Interested parties are invited to submit project ideas sustainable mobility planning that look at the different morphological characteristics of the island, its urban fabric, the areas that define it and a series of critical issues such as the difficulty of making changes to a consolidated road system, the limited offer of public transport or a higher motorization rate compared to the Italian average.
The tourist vocation of the island makes it essential solve these problems according to the environmental and landscape characteristics, through a balance between the needs of visitors and those of residents, between the social and rural needs of the territory.

Projects must have strategies that aim at dissemination of sustainable mobility models with low environmental impact, which will inevitably have a positive impact on the quality of life of residents and tourists. The example to look at is the one defined by the European Council in 2006, according to which it is necessary to focus on transport systems that correspond to economic and social needs, minimizing the negative effects on the environment.
Participants will have to foresee solutions for the movement of passengers and goodsfor the transit of tourist busesfor the rationalization of mobility flows and for the maintaining attractiveness.
