From 13-15 December 2017, the Urban Agenda’s Partnership on Urban Mobility held its fifth meeting in Malmö (Skåne Region).

The meeting was all about getting closer to the Action Plan, the Partnership’s most important deliverable. The partners discussed and reviewed every single one of the initial set of actions that had emerged from one year of Partnership work. All these efforts will flow into the Public Feedback, an online survey on the draft Action Plan, which will be open from 6 February to 16 March 2018.

The Partnership also decided to focus more on communication. The outreach activities will include a series of workshops organised by partners, including Karlsruhe, EUROCITIES, Gdynia, and Nijmegen. Be sure to read more about these activities on this website!

Urban mobility, just as all other Urban Agenda for the EU priority themes, has a strong horizontal dimension and linkages with other topics. This is why the Urban Mobility partners discussed possibilities to cooperate with other Partnerships, such as Air Quality, Digital Transition, Public Procurement, Sustainable Land Use, and Urban Poverty. The results of this brainstorming will be followed up in the next meetings.

What’s next?

• The Public Feedback opens on 6 February 2018 and is accessible for six weeks via this website. Have your say and shape the Urban Mobility Action Plan!
• The sixth Partnership Meeting will take place during the IT-TRANS Conference in Karlsruhe from 6 to 8 March 2018.
