BAPTS - Boosting
Advanced Public Transport Systems
Project
Goal
To improve the sustainable urban mobility in the metropolitan
areas and cities of NWE, with a view to improving traffic fluidity
by the use of traffic management systems, and by strengthening
the efficiency and complementarity of different types of public
transport systems.
Specific objectives:
To create a so called Advanced Public Transport system in dense
populated areas in the NWE in order to generate a maximum supply
of travelers (users). The main activities in the project are focussed
on defining and carrying out actions aimed at developing and implementing
joint pilot actions to identify solutions that will help to reduce
the negative trans-national impacts of commuting between cities,
towns and rural areas.
Expected
Results
More than 40 demonstration and dissemination actions in the ten
partners from 7 countries across the North-West European cooperation
space.
