This document summarizes a project to develop guidelines for a sustainable mobility plan for Tbilisi, Georgia. The project is a collaboration between Italian and Georgian partners, supported by the Italian Ministry of Economics and Finance. The main objective is to prepare preliminary guidelines and provide technical support to Tbilisi's transport departments. The guidelines will integrate strategies for management, infrastructure, and pilot projects involving public transport improvements and intelligent transport systems technologies.
Active modes and urban mobility: outcomes from the ALLEGRO projectSerge Hoogendoorn
In this presentation, we present some examples of the main outcomes of the ALLEGRO project so far. The talks starts with showing how active mode traffic can play a major role given that cities are getting denser.

Innovative Partnerships: Silo Hopping to Engage Communities
How can we collaborate to educate, inform and involve the public? How can we work together -- across departmental and agency lines -- to engage citizens more meaningfully and efficiently? Large capital projects, especially transit projects, involve many departments, agencies and objectives. Collaborating in an intentional way helps build and strengthen communities. Explore examples of successful teamwork designed to keep the public informed, including social media tools, branding techniques, and more.

The project is created for your device, three-level ring road around the capital of Georgia Tbilisi. The road joins the Central highway from West to East, passing through Turkey and Georgia to Azerbaijan, funded by the world Bank. The length of the three ring roads of approximately 200 km when the road construction will be used modern technology, including the latest achievements in the field of unmanned vehicles. In reinforced concrete structures of bridges and roads will be used string prestressing technology, so the estimated duration of maintenance-free operation will be increased.

Multimodal in rail development: popularity and reaping benefitsAtkins
Dr Ghassan Ziadat, Atkins’ director of planning and infrastructure, looks in depth at transport planning, multimodal transportation and transit oriented developments. Ghassan believes that clear government direction, through policy and legislation, remains essential to ensure the consistent and effective adoption of multimodal transportation and transit orientated developments (TODs) in the Middle East’s major cities.
This presentation was first delivered in March 2014 at Infrastructure Outlook 2014, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Intelligent transportation systems (ITS) are advanced applications which, without embodying intelligence as such, aim to provide innovative services relating to different modes of transport and traffic management and enable various users to be better informed and make safer, more coordinated, and 'smarter' use of transport networks
DEVELOPMENT OF SUSTAINABLE URBAN TRANSPORT STRATEGIES FOR SALEM CITYIAEME Publication
Urban planning as majorly practiced in India is mainly concerned with the development of land in cities. Urban traffic congestion being a major problem in large cities which has a negative impact on mobility, environment, local economy and quality of life. The aim of this thesis is to develop an efficient transport with good and better facility for the Salem city. The roads and public transportation areas should be developed and maintained clean. Salem was a municipal town till 2007 and is developed to city in 2008 with heavy area expansion to more than ten times. A detail including all the elements like sustainable urban transport strategies for Salem city is not carried out in the past. To achieve this, development of Salem should meet all the three strategies i.e. social, economic and environmental sustainability goals. Hence sustainable development for Salem city is necessary.

7. What is
Sustainable Urban Mobility
The ability to meet the needs to move people and goods,
without sacrificing the essential human and ecological values,
today and in the future.
The focus is on moving people and not vehicles !
Organising mobility such that the consumption of energy ,
environment and land does not endanger the opportunities of
future generations to reach at least the same welfare level as
those living now.
Access to goods and services for all inhabitants of the urban
area
Safety access to all
8. Unmanaged mobility ..
Unmanaged mobility is
• The main threat to the smooth development of cities
• The most important source of pollution in cities
• The cause of social costs to all (e.g. health)
• A source of economic loss due to congestions
Two challenges:
• Strong strategies for a better mobility in existing cities
• Design new cities and transport systems integrated
One concept:
• Mobility is for people and goods (i.e. not only for cars)
• Vehicle emissions contribute to 60% of pollution in
large cities
9. How to implement
Sustainable Urban Mobility
Set up an operational organization (Mobility
Agency)
Main policies actions
-Prepare master plans to harmonize
urbanization and transport
Traffic Modelling and engineering
Incorporate principles of
● air quality improvement
● low energy consumption
● attractiveness of public transport
● minimization of private car use
● transport for all
- Adopt ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems)
to improve transport management efficiency
and cost effectiveness
10. The role of the Mobility Agencies
Integrated view of mobility:
Main goal
- to grant harmonization of interests and implementation
issues;
- to coordinate actions and answer needs of traffic Police
corps, municipal transport department and public transport
companies;
- to guarantee monitoring effects and feedback actions inside
different items of Sustainable Mobility Plan.
Planning
•Analysis and processing of traffic data, simulation models
•Studies and planning of the comprehensive mobility network
•Define mobility strategies and infrastructures
•Define ITS deployment plan
Operations
•Plan the local public transport service
•Manage contracts with Public Transport Operators
•Operate the Traffic Management System
•Provide integration of existing subsystems
•Provide information to travelers

20. Conclusion
The implementation of a Sustainable Mobility Plan will
integrate the vision of the on going Master Plan project with
the action on mobility management and the implementation of
ITS tools;
The creation of a Mobility Agency, according to international
practices, in charge of implementation of a Sustainable Mobility
Plan;
The opportunity to realise Pilot project, inside the Sustainable
Mobility Plan and going forward the same objective of Master
Plan, in order to get two main goals:
• arising level of performances for public transport service
network in the next future with specific planning activities and
ITS tools implementation;
• providing Master Plan of a useful tool to tune and recalibrate,
if necessary, transport macro modelling features.
