Approach of presentation Focus on ‘Sustainable Urban Mobility’ indicator
Also draw on my five years on the Expert Panel listening to other experts
Presentation will look at: Scope – Which urban mobility elements we are looking for Each of the three parts to the Application Form:
Present situation – where you are now Past performance – how you got to where you are now Future plans – where you intend to go
Main messages and sources of information

We are also interested in your Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) or equivalent
Need to mention extent of
participation and
engagement
Need to talk about
integration: between
modes; and between land use
and transport.

A strategic / systematic approach is important for all indicators!

Present situation (Section 3a): Data

Modal shares(journeys < 5km)
Plus: Proportion of population living
within 300 metres of an hourly (or more frequent) public transport service
Proportion of buses operating in the city that are: Low emission (at least Euro VI);
and Alternatively fuelled (electric,
hydrogen, LNG etc.)

Data is very important in many indicators

Infrastructure:Map?
Numbers of public transport vehicles – to give a sense of the scale of public transport
Mobility flows – to give a sense of the issues your city faces
Infrastructure management tools – how do you manage transport?
Any disadvantages or constraints of relevance to transport – By the sea? Historic centre? Hilly?
Governance arrangements and responsibilities – particularly over public transport
SUMP (or equivalent) in force –include underlying principles

Past performance (Section 3b): Measures to:

Increase cycling Increase public transport
Increase walking Decrease, improve efficiency of, car use
Increase use of alternative fuels/vehicles
Increaseshared mobility
Improve environmentalperformance of freight

Covering all points is important for all indicators!

Future plans (Section 3c) Are there plans to evaluate and revise your SUMP (or
equivalent)?
What does your strategy say about the future? Are there any objectives, e.g. for changing modal share,
improving environmental performance of freight, increasing use of shared mobility / alternatively-fuelled mobility?
Any other changes that are planned, e.g. to governance, stakeholder participation / engagement, underlying principles that govern transport policy?

Main messages – Sustainable Urban Mobility
Think beyond the centre – it’s relatively easy to remove cars from the main square, but what are you doing more generally?
Don’t forget pedestrians! A good application can be undermined by a lack of consideration of how people move around the city without a vehicle.
Remember freight! Both freight accessing / bypassing the city and the distribution of freight within the city
![Page 15: Sustainable Urban Mobility indicator: Tips and advice · Sustainable Urban Mobility indicator: Tips and advice Ian Skinner, TEPR European Green Capital Award - Applicant Workshop](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070802/5f02f1a67e708231d406c863/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Main messages – General Focus – do not provide too much detail, e.g. lists of bus
routes, or the details of a specific measure Provide context wherever possible – not just what you did,
but note its wider effect, e.g. percentage increase of fleet
Read the application form and the guidance document Address all of the requested areas for each indicator – gaps
will lead to a lower ranking Use all the words that you are allowed to – but don’t exceed
the limit!
Experts can only evaluate what is in the application – be as clear and as explicit as you can, whilst recognising that the evaluator is an expert
