Mobility Management oVer Europe: Changing Mobility Patterns
MMOVE supports interregional exchange on sustainable mobility policies for medium sized European cities (populations 50-250,000). Through networking, analysis of best practice and a series of Study Visits MMOVE will raise the level of knowledge and awareness of mobility management innovations. These focus on transport demand and low cost interventions to change public perceptions and behaviour in the way citizens move about our cities. In the final phase of the project partners will work in parallel on feasibility studies to prepare implementation of one good practice locally, and present results and recommendations to regional policy makers.
The MMOVE partnership incorporates 9 local authorities from medium sized cities, 1 region and 1 Municipal Agency. 8 EU states, including 2 new member states are represented, with a broad geographical and cultural diversity. Several of the Northern European partners bring best practice and expertise in mobility management and methodologies.

Ultimately MMOVE aims to influence regional authority policy-making by providing mobility management solutions which will help small and medium sized cities make best use of their mobility infrastructure and services.  Good practice and findings will be collated and classified in a coherent way in the form of a permanent online toolbox for municipalities and transport planners across Europe. Results will also include presentation of critical success factors in transferring mobility interventions across EU regions, to help similar cities to share in the learning.
MMOVE findings, results and recommendations will be disseminated widely through the Eurotowns network of medium sized cities, and through professional forums of mobility planners, city networks and local stakeholders.

MMOVE will make a contribution to European Transport policy (currently under development) and targets by helping medium sized cities to improve road safety, to reduce congestion, to improve air quality and increase take up of sustainable transport forms.
