Towards an integrated mobility future in a cross-border municipality
The municipality of Raeren, located in the German-speaking Community of Belgium, commissioned the development of a comprehensive mobility plan to guide mobility policies over the next 15 years.
The project combined data analysis, on-site assessments, stakeholder engagement and strategic planning to create a shared vision for sustainable mobility. Particular attention was given to multimodal connections, accessibility, road safety and the integration of mobility with local development objectives.
The resulting action plan provides a clear implementation pathway, supported by prioritization, governance structures and monitoring mechanisms. Throughout the process, citizens, local stakeholders and decision-makers were actively involved through dedicated mobility forums and continuous dialogue.
What this project demonstrates:- Integrated mobility planning across sectors and modes (SUMP approach)
- Cross-border perspectives in local mobility policy
- Stakeholder-centred planning and decision-making
- From strategy development to implementation
- Long-term mobility governance and monitoring
