The Toolbox for Mobility Management provides easily understandable information and practical advice to those who want to introduce Mobility Management into various institutions including kindergartens, schools, companies and urban developments.
The EU co-funded cities.multimodal project brought together cities, NGOs, universities, and other expert partners to facilitate the use of sustainable mobility solutions for residents in the Baltic Sea Region.
The project published three documents, including a "Planner's Guide to Sustainable Urban Mobility Management" and a "Toolbox for Mobility Management." These documents share knowledge on how to leverage mobility to promote sustainable and multimodal travel behaviors.
The Toolbox addresses stakeholders at various levels of education and resources to motivate organizations to set up local projects.
