3. Project ID
Name: GO SUMP - Improving Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans & Measures in the Med
Programme: Interreg Med
Priority Axis 2: Fostering low-carbon strategies and energy efficiency in specific Med territories: cities, islands and remote areas
Specific objective 2.3: Increasing the capacity to use existing low- carbon transport systems and multimodal connections among them
Type of project: Horizontal

5. GO SUMP objective
GO SUMP aims to enforce and mainstream at transnational level the results achieved in the Med area in promoting sustainable mobility in urban planning by supporting modular community projects to build on, improve the visibility of, and mainstream their results through joint strategies based on synergies and networking.
By promoting best practices, this horizontal project will improve the Med cities’ Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans and will enable them to implement low-carbon transport and mobility measures.
GO SUMP will connect the Med Programme with these projects and with their stakeholders through thematic groups, such as CIVITAS, the urban mobility observatory Eltis, the SUMP Platform, or the Covenant of Mayors.

6. GO SUMP activities COMMUNITY BUILDING

9. GO SUMP Urban Transport Community
LOCATIONS (Low Carbon Transport in Cruise Destination Cities) aims at supporting local public administrations in drafting Low-Carbon Transport and mobility Plans (LCTPs) with measures dedicated to cruise-related passengers and freight flows, contributing to decongest the city traffic and to lower the production of greenhouse gases.
Lead: Area Science Park Trieste (Italy)
MOBILITAS (Mobility for nearly-zero CO2 in Mediterranean tourism destinations) involves 7 MED countries through 10 regions, affected by intense touristic flows with great pressure on transport infrastructure and mobility with negative effects in terms of air pollution, CO2 emission, noise, health, un-safety roads, and loss of cities’ attractiveness.
Lead: Development Centre Koper (Slovenia)

10. GO SUMP Urban Transport Community
MOTIVATE (Promoting citizens’ active involvement in the development of Sustainable Travel Plans in Med Cities with Seasonal Demand) promotes a new model of SUMP development, based on the exploitation of social media and crowd-sourcing apps in areas with high seasonal demand due to tourism;. The project intends to help decision makers to gain a strong understanding of the main mobility problems.
Lead: Câmara Municipal de Almada (Portugal)
SUMPORT (Sustainable Urban Mobility in MED PORT cities) aims at strengthening the MED port cities’ knowledge and planning capacities through trainings for MED port city officials in drafting SUMPs, drafting or updating SUMPs in designated MED port cities and small-scale investments for sustainable mobility.
Lead: Central European Initiative (Italy)

11. GO SUMP Urban Transport Community
CAMPsUMP (CAMPus sustainable University mobility plans in MED areas) aims to improve sustainable urban mobility planning instruments as SUMP through innovative mobility strategies for students’ flows inside the MED Area University Campus and their integration with the urban areas.
Lead: Magna Graecia Foundation Catanzaro University (Italy)
REMEDIO (REgenerating mixed-use MED urban communities congested by traffic through Innovative low carbon mobility sOlutions) aims at strengthening the capacity of cities to use low carbon transport systems and include them in their mobility plans, through an assessment tool and participatory governance schemes.
Lead: ARPA Veneto (Italy)
