Brief description of the challenges: 

The Greek cities of Heraklion and Larissa are seeking solutions to the urban mobility challenges they face. The best solutions to three challenges per city will be awarded implementation of the pilots. Find below a brief description of each challenge: 

Heraklion (Greece)  

• Challenge: Creating micromobility hubs through secure bicycle parkings 

The city of Heraklion strives to implement safe and secured bicycle parking with the possibility of charging e-bikes, located in a strategic point where the users, after finishing their trips, can park their bike safely to walk or use the public transport. The ideal flexible modular solution could be spread around the city and accommodate (each one) a small number (10-30) of bikes and e-bikes for both spontaneous parking and charging during the day by the registered users of the scheme. 

• Challenge: Management and control of parking spaces for persons with reduced mobility (PRM) and logistics 

The desired solution should enable PRM residents and visitors, and truck drivers, to book a parking spot. It should also facilitate the movement of people with disabilities and encourage their integration and equal participation in the life of the city by informing them in real time about the next free parking spot. It should also facilitate the everyday work of the delivery companies and the shop owners, by avoiding illegal parking of trucks in random and not appropriate places for parking.  

• Challenge: Control of motorised vehicle access in the pedestrianised area of the city centre 

The city is looking for a technology solution through which it can control the city’s entry points and/or exit points of the central pedestrianised area. The solution implementing the Urban Vehicle Access Regulations (UVARs) should allow the city to grant the permissions to an authorized driver to enter the area during certain time slots. The control of the entry and exit points should not rely on the involvement of the police in the enforcement of the regulation. 

• Challenge: Electric-powered micro-vehicle for PRM passengers’ mobility in the pedestrianised city centre 

Heraklion is interested in piloting a new mobility option friendly both to people and the environment, operating in slow speed (up to 25 kilometres per hour) and allowing ride-hailing anywhere on the street. Smart or conventional telephone ordering should also be an option. This vehicle should be operated by a professional driver (city employee or employee of a private organisation, e.g. the Urban Public Transport Operator) and have capacity of 5 passengers without wheelchairs, or less passengers with wheelchairs. 

Larissa (Greece)  

• Challenge: Creating micromobility hubs through secure bicycle parkings 

The city of Heraklion strives to implement safe and secured bicycle parking with the possibility of charging e-bikes, located in a strategic point where the users, after finishing their trips, can park their bike safely to walk or use the public transport. Safe bike parking facilities will encourage more cyclists to use e-bikes, which is expected to increase the number of cyclists for long peri-urban distance trips and trips to uphill destinations. 

• Challenge:  Collection of environmental and traffic data 

The city of Larissa is looking into the use of smart devices to be installed close to schools and hospitals and also less sensitive locations to measure and compare the level of environmental pollution (air and noise) and traffic flows. The collection of relevant environmental and traffic data by smart devices will enable the city to take informed decisions and to re-shape urban mobility based on minimizing the harmful effects. 

• Challenge:  Management and control of parking spaces for PRM  

Unauthorized parking causes major accessibility issues for PRM. The desired solution should enable holders of blue cards (PRM residents in Larissa) and visitors with reduced mobility to book a parking spot. It should furthermore facilitate the movement of people with disabilities and encourages their integration and equal participation in the life of the city by informing them in real time about the next free parking spot.

Challenges in Braga (Portugal): brief description 

The Portuguese city of Braga and EIT Urban Mobility are looking for solutions to the following challenges: 

• Challenge: Enhancing bike safety and monitoring cyclists´ flows 

The city is exploring ways to enhance bike safety and monitor bike flows on shared traffic lanes. By implementing additional safety measures, and better understanding cyclists’ behaviour and mobility patterns, Braga wants to create a more friendly environment for cyclists and reduce the risk of accidents. 

• Challenge: Understanding and promoting active mobility in the city centre 

Braga is seeking innovative technological solutions that can help to collect information and provide data-based insights to inform urban planning, enhancing a holistic comprehension of pedestrian and cyclist flows in the city centre. Furthermore, solutions that can improve and encourage walking and promote active mobility are welcome, as well as proposals incorporating both aspects. 

• Challenge: Improving monitoring and use of on-street parking spaces 

Finding a parking space in the city can often be a time-consuming and frustrating task for drivers, leading to increased congestion and pollution. To address these issues, the city of Braga aims to test solutions that can inform citizens how to find available on-street parking spaces while also helping the city to monitor, gain insights and manage limited-time paid parking zones.  

• Challenge: Encouraging alternative transportation for school commuting to decrease private car usage 

The preferred mean of transport for school commuting in Braga is a private car, which results in traffic congestion during peak hours, and increased pollution in the city centre. The city is seeking solutions to improve, optimize and enhance the use of sustainable modes of transportation to go to school, reduce reliance on private cars and alleviate traffic congestion in the city centre.

Call summary 

Info Session Recording

This call falls under the thematic area innovation’s targeted projects programme that addresses gaps in the innovation portfolio, business plan, and/ or strategic agenda, and covers issues not or inadequately covered by the main annual innovation call. The annual open calls in 2022 and 2023 failed to provide a) any viable waterborne mobility projects evaluated as excellent by external evaluators (call topic 1), b) additional support for transport operators of RIS countries to support the digitalisation of their mobility services (call topic 2). The topics are standalone and should be applied separately.   

Given the targeted project’s programme is a pilot mechanism, awardees will be closely monitored through the implementation process until the successful closure of their project. 

