2.1 Mobility in Urban Areas
Cities deliver a lot of services (jobs, education, culture, hospitals, …) not only for citizens, but also for rural communities around the cities. Technical Committee 2.1 "Mobility in Urban Areas" focuses on inhabitant’s mobility needs in the commuting areas in order to make sure that all transportation needs in relation with the services delivered by cities will be taken into consideration. It will take into account the complexity of urban areas (integration with land planning, multimodality, public support, new mobility modes). (extract from the Strategic Plan)
