Held on October 9-10, 2024, the Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan (SUMP) training in Prague, Czechia, successfully attracted 26 participants. The training included three core modules on SUMP methodology and six selected modules that provided an in-depth look at specific SUMP-related topics and their integration into a SUMP. The training began with introductions by Mgr. Michal Ulrich from the Czech Ministry of Transport and Paul Riley from EIB-JASPERS, followed by a tour de table. Participants then discussed the basics of SUMP methodology and practice, explored the link between strategic plans and project preparation, and discussed urban nodes and the interface between local and strategic transport. The day continued with sessions on indicators, targets, and monitoring, and concluded with a focus on road safety and street design, wrapping up with a summary of the day’s activities. The second day covered sessions on SUMPs for small and medium-sized cities, active modes and micro-mobility, and freight and logistics. The afternoon covered citizen and stakeholder engagement and communication, with the training concluding with wrap-up remarks.
