The project "SuMo-Rhine - Sustainable mobility in the Upper Rhine region" is coordinated by the French-German Institute for Environmental Research (DFIU) of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). Eight other financed partners from Germany and France are represented in the project consortium. The European Union is supporting the project with a total of 1.36 million euros from the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF). The aim of the project is tocomprehensively analyse and evaluate the crossborder transport systems existing on the Upper Rhine, using the conurbations of Strasbourg and Lörrach as examples. In the course of this, the project partners want to set up a novel "decision support system". Via a web application, the system makes measurable indicators for sustainable mobility accessible. Thus, cities, municipalities, mobility offices and mobility service providers should be able to identify potentials for improving the transport offer with low environmental impact and for increasing the market share of alternative modes of transport much more precisely than before.
