This week PLANUM was represented as consortium leader with the FFG project ViMoPlan at the KNS networking workshop on technologies and innovations for the climate-neutral city, DUT projects and mobility projects of the BMIMI and the Climate and Energy Fund.

Benedict Winkler (Project Manager ViMoPlan) presented the research project on “Integrated modeling and evaluation of mobility measures for strategic planning processes for Villach” and also came into contact with many other researchers on neighbourhood development projects.

This made the workshop particularly exciting:

  • The interesting mix of projects presented

  • Different approaches to topics from different disciplines

  • Interdisciplinary discussions and valuable knowledge transfer

  • Exchange in Discovery Walks of the project posters with other neighborhood development projects

 

We are delighted to have been part of this network and will continue to follow the developments of the other projects with great interest.

 

Our project consortium consists of the City of Villach, JOANNEUM RESEARCH, the BERNARD Group, VKFG Villacher Klimafit GmbH and PLANUM

The project and the workshop are funded by the Climate+Energy Fund, the Federal Ministry for Innovation, Mobility and Infrastructure (BMIMI) and the “Climate Neutral City” initiative

The FFG project SMAC “Sustainable Mobilityfor Airport Connectivity” addresses the current challenges in the pre- and post-carriage of airport transportation. This is currently dominated by motorized private transport, which results in congestion and considerable environmental pollution due to emissions.

Our research team specifically analyzes the pre- and post-carriage of long-haul flights with the aim of developing environmentally friendly and demand-oriented transport solutions. The possibility of shifting from motorized private transport to public transport or other innovative transport solutions is also being investigated.
In addition, we conduct a comprehensive survey to ascertain the travel experiences, needs and transport behavior of airport passengers. This valuable data serves as the basis for the development of new concepts and services designed to make the pre- and post-carriage by public transport more attractive. With the help of a simulation and evaluation of the proposed measures, a quick assessment tool is being developed to support and optimize decision-making in the planning phase.

Thanks to the sound data basis from the predecessor project “Airbility”, the launch of “SMAC” in October went smoothly.

We are looking forward to the exciting cooperation with
Austrian Institut of Technology GmbH (AIT),
FH Joanneum,
BRIMATECH Services Gmbh
and are taking over the consortium leadership in this project.

Our research project InKoMob (“Inter-municipal cooperationto promote sustainable mobility patterns“) was launched in September.


The potential for promoting sustainable mobility patterns through inter-municipal cooperation to ensure regional mobility provision is being investigated. Additions to the service and accompanying measures should enable disadvantaged user groups to participate better in mobility.

The project places a strong focus on involving regional stakeholders and the population in order to develop optimized packages of services and measures for them. To this end, we are holding several stakeholder workshops and talking to those involved.

The main task of INKOMOB is to develop a guideline and criteria catalog for municipalities. The collected knowledge on inter-municipal mobility provision is bundled and serves as a basis for transferring the findings to other regions.

The research project team is made up of:

  • Austrian Institute of Technology GmbH (AIT) as consortium leader

  • PLANUM Fallast & Partner GmbH

  • Verkehrsverbund Kärnten GmbH

  • Klagenfurt Mobil GmbH

  • International Project Management Agency Klagenfurt on Lake Wörthersee (IPAK) GmbH

We look forward to a productive collaboration and expect exciting results to promote even more sustainable mobility patterns in the future.
