Supporting Smarter Mobility

Intelligent road pricing proves useful in directing change and mobility behaviour

Supporting ITS Action Plan Flanders

Supporting the Flemish Government in the creation of her ITS Action Plan

The Brussels Government reached an agreement on 3 December on a smart road pricing scheme. This was substantiated by TML in collaboration with the Université Saint-Louis - Bruxelles. Our impact study (NL and FR) lists the effects on mobility and external costs of transport, budgetary effects and socio-economic effects.
