The SUMP Self-Assessment About the Academy

About the Academy

Our courses help you connect your experience and local context with sustainable mobility learning content.

SUMP Self-Assessment

The SUMP self-assessment helps you to evaluate and improve mobility planning in your region.

Sustainability projects

Our courses are offered in the context of international research and innovation projects on sustainable mobility.

Rupprecht Consult Forschung & Beratung GmbH

_{We are a fully
independent private research and consultancy company. Since 1996 we develop innovative solutions for sustainable development
in cooperation with our partners from all over Europe and beyond.}

Public Transport

Public transport, as the backbone for sustainable transport, is a broad and complex field, including issues ranging from modes of ticket purchase and passenger information to safety and security and provision of service for vulnerable citizens to the introduction of alternative fuels and electrification to the development of a metropolitan public transport authority (allowing for the purchase of a single tickets for use on multiple services) to the use of market research to improve public transport services.

Data and mobility

Data is playing a larger and larger role in urban mobility. Intelligent transport systems (ITS) allow a city to digitally link and share data from one sub-system with another to improve the efficiency of the overall system. Data – and data sharing – also play an important role in the development of shared mobility and Mobility as a Service. Data-based planning is an increasingly important competence for cities to be able to dynamically react to shifting mobility patterns and make informed decisions about future mobility needs. Consistent data collection also allows a city to track its progress towards the achievement of its sustainable mobility (and other) goals.

Active Mobility

Active mobility covers walking and cycling as well as other human-powered modes (scooters, skateboards, etc.) as modes of urban – or in some cases even inter-urban – transportation. These must be considered on the same level as motorised modes of transport for their ability to move people and goods.

Sustainable Urban Mobility Planning

Since the introduction of the SUMP concept by the European Commission in 2009, and the publication of the SUMP guidelines first edition in 2013, hundreds of cities across Europe engaged to make urban mobility cleaner and more sustainable. Comprehensive sustainable urban mobility planning has proven to be an effective way to tackle the climate, energy and environmental challenges that cities face in relation to transport. With a revised edition of the Guidelines published in 2019, every town and city, irrespective of its size, can develop a high-quality Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan to help tackle the principal urban mobility challenges, and to improve quality of life for its citizens.

Electric Mobility

Electric mobility has been a topic of discussion for many years, but its wide-scale implementation still presents a range of challenges. Regulatory, legal and policy aspects need to be addressed in order to make the use of electric vehicles more convenient, affordable and user-friendly as compared to conventionally-fuelled ones. In what cases is electrification best deployed? What problems can it help to solve (and which does it not)? How can existing infrastructure be exploited more efficiently to expand the network of charging stations and how can we ensure the clean provision of energy that will be needed to charge large electric fleet?

Freight and Urban Logistics

Fast and reliable delivery of goods must be assured to keep our urban centres vital. At the same time, delivery vehicles are a significant cause of urban air pollution and congestion; many are also over-dimensioned for the actual delivery need. Due to the increase in online shopping, delivery vehicles can now also often be seen in residential streets – bringing transport-related impacts as well as impacts on quality of life more generally.

Networks

Transport networks exist on different geographical scales. On a large scale the Trans-European Network-Transport (TEN-T) and the national network and on a small scale the regional and local transport network need to be planned and managed. Different topics come into play such as interaction of planning institutions and stakeholders as well as data requirements to understand journey needs.

Courses in Spanish | Cursos en Español

Desde que comenzamos a colaborar con el programa Euroclima+ para apoyar ciudades en América Latina en el proceso de desarrollo de implementación de sus Planes de Movilidad Urbana Sostenible (PMUS), hemos elaborado e implementado diversas oportunidades de aprendizaje, una de ellas son los cursos en español que se presentan en esta sección. Estos cursos brindan conocimientos clave, ejemplos, buenas prácticas, herramientas, entre otros para reforzar el conocimiento sobre SUMPs en autoridades locales en la región latinoamericana.

Since we started collaborating with the Euroclima+ programme to support cities in Latin America in the process of developing and implementing their Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs), we have developed and implemented several learning opportunities, one of them being the courses in Spanish presented in this section. These courses provide key knowledge, examples, good practices, tools, among others to strengthen the knowledge on SUMPs in local authorities in the Latin American region.

Cooperation

Cooperation cuts across almost all areas of sustainable urban mobility planning and implementation. It can entail working across departments, across jurisdictions, across sectors or across political lines. Many new mobility services require collaboration between the public and the private sectors. Cooperation also plays a significant role in co-creation processes, where participants work together to develop a plan that meets their own needs without infringing on those of others.
