    Transport and Urban Life

    Members of the Transport and Urban Life Commission on board a historical tramway in Porto.

    THE LOCAL bus operator of Porto, STCP, hosted the meeting of the Transport and Urban Life Commission in April. The Commission made progress in the preparation of a Focus Paper on the economic appraisal of transport projects. Members discussed innovative forms of partnerships between local players for the harmonious development of public transport. As part of the work on social inclusion, a programme of actions to include a reference to public transport in national social inclusion policies was presented. Furthermore, a report on the challenges faced by members and their long-term strategic priorities was outlined as a basis for the identification of new themes for the work programme of the Commission.
