Strategic Research Agenda for Urban Mobility SRA, Final Version

EURFORUM’s Strategic Research Agenda addresses research issues in the particular field of urban transport considering all transport modes and focusing on intermodality for both passenger and freight transport. Technology-oriented as well as policy-oriented research is considered. The focus is directed on urban issues, including the transport between an agglomeration and its surroundings. EURFORUM’s SRA relies on the conviction that holistic and interdisciplinary research is the most adequate approach to solve the problems identified in the area of urban transport. Additionally, special attention is paid to urban mobility changes in newly associated States (EU-12). The overall objectives of EURFORUM are to better structure and to better coordinate European research on urban mobility for passengers and goods, by involving all relevant urban mobility stakeholders in the discussion.
