Achievements (EN): MAP 2030 (Seamless Mobility Action Plan for 2030) presents recommendations for policy changes and investment initiatives at EU, national and regional levels. They will help build a system of seamless door-to-door journeys in the North West Europe (NWE) region, focused on the needs of the individual traveller.
S-MAP 2030 sets out a vision and guiding principles that will help achieve a radical improvement in daily door-to-door journeys in NWE by 2030 by identifying opportunities (“development potentials”) and market barriers (“crunch points”) that need to be unlocked to facilitate seamless journeys.
S-MAP 2030 is based on an analysis of journeys completed in the NWE region in 2012, on expert reviews of current European good practice, on consultations with industry and passegnerorgansiations and round table seminars involving representatives of representatives of the European Commssion. Detailed Findings are available upon request (S-MAP 2030 Technical Report, November 2012; S-MAP 2030 Technical Report of NWE Journey Audits, November 2012).
Published in 12/2012 , feedback from numerous key mobility stakeholders in North-West Europe has led to futher elaborating short and long-term recommendations of this S-MAP 2030 Action Plan towards policy makers and stakeholders at all levels whose decisions and actions can alone make it happen.
