TRANSPRICE- Transmodal Integrated Urban Transport Pricing for optimum Modal Split
Abstract
The TransPrice project aims to address the issue of integrated trans modal urban transport pricing, towards achieving optimum modal split in urban areas, at pan-European level. TransPrice (Trans Modal Integrated Urban Transport Pricing for Optimum Modal Split) commenced in January 1996 with a 3-year work programme. The TransPrice Consortium comprises 19 partners from 9 EU member states and it involves 8 urban test sites in 7 EU member states. It addresses Task 5.4/24 in the Urban Transport sub-programme of the EU 4th RTD Framework Transport Programme (Pricing and Financing Section). The project has links to other parts of the Urban Transport Work Programme, namely transport demand management and strategies for changing modal split. Moreover, TransPrice has direct links with the Strategic Research sub-programme on valuation of externalities of transport and on pricing of transport systems (Tasks 1.2/14 and 1.2/15), as well as relevant projects within other EU projects [Telematics Applications (DGXIII), JOULE-THERMIE, SAVE]. TransPrice involves analysis and evaluation for eight urban sites throughout Europe, covering a wide range of cities. Dissemination of the project findings to other EU member states as well as to two Central and Eastern European sites is also included.
