ELAN - Mobilising citizens for vital cities
|
|
| |
The CIVITAS-ELAN Project comprises the
cities of Ljubljana, Gent, Zagreb (as leading cities), Brno and
Porto (as learning cities) which have developed a common workplan
for the CIVITAS Programme. Based on a cooperation agreement signed
by the mayors of the five cities, the common mission statement for
CIVITAS-ELAN is: "To 'mobilise' our citizens by developing
with their support clean mobility solutions for vital cities, ensuring
health and access for all." |

Project
Goal/Expected Results |
| |
Based upon the eight CIVITAS policy fields, the ELAN project
has the objective of mobilising citizens, creating vital cities,
ensuring health and access for all by:
- increasing energy efficiency through comprehensive energy
management and innovative energy recovery/ saving techniques;
reducing dependency on fossil fuels by increasing use and production
of biofuels; increasing use of CNG; cleaning up local vehicle
fleets through a mix of technologies/ fuels; and initiating
local and European "green procurement" approaches.
(policy field: Alternative fuels & clean energy efficient
vehicles)
- implementing effective, high quality mobility solutions;
integrating transport modes and local-regional public transport;
giving priority to PT on the road, at intersections and (P&R)
interchanges; planning intermodal infrastructure with active
public involvement (Policy field: Collective transport services
& intermodal integration)
- preparing for a sustainable congestion charging scheme; establishing
a public dialogue on pricing; returning public space to pedestrians;
managing space to increase its quality and its use by sustainable
modes (Policy field: Demand management)
- adopting a targeted mobility marketing approach; providing
mobility management plans to major institutions; making walking
and cycling more attractive; establishing a mobility dialogue
with the citizens; providing high-quality mobility information
to the citizens (Policy field: Influencing travel behaviour)
- developing integrated & target-group specific safety
and security strategies; increasing road safety (especially
for vulnerable road users); improving security in Public Transport
(Policy field: Safe & secure mobility)
- implementing flexible demand-responsive mobility services
and agencies; developing car sharing concept further; providing
a coordinated response to major events (Policy field: Innovative
mobility services)
- rationalising freight distribution; improving institutional
cooperation on "freight" (Policy field: Freight distribution)
