Brindisi's SUMP was adopted in 2023. It is a strategic and programmatic instrument that is designed to address and improve the urban mobility system over a medium to long-term horizon. The SUMP aims to enhance urban mobility by promoting sustainable transportation, improving traffic flow, and reducing environmental pollution. Its strategic goal is to transition the city towards a more sustainable and efficient transportation system by integrating various modes of mobility.

The SUMP encompasses all aspects of mobility including public transportation, road safety, electric mobility, shared mobility services, parking, and soft mobility like cycling and walking. It operates with a ten-year horizon and a five-year intermediate milestone to program and monitor mobility interventions within a flexible, non-conforming plan framework. This adaptability allows for the incorporation of alternative intervention lines based on available funding and dynamics of private-public collaboration. The plan aims amongst others to encourage a shift from private vehicle use to public and non-motorized transport and incorporate feedback from stakeholders through workshops and public consultations. Additionally, it considers the adoption of smart mobility solutions to improve parking management. The SUMP is a key instrument for regulating shared mobility on a local level, focusing on creating conducive policies for parking and integrating shared mobility into housing and urban development plans.

This agreement stipulates the vision and the priorities of the current policy. With regard to this project, following articles are of great importance:

- We create a long-term vision for neighbourhood development for every neighbourhood and district. This is necessary to correctly implement projects with a substantial spatial impact framework and to ensure the future living quality of the neighbourhood.

- We will continue to focus on bike sharing systems and optimize the existing ones.

- Free/cheap and high-quality P+R solutions must be offered on all major access roads, as well as punctual and comfortable connections with the inner city. We will also implement other functions where possible (refuelling, charging, car wash...), as long as they offer added value to the trade in the city
centre.

- We encourage mobility services, such as shared bikes and shared cars. We continue to facilitate and promote these services.

The Traffic Development Strategy was adopted in 2012 with a 10-year horizon until 2022. The revision of the existing one was supposed to cover the period from 2022 on, but not has been done so far. The city will revise the strategy with a new 10-year horizon with concrete implementation priority actions for the first 4 years.

The current strategy outlines the following key characteristics:

- Improvement of Road Infrastructure: Addressing congestion and enhancing connectivity across the urban and peri-urban areas.
- Public Transport Enhancement: Upgrading the quality, accessibility, and frequency of public transit to meet diverse community needs.
- Promotion of Sustainable Mobility: Encouraging walking, cycling, and the adoption of green transport solutions.
- Traffic Safety and Management: Introducing measures to improve road safety and manage traffic flow effectively.
- Environmental Sustainability: Reducing the ecological footprint of the transport sector through cleaner technologies and green initiatives.
- Integration of Different Transport Modes: Developing seamless connections between various modes of transport to enhance efficiency.
- Urban Planning and Land Use: Aligning transport planning with urban development to optimize land use and accessibility.
- Public Engagement and Participation: Involving citizens in the planning process to ensure inclusivity and responsiveness.

European Funds for Podkarpackie Region 2021-2027 is one of the 16 Regional Operational Programmes in Poland co-financed by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and European Social Funds (ESF) under the European Union's (EU) cohesion policy. The main objective of the Programme is the development of the economy and improvement of the spatial accessibility of Podkarpackie Region. ROP Podkarpackie will contribute to the implementation of the EU's goals regarding a climate-neutral economy and a coherent and inclusive society, in line with the EU's Green Deal, the Sustainable Growth Strategy and UN Agenda 2030.

PARSMO is specifically links to priority 4: mobility and connectivity:
- Increasing the sustainable mobility of residents, improving accessibility and conditions of travel
- Increasing transport capacity, reducing the negative impact of transport on the natural environment (decrease in CO2 and other pollutant emissions)
- Improving the safety of road users
- Increasing the transport capacity and attractiveness of rail transport for users
- Reducing individual road transport
- Increasing energy efficiency transport system
- Increasing accessibility for people with reduced mobility.

The Regional Operational Programme (ROP) defines the key directions of the overall development strategy of the Region of Peloponnese and comprises a key policy instrument towards the achievement of the targets set. Aligned with the European policy targets, ROP 2021-2027 is structured based on 8 priorities. Priority 2 on the Regional Operational Programme (ROP), which relates to “Greener Europe”, is titled “Sustainable development and sustainable management of the Region's resources”. However, this priority and its specific topics have no link to the topics handled within PARSMO. Therefore, priority 3 "A more interconnected Europe by enhancing mobility” was chosen. Specific topic 3.2 focuses on the development and enhancement of sustainable, climate change-resistant, smart and intermodal national, regional and local mobility, with better access to TEN-T and cross-border mobility. This fits perfect with PARSMO's scope.

By evaluating the quality of transport services in the region, it aims to ensure fast, safe, and sustainable passenger and freight transport during all-year round. However, until today, the ROP focuses mainly on infrastructure investments of “traditional” transport modes, while other “soft” actions and new schemes, such as shared mobility and its parking management needs, should also be taken into account.

The regional public transport program for Kronoberg County is the region's most important document for the development of public transportation. The program serves as the strategic blueprint for advancing public transportation. The program aims to make public transport fundamental to creating a sustainable region, enhancing residents' daily lives through social, ecological, and economic sustainability. The program prioritizes developing a strong public transport system to support regional growth and improve quality of life.

The PARSMO project will concentrate on the segment of the public transport program dedicated to examining stops and transfer points as pivotal elements of the transportation system. By learning and investigating how to integrate shared mobility options such as bike-sharing, car-sharing, and ride-hailing services with public transport, these places/hubs can effectively address critical gaps in the transport network.

The PARSMO project presents an opportunity to explore and refine this policy program aimed at creating a cohesive and sustainable transportation ecosystem. This ecosystem is designed to meet the diverse needs of travelers, minimize environmental impact, and foster attractive and functional spaces that are accessible to all. This integration not only enhances the reach and convenience of public transport but also encourages a shift away from reliance on private cars.
