This introductory course to the TRANSFORuM project gives an overview of the four roadmaps, the stakeholder engagament methodology that was applied and the recommendations TRANSFORuM has formulated for each of the different goals. Common questions for all four White Paper goals were: Who needs to be involved? What means are available/ missing and what are key trends? What are the main challenges and barriers to implementation? What effective solutions do we already know?
Proposed measures, actions and milestones towards the White Paper goal
on urban mobility: "Halve the use of ‘conventionally fuelled’ cars in
urban transport by 2030; phase them out in cities by 2050. Achieve
essentially CO2-free city logistics in major urban centres by 2030."
Proposed measures, actions and milestones towards the White Paper goal on multimodal transport information, management and payment system (MIMP): "By 2020, establish the framework for a European multimodal transport information, management and payment system."
Proposed measures, actions and milestones towards the White Paper goal
on Long-distance Freight: "Thirty per cent of road freight over 300 km
should shift to other modes such as rail or waterborne transport by
2030, and more than 50 % by 2050, facilitated by efficient and green
freight corridors. To meet this goal will also require appropriate
infrastructure to be developed."
Proposed measures, actions and milestones towards the White Paper goal
on high-speed rail: "By 2050, complete a European high-speed rail network. Triple the length
of the existing high-speed network by 2030 and maintain a dense railway
network in all Member States. By 2050, the majority of medium-distance
passenger transport should go by rail."
