Project overview
Green mobility solutions for Pioneering Actions Towards a Healthy and sustainable commuting
Commuting from nearby places into cities is a major source of urban greenhouse gas emissions and the lack of sustainable mobility options heavily contributes to the problem. The GreenPATH project co-designs smart and green mobility options for students and employees together with mobility managers. More concretely, the partners develop a joint strategy for the integrated governance of commuter flows and draft action plans for functional urban areas. Innovative and collaborative solutions suggested in these plans will be tested and evaluated in three pilot areas.

About the project
GreenPATH is a project aimed at providing sustainable commuting solutions to students and employees in functional urban areas (FUAs) in Central Europe. The project is co-designed with mobility managers and targeted towards public and private stakeholders. It aims to develop smart and green mobility solutions through pilots, strategies, and action plans developed by 11 public administrations, mobility agencies and operators, universities, and research bodies, and 12 associated partners.
The project focuses on addressing the challenges related to mobility management and commuting from home to work. The partners will develop a common strategy for the integrated governance of commuter flows in FUAs. They will deliver innovative solutions that can be scaled up in FUAs, leveraging new technologies and data-sharing platforms to optimize transport efficiency, improve the overall commuting experience, and provide commuters with real-time information, personalized travel options, and seamless integration of different modes of transport.
GreenPATH will deliver practical solutions and action plans for a wide range of potential users, including local and regional public authorities, sectoral agencies, infrastructure, and (public) service providers, higher education and research organizations, schools, industrial and service companies, and related mobility management teams. The project outputs include three collaborative solutions for sustainable mobility, tested in three pilots deployed throughout FUAs, the GreenPATH Strategy, and seven action plans for each FUA. These outputs are expected to be endorsed by decision-makers, ensuring the take-up and further implementation of the solutions.

Roadmap
Context
The GreenPATH project takes place in functional urban areas (FUAs) across Central Europe and operates within the sustainable transportation sector.
Specific Problem
Driving into cities from nearby areas generates a significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions due to the lack of sustainable mobility options. GreenPATH preliminary activity aims to analyze home-to work movements, identify needs, gaps and opportunities to gather all the necessary data to develop sustainable and innovative solutions.
Our Idea
How can we use collaboration and innovative technology to develop sustainable commuting solutions and optimize transport efficiency in functional urban areas of Central Europe?
Our Solutions
Innovative, practical mobility management tools and action plans that can be applicable in the entire Programme Area.
Our strategy for the future
We will develop a common strategy to help transfer the results and give specific recommendations for institutions, companies and stakeholders who want to adopt sustainable home-to-work mobility measures.
