Project Homepage: http://www.hupmobile-project.eu/

Mobility in this context includes both people and goods (i.e. freight, cargo logistics and delivery). Concrete examples of innovations addressed are greener urban logistics and combinations of goods- and passenger traffic, intelligent traffic systems-based services, tools for stakeholder participation, and new tools for transportation mobility management and Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS).

Project activities

WORK PACKAGE 1:
Project Management and Administration (leading: Aalto University)
 

WORK PACKAGE 2:
Improving production logistics and urban logistics (leading: Royal Institute and Technology)

The overall aim of the WP is to develop and propose a planning approach and tools focusing on the flow of goods in the urban areas.It will analyse the inbound  and outbound transport flows and their interaction  and impact on other transportation flows. 

WORK PACKAGE 3:
Mobility Management and the needs of residents (leading: Aalto University) 

The aim of this WP is to understand the overall situation in passenger traffic in and around ports by looking into everyday mobility of the residents living close to ports, traffic flows from passenger ports, and commuting to companies in the port area. 

WORK PACKAGE 4:
Realizing the potential of ITS solutions (leading: ITL DIGITAL LAB)

The focus of this WP is on matching internationally the public sector challenges with private sector competencies in the field of intelligent transport systems (ITS) and supporting the development of international competence networks of smart mobility in the Baltic Sea Region. 

WORK PACKAGE 5:
Multimodality in Urban Transport and Travel-to-Work areas (leading: Aalto University)

The aim of the WP is to support multimodal transportation, increase the utilization of the existing infrastructure and thereby reduce private car dependency especially in areas connected to ports - as different periodical transportation needs together with private car-based mobility in these areas creates congestion and health hazards.

WORK PACKAGE 6:
Holistic Urban and Peri-Urban Mobility (leading: Royal Institute of Technology)

The focus of this WP is on a urban and peri-urban mobility solutions including corresponding business and operational models as well as the HUPMOBILE dissemination and uptake activities.
