TUCTE18 – Morning Session: Action Plan for the Future of Mobility by Dr. Beate Müller, Mobility4EU Project Coordinator VDI/VDE Innovation + Technik GmbH
The Action Plan for Transport in Europe in 2030 details measures that address technical topics especially referring to societal aspects and issues for multistakeholder interaction , as e.g. policy, user acceptance, standardisation, collaboration and the integration of the user perspective into the R&D and innovation process. Multiple existing strategies and published roadmaps address these issues in its entirety or for individual modes or freight only. These initiatives are driven by the research community, the industry or policy, but only rarely from a user perspective. The Action Plan produced by Mobility4EU intends to fill this gap and provide recommendations for R&D, deployment, policy and regulatory framework and other implementation-related issues from a user-centered and cross-modal perspective.

by Marie Denninghaus, Policy Coordinator of the European Disability Forum
EDF believes that all people have the right to enjoy seamless, accessible and independent travel. This is in accordance with the EU Treaties that guarantee the right to free movement for all citizens as well as Article 9 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Despite this fact, persons with disabilities can still not fully benefit from this right as the transport system throughout the EU remains largely inaccessible.
by Erzsébet Földesi, Budapest Association of Persons with Physical Disability
The challenge is to develop mainstream solutions for diverse users’ needs that already include users with disabilities. Universal design means the design of products, environments, applications and services to be usable by all people regardless to their age size or abilities, to the greatest extent possible, without the need for adaptation or specialized design.
by Oliver Lah, Head of the Mobility and International Cooperation Research Unit at the Wuppertal Institute for Climate, Environment and Energy
There is substantial potential to improve urban access, air quality, safety and the quality of life in cities along with reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions if an integrated policy approach is applied that combines all intervention areas for transport policy and involves all levels of government.
by Mr. Alkiviadis Tromaras and Aggelos Aggelakakis, Research Associates, CERTH/Hellenic Institute of Transport
nnovation has been at the forefront of the European Union priorities as the best mean to tackle challenging societal issues such as changing demographics, ageing population, dependency on oil, climate change, traffic congestion, increased demand for transport, the rise of globalisation, digital technologies.
TUCTE18 Mobility4EU Final Event – Agenda
TUCTE 2018 Mobility4EU Final Event – Save the Date
The development of the Action Plan was conducted alongside with a multitude of consultation activities, which will be presented in this document. The objective of the consultation activities was to engage a multitude of external stakeholders in the discussions and the development process of the Action Plan to ensure that the perspective of all stakeholders involved in the transport sector are included. The consultation activities consisted of several activities such as conference sessions and collaborative workshops as well as a final consultation activity during TUCTE18, the final dissemination event of the Mobility4EU project.

Mobility4EU 9th Workshop M4EUwith CAMERA: Invitation and Agenda
The aim of the 8th workshop was to collect tangible action items and measures combining the expertise of the participants and to discuss inputs from different perspectives (users, freight, OEMs, suppliers, service providers from all transport modes, active mobility and public transport, actors of seamless mobility services). During a World Café interactive session the participants were divided into five different groups, depending on their field of expertise and/or the stakeholder group they belong to.
Mobility4EU 3rd Workshop Handout
The aim of this project internal workshop was to interactively create a structure and first inputs for the Action Plan. At the outset of the workshop the scope of the action plan was discussed and defined as clearly as possible, concerning especially the demarcation in relation to other roadmaps. Within the following interactive work a general structure of the action plan was generated.
The Vision summarises the results of the assessment on trends and challenges, ranked solutions and scenarios. It has been developed within a creative process together with experts from passenger and freight transport from all modes as well as user representatives. User-centredness and the holistic approach that includes passengers, freight and all modes of transport, is considered key to develop mobility services that focus on real human-needs and enable a truly integrated transport system.

The objective of the stakeholder consultation on the Mobility4EU Action Plan is to address and engage different stakeholders such as industry, user representatives, ETPs, research, policy makers, and the research and policy units at the European Commission.
By Mrs. Sandra Wappelhorst, Researcher at the International Council on Clean Transportation, (ICCT) United Kingdom
In 2016, the European Commission proposed an Effort Sharing Regulation aiming at a 30% reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 below the 2005 baseline in sectors not covered by the European Union’s emissions trading scheme, including buildings, industry, transport, agriculture and waste.
Imre Keseru (VUB) presents a short explanation of the MAMCA process and a detailed presentation of the results of the scenario evaluation.
The MAMCA evaluation highlighted the preferences of the stakeholder groups towards two conflicting scenarios: Digital Nomads and Minimum Carbon. While the Digital Nomads scenario is characterized by individualistic mobility and increasing travel demand, the Minimum Carbon scenario is based on shared resources and decarbonisation.
The “Consensus Building Workshop” of the project Mobility4EU was held on 24 October 2017 in Brussels, together with external experts. It forms the final step within the structured stakeholder consultation process, the Multi-Actor-Multi-Criteria Analysis (MAMCA) that is embedded in the project.

As a first step of MAMCA, four scenarios for transport and mobility in Europe in 2030 were co-created. In the subsequent steps, these scenarios were evaluated and consensus was achieved through a workshop where stakeholders discussed potential conflicts and synergies between the scenarios. In general, the discussion showed that stakeholders support the merging of the two scenarios (SC2 – Digital nomads and SC4 – Minimum carbon). The list of solutions derived from these two scenarios are used to build the Mobility4EU vision for mobility and transport in 2030 and are fed into the action plan.

As a first step of MAMCA, four scenarios for transport and mobility in Europe in 2030 were co-created. In the subsequent steps, these scenarios are evaluated with the involvement of the stakeholders. The results of the weighting are presented in this deliverable for each stakeholder group. Traffic safety emerged as one of the top priorities being the number one priority for six stakeholder groups. The criteria weights for each stakeholder group and the evaluation scores of the impact of scenarios that we will identify in the next step of the MAMCA
will be used to calculate the ranking of the scenarios for each stakeholder group.

Scenarios represent a range of possible developments in the future. An important assumption of the scenario method is that several different futures are possible. The scenario building process outlined in this section ensures that the scenarios were constructed in a participative manner, which is a core feature of the Mobility4EU project.

In order to build a sustainable transport system for people and goods that meets the needs of all users, a truly integrated and seamless approach is needed, and the full potential of transformative technologies has to be exploited. This can only be achieved if user-centeredness, cross-modality and technology transfer become the paradigm of shaping future transport. Mobility4EU is a project funded by the European Commission that focuses on these topics and is working on delivering an action plan towards a user-centric and cross-modal European transport system in 2030.
Mobility4EU is a Coordination and Support Action of the European Commission. The project will deliver a vision for the European transport system in 2030 and an action plan including a roadmap to implement that vision. The work towards that vision and action plan is based on the identification and assessment of societal challenges that will influence future transport demand and supply and the compilation of a portfolio of promising cross-modal technical and organisational transport solutions. The present document reports on the results of researching trends and societal drivers impacting mobility demands and transport in Europe until 2030.
The present document reports on the results of researching trends and societal drivers impacting mobility demands and transport in Europe until 2030. We provide a comprehensive vision of societal drivers having an impact on mobility and freight. The trends we study include societal trends, political trends, economic trends, technological trends and legal trends.
Mobility4eu establishes the future vision of a transport system in 2030 in Europe. Its objectives are: identifying, assessing and analysing the influence of societal drivers on transport demand creating a sound understanding of behavioral and societal factors; developing an Action Plan and Roadmap for innovative solutions for mobility to advance the agenda of the transport sector and society at large; taking into account user needs by engaging relevant stakeholders and the general public in a participatoty project.
