Cities invited to join next round of CIVITAS SUMPs-Up learning programmes

European Project on sustainable mobilty

SUMPs-Up is inviting applications to join the next round of its SUMP Learning Programme (SLP).

A SUMP is a strategic plan that aims to create an urban transport system for all citizens that improves safety and security, reduces air and noise pollution, greenhouse gases and energy consumption, and boosts the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the transport of people and goods.

The application deadline is 18:00 CET on 23 April.

Torino Wireless is partner in the SUMPs-Up project.

Up to 40 planning authorities have the opportunity to take part in SLP 3 and 4, which start in September and December 2018 respectively.

Both SLP 3 and 4 focus on the SUMP elaboration process. The six-month programmes combine knowledge transfer and testing and assessment with learning on concepts, approaches, tools, and methodologies for SUMP development.

SUMPs-Up is seeking mobility and transport professionals active in local or regional transport planning authorities with sustainable mobility planning experience. Those currently elaborating their first SUMP are also encouraged to apply.

 

The application deadline is 18:00 CET on 23 April.
