The Fifth Framework Programme did at least incorporate very interesting key activities such as intermodality and sustainable mobility, and also mariti
me technologies and surface transport, under the heading of sustainable growth. Your draftsman therefore proposes bringing the research areas relating to transport together in a new priority thematic area entitled ‘Sustainable mobility and surface transport’. The purpose of the activities undertaken in this area would be to support and strengthen European mobility and surface-transport systems which are better integrated from four points of view – namely, through the integration of sustaina
...[+++]ble development, the integration of the various modes (i.e. intermodality), the integration at European level of the individual Member States’ transport systems (interoperability) and the integration of safety and security, in order to contribute to and bring about safer, more economic, more efficient, more socially relevant, more comfortable and more environmentally sound mobility and surface transport.
L'objectif des actions menées dans ce domaine est de soutenir et renforcer des systèmes européens de mobilité et des transports de surface plus intégrés dans quatre directions : l'intégration du développement soutenable, l'intégration des différents modes, c'est-à-dire l'intermodalité, l'intégration européenne des différents systèmes nationaux (interopérabilité) et l'intégration de la sécurité (tant la sûreté que la sécurité) afin d'obtenir et contribuer à une mobilité et des transports de surface plus sûrs, économiques, efficaces, sociaux, confortables et respectueux de l'environnement
