The purpose of this paper is to present the outcomes and the experience gained through the elaboration of a transnational cooperation project SUMPORT (Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans -SUMPs -in MED-port cities, which comprised elaboration of sustainable mobility plans and pilot or permanent implementation of mobility measures in six (6) Mediterranean cities with ports. Based on a joint methodology for implementation, monitoring, and evaluation, and adjusted to the type of action (planning, implementation), three sustainable mobility plans (SMPs) have been developed (one as urban plan, the second as regional -integrated with the city's SUMP -and the third as a micro-SMP within a port -integrated with the city's SUMP as well). In addition, different types of measures, which had been planned in pre-existing SUMPs have been implemented, targeted to the improvement of active mobility (bike lanes, bike-sharing systems), enhancement of intelligent transportation systems for public transport and parking management, testing of car-pooling potential for workers at ports, and simulation of a new maritime public transport service for decongestion of coastal roads traffic. This paper presents the results of the planning exercises and implemented measures and highlights the lessons learnt from their deployment in different environments/contexts, which have been used for transferring this experience to other Mediterranean cities.
