CO-CREATING VISIONS AND ROADMAPS |
SMART URBAN MOBILITY |
Creating a vision and roadmap for mobility in Dutch cities, together with the national government and the cities of Amsterdam, Eindhoven, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht.
The Netherlands firmly believes in the potential benefits for significant change in road mobility with the introduction of cooperative ITS systems. Innovations in this field should allow us to improve traffic flows on our roads in terms of safety, efficiency and environmental impact, and can be an important boost to Europe's competitive strength, jobs opportunities and growth. For The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management LightHouse created a vision and roadmap for future mobility in Dutch cities, together with the cities of Amsterdam, Eindhoven, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht. In a co-creative process of the ministry with the five major Dutch cities, a new policy is created that is linked to a relevant and shared vision of the future on mobility in Dutch cities and that indicates short-term goals and actions that ultimately will lead to this desired future. |
The project Smart Urban Mobility consists of three steps: |
Step 1: Ambition The cities play an important role as representatives of the interests of citizens and as experts of urban problems, solutions and policies. They will be asked in the workshops to use this expertise to arrive at a joint desired future scenario on mobility in Dutch cities and new directions for policy. In a first round of interviews the cities are independently asked what their current state and future ambition regarding urban mobility are. Here they can indicate where they want to set priorities in their city, for example by wanting to be a testing ground. |
Step 2: Vision The individual ambitions and priorities from the cities are input for a vision workshop, in which a joint future scenario is created. The result is a visualisation and a short description of the vision. The realisation of the visualization with all partners is important for the acceptance and adoption of the vision by all partners.
In the vision, 3 core elements are key:

Step 3: Roadmap The Roadmap Smart Mobility, developed by LightHouse in the European project Roadmap for Energy (R4E) is the starting point for the Dutch context. In an intensive work session with people from the 5 cities and the ministry, we shared the available knowledge. By subsequently working through the roadmap, we examined which priorities, blind spots and elaborations are relevant for the Dutch context. What do we want to be distinctive in the Netherlands and lead the way and what knowledge is needed in the coming years? Intermediate milestones were also determined where this priority is expressed. This all resulted in a ‘technology opportunities map, where the activities and milestones for 2020 are identified. |
