PARALLEL WORKSHOPS #1:
Addressing congestion: The politics of choosing walking and cycling solutions
This session starts with a panel of politicians and explores their experiences to
address walking and cycling as transport modes. We then break into groups to
share practical ideas from cities and how the project results can help decision

Jerusalem (Israel), Niš (Serbia) and Valencia (Spain)
• Interactive discussion in groups
• Wrap up and conclusion, Adam Bodor, European Cyclists’ Federation

Hands-on workshop: TRACE developed tracking tools that enable behaviour
change. The practitioners will explain what and how they organised their
campaigns. You will share experiences and opinions about tracking behaviour and
data collection in three thematic working groups:
• Incentives and rewarding apps
• Human-centred campaigns
• Connecting data
Moderator: Martin Kracheel, LuxMobility & Jeroen Blom, IJsberg Consultants

PARALLEL WORKSHOPS #3:
FLOW tools: how to make them work for your city
This session will discuss how to transfer the concept behind the FLOW tools, ice
multi-modal assessments and focus on the barriers and drivers for doing this
within different jurisdictions. We will look particularly at lessons learned,
successes and ideas for action.
