Amendments (4)
Amendment 7 #
Draft opinion
Paragraph 1 a (new)
Paragraph 1 a (new)
1 a. Considers that an efficient transport system might benefit from the sharing of costs within a public-private partnership. This would, first and foremost, lead to the creation of market opportunities for the development of multi-tasking applications and equipment. An innovative and efficient system of public procurement would also result in considerable savings in administrative costs and the sharing of knowledge and know-how among the authorities;

Paragraph 8 a (new)
Paragraph 8 a (new)
8 a. Calls on the authorities to increase the spread of intelligent technologies as a means of solving the problems associated with urban mobility. IT tools could, for example, alleviate pressure in parking and waiting areas by providing real-time information on the availability of spaces and reservation facilities. The fitting of on-board satellite sensors in vehicles, to alert drivers to dangerous junctions or blind spots, could also be of benefit in terms of road safety, and systems such as ‘smart ticketing’ could provide further solutions to reducing urban traffic congestion;

9 a. Calls for central coordination at European Union level to ensure the improved rationalisation and clarity of standards concerning traffic restrictions in low-emission zones and to tackle the challenges of urban mobility by adopting a holistic approach involving all the sectors concerned: energy, environment, transport authorities. Links between the various means of public transport (trains and trams) allow for proper integration of regional, periurban and urban transport systems;
