Project summary

The Urban Mobility Flows (UMF) platform is designed to unlock an important capability for transport agencies, city councils and transport operators. It delivers visual insights into journey patterns across multiple public and private modes of urban transport on a single dashboard. The aim of this analysis is to reveal discrepancies between infrastructure, service design, business models and actual travel habits, and to help determine goals for service optimisation. By improving transport offerings in ways that drive adoption of new habits that are aligned with sustainability goals, cities will be able to further extend the relative market share of public transport, reduce private car journeys and improve active travel habits for its citizens.

Implementation

After processing the raw data, Theoremus will demonstrate the use of the platform in workshops, where SUMC will help to interpret the data and their context.

Following this, the development of digital solutions to be implemented in Debrecen and Ajka will help city councils across Europe to understand the potential of technology in urban planning and in overcoming transport challenges.