Topic 1 – Sustainable & efficient waterborne transportation 

EIT Urban Mobility plays a vital role in the uptake of innovations that enable efficient and sustainable transport in urban areas. Inland waterway and close-to-shore waterborne transportation is a competitive alternative to road and rail transport that has, to date, been underrepresented in our annual Business Plan and project portfolio. Waterborne mobility can offer an environment-friendly alternative in terms of energy consumption, noise and pollution emissions. It also reduces congestion in the city road network and promotes more urban liveable cities by freeing-up land space. Historically, European cities growth, cultural centres, and economic exchanges were built around inland and coastal waterways. 

Traditional waterborne freight and passenger mobility has various shortcomings, ranging from dependence on hydrocarbon combustion, pollutant discharge, waterway fouling, and lack of modern docking and loading infrastructure. These issues have been compounded by high-energy cost/consumption, inefficient technologies, and a lack of trained manpower impeding the re-adoption of new sustainable and efficient waterborne solutions to utilise Europe’s free water highways.  

EIT Urban Mobility is therefore looking for a project consortium of up to no more than three partners to develop and demonstrate in a real-life setting an innovative solution that promotes an efficient and sustainable use of urban inland and close-to-shore waterways.  

This call is focused on strategic objectives SO1 and SO3 of the EIT Urban Mobility Strategic Agenda (SA) 2021-2027. 

Topic 2 – Democratisation of large-scale ICT solutions for smaller public transport authorities in financially-constrained RIS cities 

EIT Urban Mobility plays a vital role in promoting a modal shift to public transportation and reducing the reliance on private cars. Digitalisation can help public transport operators to improve regularity, quality, and safety as well as adapt mobility services to the demands of personalisation and the adoption of micro-mobility and geofencing.  For instance, digital technologies can gather and analyse data on traffic patterns, and public transportation usage, to optimise traffic flow, reduce congestion and pollution, and improve the overall experience of public transport. Moreover, they can improve the access to information for citizens, making it easier for them to plan their trips and buy tickets, find the best routes and choose the most suitable transportation mode. 

Cities in the Regional Innovation Scheme (RIS) face difficulties more pronounced than other parts of Europe, including high urbanisation, outdated infrastructure, and poor connectivity between regions. An ageing transportation fleet, dominated by low-cost, high-polluting vehicles, with a strong car ownership mentality exacerbates the problem (EITUM Strategic Agenda 2021-2027). Often the tools that exist to support cities in digitalisation and visualisation of their own public transport needs and operations are currently dominated by technology multinationals that often do not offer solutions at price points that RIS cities can afford. As such often smaller RIS cities are excluded from tools and know-how that larger, richer cities have come to depend. Adaption of existing off-the-shelf solutions to specific context of RIS cities would cost even more.  

For Europe, overreliance on a limited number of corporate technology providers can lead to dependency on proprietary systems, and “lock-in” for cities. Additionally, these companies often rely on extractive business practices, leading to a loss of revenue, skills development, and economic growth in the regions in which they operate, transferring profits to low tax havens. 

EIT Urban Mobility aims to support smaller public transport authorities in financially constrained RIS cities to access digital solutions and systems by selecting a project in which a public transport authority works with (a) competent local technology business (s) offering innovative, flexible, and adaptable ICT solutions at a lower cost. The call aims to democratise access to complex mobility systems and as such may make recourse to open-source software as core building blocks. 

This call is focused on strategic objectives SO3 and SO4 of the EIT Urban Mobility Strategic Agenda (SA) 2021-2027.

Following an open call for members announced last year in the new EU urban mobility framework, EIT Urban Mobility is pleased to announce its membership in the European Commission’s Expert Group on Urban Mobility (EGUM).  

What is the Expert Group on Urban Mobility? 

The group brings together Member State representatives, local and regional authorities as well as key European organisations active in making sustainable urban mobility a reality – from research bodies and universities to industry, civil society, and non-governmental organisations.  

The revamping of the EGUM membership arose from the need to establish a platform for dialogue to further the goals of the EU Urban Mobility Framework (UMF) adopted in December 2021, as part of the Green and Efficient Mobility Package. The new UMF renews support for urban nodes under the TEN-T regulation, provides a reinforced approach to SUMP through better integration with urban logistics planning (SULP) and monitoring indicators, focuses on walking, cycling and micromobility as well as public transport, digitalisation, innovation and new mobility services.  

To achieve EU-wide goals in the field of sustainable urban mobility, the group will: 

• assist the European Commission’s Directorate for Mobility and Transport in the implementation of the new EU urban mobility framework 
• advise and provide technical expertise to the Commission on developing and implementing  legislation, policies, projects and programmes 
• improve cooperation and coordination between the Commission, Member States and stakeholders relating to implementation of EU legislation, programmes and policies including sustainable urban mobility planning, transport contingency preparedness and energy efficiency 
• foster exchanges of experience and good practices, including in cross-border regions 

• advise the Commission on how to develop synergies between EU, national and regional funding and financing opportunities in research, innovation, development and deployment of safe, healthy, energy efficient and sustainable urban mobility solutions  
• facilitate exchanges on relevant initiatives, projects and partnerships such as the EU mission on climate-neutral and smart cities 

How will it help the EIT Urban Mobility network? 

We will be able to leverage our community of more than 300 entities coming from education, business, research and public sectors to increase synergies and cooperation that create lasting impact.  

After three intense years of establishing EIT Urban Mobility, we are eager to join this initiative to support the European Commission’s work on developing and implementing future-proof and innovation-friendly legislation, policies, projects and programmes in the field of sustainable urban mobility.  

The new Expert Group on Urban Mobility will hold its first meeting on 25 October 2022, in Brussels.
