THE URBAN TRANSPORT BENCHMARKING INITIATIVE

The European Commission's Urban Transport Benchmarking Initiative was a three year project that concluded in August 2006. This unique project benchmarked different aspects of 45 participating European Cities’ transport systems, with themed working groups each researching individual urban transport topics in great depth.

By exploring and comparing best practice examples of urban transport delivery in cities across Europe, the initiative has enabled a greater understanding of how to make urban transport strategies work more effectively. The final reports from year three of the Urban Transport Benchmarking Initiative are available on the project website and can be found by clicking on the link below:
