Impact Assessment Tool

The aim of this tool

The overall objective of the HUPMOBILE project is to provide a holistic approach to the planning, implementation, optimisation and management of integrated, sustainable mobility solutions in Baltic Sea port cities. Mobility in this context includes both people and goods (i.e., freight, cargo logistics and delivery). Concrete examples of innovations addressed are greener urban logistics and combinations of goods- and passenger traffic, intelligent traffic systems-based services, tools for stakeholder participation, and new tools for transportation mobility management and Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS). Thus, this tool looks broadly into mobility solutions affecting the sustainability of transportation – new mobility management policies, technical solutions, or new mobility services.

The simple, and at the same time, the bold aim of this tool is to help city planners to assess the impact of an implemented sustainable mobility solution together with selected participants of stakeholders. This tool is a trade-off between the amount of information needed to make an assessment and information needed to communicate the impact to stakeholders and other cities still thinking about implementing similar solutions. In this sense, this tool aims not to replace existing impact assessment methodologies or services but to help communicate the excellent work cities are doing in improving transportation sustainability. An example of the HUPMOBILE Impact Assessment result is below. More can already be found in the HUPMOBILE Database of successful mobility solutions from the Baltic Sea Region and beyond.

Building blocks of the assessment

Assessment process

To set up an assessment process, you can use the building blocks on the Impact Assessment Process page and localize the process for your needs. You can also contact us (information below) for assistance in any part of the process or if you want to include the resulting assessment in our database. We have also made you example pages of a possible assessment process.

Assessment template

Each of the different fields of the HUPMOBILE Assessment Template has its purpose and should be completed according to the instructions found on the Information Fields in the HUPMOBILE Assessment Document page.

Supporting documents

Our repository of supporting documents – including information about the indicators and statements used in the assessment – can be found on the Supporting Documents page.
