  8. Further dimensions of integration • Spatial / governance levels • local, regional, national, European • municipalities, towns and cities, regions, countries EU • Stakeholder‘s / citizen‘s involvement • not enough used resource for generating acceptance and success • need for strategy development and implementation

  9. Selected strategy: mobility management • Mobility management aims at influencing mobility behaviour by • information, organisation • providing new mobility services • raising public awareness • Stakeholders are to be supposed to care for the transport they generate. Mobility management is rather efficient if it is an integrated part of a bundle of measures. Mobility managemant has demonstrated its impacts but is used only in single European countries.

  10. Selected strategy: intermodality Combination of different transport modes on a single journey • Integral elements of an intermodality strategy • door-to-door information and ticketing • intermodal networks and interchanges • integration of long-distance transport and "last urban mile“ • integration within public transport • baggage handling • Intermodality is a precondition for changing travel behaviour from single car use to alternatives. There are big differences between the European countries.

  11. Selected strategy: processes Steering processes means optimising the integration of people and institutions • Important elements of successfully organised processes • analysis of the stakeholder environment: identification of possible promotors, opponents and of strategies to include them • organisation of the cooperation: internally/externally • participation approach to include the citizens in due time • planning and implementation of communication strategies and ways of solving conflicts • In sustainable urban transport measures fail all too often because of ignoring the need for planning and implementing processes.

  12. Conclusions • Integration of the different dimensions of policy does not mean that there is no need for “simple” policies: Both is necessary. • e.g. there is a need for integrating modes as well as for single mode policies • Sectoral integration can help to increase acceptance • There is a need for a better matching the policies at different spatial or governmental policies • Sustainable urban transport policy should pay more attention on processes • There are big differences in Europe in using mobility management and improving intermodality. EU transferability strategies can help.
