POLIS invite their city members to join the SUM project as part of the City Observers Board.

SUM (Seamless Shared Urban Mobility) aims to transform current mobility networks into innovative shared mobility systems integrated with public transport across Europe.

SUM Objectives:

The objective of SUM is to transform current mobility networks towards New and Shared Mobility Systems (NSM) integrated with public transport (PT) in more than 15 European Cities by 2026 reaching 30 by 2030. Intermodality, interconnectivity, sustainability, safety, and resilience are at the core of this innovation.
