Mobility across

Closed

New transport solutions such as carpooling, car-sharing, rental bikes and new public transport services are needed to ensure that people outside the larger cities have access to sustainable and efficient journeys. The 17 partners in Mobility will promote green mobility in Greater Copenhagen. There is a need for green mobility that ensures that the labour market stays together geographically, supports rural life and reduces CO2 emissions from transport. This is the challenge for the future of transport in Greater Copenhagen and the reason why 17 partners have joined forces in an interregional project. Mobility in tværs will promote the green mobility of citizens through new mobility solutions such as car sharing (delebils), car-sharing and high-speed bicycles. The project will work to strengthen the interaction between different modes of transport, across municipal and national borders and between urban and rural areas. For example, the project will start by trying to introduce new mobility solutions in new geographical areas outside the major cities, by involving residents. The results shall be collected and conceptualised so that they can be used by other actors. In the long term, 10-15 years, the project hopes that one effect is that more people travel together with others, so-called shared mobility, that more people cycle and that more people combine their journeys in different forms of transport. The project hopes to contribute to reducing CO2 emissions and to promoting coherent mobility, not only in the cities of Greater Copenhagen but also in rural areas.
