ECOMM 2017, Maastricht, June2, 2017 State of the art of SUMP implementation
ECOMM 2017, Maastricht, June2, 2017 State-of-the-art in CZ Relatively well developed • Actions towards support of PT and use of smart technologies • Planning of cycling infrastructure Needs more focus and support • Stakeholders involvement and full participatory approach during the whole planning and implementation process • Mobility management and its measures • Promotion of sustainable transport modes, campaigns • Better monitoring and evaluation of the already implemented policies, transport behaviour surveys, data collection Hana Brůhová-Foltýnová, bruhova@koltech.cz, +420 736 434 347
ECOMM 2017, Maastricht, June2, 2017 Barriers of SUMPs implementation • Communication among relevant departments at city halls (no mobility manager) as well as with other stakeholders • Local elections and personal changes at city halls • Missing legislation for complex ´urban mobility´ issues • Making visions and involvement and coordination of key stakeholders • No or a lack of finances allocated to SUMPs preparation and implementation Hana Brůhová-Foltýnová, bruhova@koltech.cz, +420 736 434 347
