valencia is fostering a change on citizen’s mobility behaviour, by focusing on mobility policies towards more environmental transport modes. The City Hall of Valencia approved in 2013 the Urban Mobility Plan of Valencia to encourage the use of walking, bicycle and public transport. As a follow-up, the city of Valencia is strongly interested in continuing to introduce new transport services and/or blending them using new business models, in order to reduce CO2 emissions, noise and congestion in the city for both, passenger and freight transport.
Objectives of this pilot
- Design of and advanced concept of intermodal urban transport nodes integrating bikes (and other green transport options), public transport means (train, tramway, metro, bus) and last mile freight distribution through the co-location of new advanced complementary services.
- Detailed assessment of the new intermodal urban transport node (feasibility and impact of the new services proposed and tested)
- Policy recommendations to support the development of the advanced intermodal urban nodes, analysis of policy response and prioritisation.
- Definition of a deployment plan to create a network of urban intermodal nodes with advanced services.
