Case studies

PAV (Planning for Autonomous Vehicles) is an Interreg North Sea Region (NSR)-funded project that will help cities develop sustainable spatial planning strategies that include AVs.  PAV can help other local authorities integrate autonomous mobility by making knowledge more accessible.

“Good Move” is the sustainable urban mobility plan of the Brussels-Capital Region for the period 2020-2030. One of the first actions delivered by Good Move was to introduce a default region-wide speed limit of 30 km/h, with only a few exceptions for the main traffic arteries.

The SAFE-UP project, with its ambition to make future mobility safer for both occupants and vulnerable road users, held its final project conference last month on 17 May 2023.

The AV pilot in Almere is the only one of the five PAV pilots that took a virtual approach. It simulates the introduction of AV buses to Almere’s unique Bud Rapid Transport (BRT) network and shows us a glimpse of what AVs could mean for public transport in Almere’s future.

Urban mobility measures have great energy-saving potential and can be implemented at a range of governance levels. This case study showcases some of the measures that have been implemented around the EU.

Sofia is trying to progressively develop sustainable mobility solutions and behaviour. Faced with high congestion and significant air pollution, the city has adopted an integrated approach to improve accessibility, reduce congestion and improve air quality and living conditions.

Le Mans and Poitiers to improve their mobility infrastructure, specifically in the context of passenger information displays at the bus stations.

The Horizon 2020 ReVeAL project – Regulating Vehicle Access for Improved Liveability – examined how UVARs could support cities to develop new mobility management strategies, as well as explored the associated pricing mechanisms and regulatory measures.

The playlist shows videos of Handshake's immersive symposia and study tours. The many videos (of Amsterdam and many other cities) of cycling infrastructure act as an alternative means to visiting these partner cities.
