Maximise the modal shift: safely, sustainably, strategically
The wide-spread modal shift towards active travel and micromobility is challenging the urban transport status quo.
Local authorities are under mounting pressure to reflect and embrace this cultural travel change by providing safe and equitable micromobility and active travel opportunity, infrastructure and policy.
Decarbonising the transport network via greener travel alternatives and walking and cycling investment, is a central pillar of the sustainable transport agenda and key to achieving Net Zero targets.
By leveraging intelligent transport systems local authorities can deliver the most effective sustainable urban mobility plans based on real-world evidence.
