VIA NOVA – Healthy Mobility and Intelligent Intermodality In Alpine Areas
VIANOVA with partners from all the 7 Alpine countries is a project that aims to reduce car traffic (shift solo car trips) and at the same time to motivate the inhabitants for non-motorised and sustainable modes of transport based on physical activities (cycling & walking). A cross-sectoral approach (land use planning - mobility – health) will combine measures that fit perfectly to the sensible Alpine Space. The model like demonstrations will be implemented on 3 levels. 1) Improvement of objective situation of public space for physical activities (air quality, infrastructure, barriers, organisation, intermodality), 2) Improvement of perception of public space for cycling / walking and 3) User motivation for sustainable model choice. Results will be: well documented case studies, training sessions & materials for planners and policy recommendations.
