Editor's Notes
For a nice trip experience, tourists want easy solutions to discover a destination. This means no problems in the mobility issues (bad taxi driver, traffic jam) but also easy access to information to pass from one type of transport to another… not to be blocked somewhere in the destination without possibilities to go further. We are speaking about tourists without their own car.
Do you know any solutions in destination to pass easily from one type of transport to another with clear information for tourists? This means maybe an app, or signs, etc.
This could be in rural or urban destination?
Intermodal passenger transport, also called mixed-mode commuting, involves using two or more modes of transportation in a journey. The goal of mixed-mode commuting is often to combine the strengths (and offset the weaknesses) of various transportation options. A major goal of modern intermodal passenger transport is to reduce dependence on the automobile as the major mode of ground transportation and increase use of public transport. To assist and encourage such trips, Intermodal Journey planningsoftware - in the form of online web applications or mobile device apps - is often available for travellers to plan and schedule their journey.
Mixed-mode commuting often centres on one type of rapid transit, usually rail, to which low-speed options (i.e. bus, tram, or bicycle) are appended at the beginning or end of the journey.[1] Trains offer quick transit into an urban area, where passengers can disembark and access a similar array of options to complete the trip. Most modes of transportation have always been intermodal; for example, to get to the airport people have always needed drive or be driven (e.g. take a taxi) or to take public transport (if available), and to get to an inter-regional railway station people have needed take local transport such as a bus, tram, or urban rail.

Cities are attracting people, inhabitants & tourists… more & more.
These places are now crowdy. This could mean bad experiences for both public. Do you have experiences how to adapt transport for those publics which have different goals and different targets in the destination?
Is it possible to reduce CO2 emissions in these urban destination? Any solutions?

National park are now real tourist brands. It is attracting lots of tourists. How can we manage this tourists flow without disturbing the ecosystems? What kind of sustainable solutions do we have to adapt mobility & reduce the impacts? What is the best management tools? Just a few entries to the park?
And what about ski resorts? How can we convince tourists not to use their car during holidays?

Trekking routes are the most famous ones like Compostelle, Anapurna’s, etc. More and more, mobility becomes a real mean to discover a destination. Not only in private car or in camper van but also by bike, by canoe, by different way of transport… Like in Europe you have now several EV (Euro Vélo Route) which means European Routes by bike. Loire à vélo in France is now very famous & really easy access for all which good signs, good road quality, a usefull app, etc.
How can we develop this kind of routes with sustainable mobility? Is it possible to create a route with multiple possibilities of transport with easy possibilities to pass from one to another? Do you have any examples?
