The TRIBUTE project has entered its second year

The whole consortium is planning to have the next Steering Committee Meeting in Novi Sad (Serbia) on next July, and to organized it in presence after the ending of travel restriction due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The agenda and the details of possible side events would be circulated soon. The meeting will be the occasion for the project partners to discuss about the results achieved so far in the implementation of the living lab and of the pilot actions, and to sort out the setbacks encountered during the first months, in view of the definition of the TRIBUTE transnational strategy for the sustainable mobility in the Adriatic-Ionian cities.

Some anticipations have been presented during the Annual ADRION event held on May 17th in Tirana (Albania), within the 7th Forum of the EU Strategy for the Adriatic and Ionian Region (EUSAIR). On this occasion prof. Coppola (Politecnico di Milano, TRIBUTE Lead partner) presented the TRIBUTE approach (“quadruple helix”) for the identification of actions oriented to low-carbon and inclusive urban mobility, with a focus on the “Mobility Islands” concept, i.e. pilot action implemented by the City of Sarajevo. Besides, TRIBUTE will be present with its own stand at the Velocity 2022 conference to be held in Ljubljana (Slovenia), organised from June 14th to 17th by the European Cyclists’ Federation (ECF). This will be a great opportunity to explore new possibilities for cooperation with other European cities, and to share preliminary results of the TRIBUTE pilot actions, particularly those related to the development of green cycling routes.

The City of Ljubljana continues to provide a free of charge on-demand public transport service with an electric vehicle in the pilot area of University Medical Centre Ljubljana and Institute of Oncology Ljubljana. In the period between July 1, 2021 and March 31, 2022, the service between the facilities in the pilot area was used by 7.925 passengers. The results of the survey with users of the “Klinko KAVALIR” PT service showed a high level of user satisfaction, especially among those who come to medical treatments from other cities. In cooperation with our stakeholders we want the service to be further improved according to their needs and expectations.
