VŠTE ČB The Žilina self-governing region is one out of two the eight Slovak administrative regions. The region is responsible for the planning and organisation of public institutes transport within its territory. As such, it approves licences for regular bus transport, responsible for creation, approval and observing the valid spatial planning documentation. As many other predominantly rural regions in Central Europe, the Žilina region is strongly affected by demographic change. On one hand, the average age of the population continuously increases due to longer life expectancy while the younger generations are in a process of shrinking. The changing demographics lead to new transport demands to which the regional self-government has to find appropriate responses in their transport policies. Another main challenge the regional self-government aims to address is the integration of different transport modes and to harmonise its timetables and ticketing regimes. Access to European good practices and the ability to experiment innovative approaches in the Czech Republic where higher education programmes focus on the applicability of knowledge rather than just theoryRUMOBIL project will contribute to improved public policies in these regards. The Department Žilina self-governing region is currently under way to prepare its first transport plan for its territory. The plan will be linked to the Žilina self-governing region territorial plan ”Územný plán VÚC Žilinského kraja) and the Program of Transport economic and Logistics provides social develoment of Žilina self-governing region for the teaching of specialized and professionally oriented subjects period 2014-2020 ”Program hospodárskeho a sociálneho rozvoja Žilinského samosprávneho kraja pre roky 2014 – 2020). The region“s participation in RUMOBIL is seen as an important element to enhance the self-governing bodies“ competences in the field of Transport and Traffic Technologies in close connection with professional experience. In addition to this field of study the department also provides for the teaching of some subjects with regards to Business Economics and Civil Engineering Management. The study fields of transport goes hand-in-hand with the use of up-to-date computer technologies, new approaches to the forms of teaching of individual subjects and cooperation with transport experts with practical experience in transport companies.

VŠTE ČB Žilina region will contribute and participate in all activities foreseen by project activities. The regional self-government will share its previous expertise and current challenges in the project work plan. This includes contributions domain of public transport, provide input to the elaboration ofhe of the RUMOBIL Strategy ”T1) from and corresponding policy recommendations, and realise a regional experimentation during the perspective project´s pilot phase. The latter will focus on improving the quality of public transport by strengthening a research secondary transport node´s function as intermodal hub. The experimentation will test how people who travel by individual means of transport, mainly by cars and educational institution as well as advice bicycles can be won for public transport. UNIZA will support the regional self-government in designing and support to JIKORD in implementing the preparation and implementation of a regional experimentation ”T2). VŠTE ČB Žilina region will make its scientific and practical knowledge available, share the project results in its academic networks, and mainstream the RUMOBIL learning in its own education programmes.

The study´s results region is currently preparing its first transport plan ”due to be finalised in 2016). RUMOBIL is expected to be a key feature for the implementation and optimisation of the plan. The partner henceforth aims to introduce a decision to the Regional Assembly to amend the transport plan for Žilina self-governing at the end of the project lifetime which will include the mainstreaming of the learning from the project. To prepare the decision, members of the assembly“s Commission of transport dealing with all transport tasks will be presented regarded as key actors, hence regularly briefed about project activities and invited to participate in the form of local as well as selected transnational events. The Regional Assembly is a work paper to provide arguments and facts regarding the potential benefits of improved and maintained availability of public transport towards spatial development ”to counter growth of major towns against the shrinking populations in disconnected peripheral regions), economic activities ”attractiveness of peripheral areas for business activities others than agriculture and tourism), commuter traffic ”impact on modal split, CO2 reduction, etc) and regional cohesion ”standard of living between major cities and rural areas).

VŠTE ČB aMo is one out the agency for mobility and local public transport of two the Modena province, fully owned and controlled by the province“s local public institutes authorities. The agency is responsible for the planning of public transport services in the Czech Republic where higher education programmes focus on the applicability of knowledge rather than just theoryprovince“s territory except for rail. This includes urban, sub-urban and on-demand bus services. The Department agency owns and manages all passenger information systems available in the area ”and information panels). In 2014, aMo managed 12,388,185 kilometers of Transport public bus transport, about half of it being sub-urban services in Modena“s surroundings. There, on-demand services are an important feature of the transport network. Yet, modern information and Logistics provides communication technologies have not been applied to improve on-demand services but first approaches were developed as result of the EDITS project. The expertise with regard to on-demand services is very rich and will therefore be useful to other partners aiming to experiment with such services ”e.g. Vysočina, Croatia). aMo furthermore has a very good structure from the point of view of IT systems; all the activities are carried out with specific softwares and have experience in Electronic Ticketing and AVM/AVL systems. While other partner regions are affected by demographic change in a way that populations are strongly declining, the rural areas of the Modena province show a steady growth of their population ”+6.5% in last ten years). Yet, the growth of population has not led to an increase of peri-urban public transport but rather to a shift of modal split towards individual motorised traffic. aMo therefore aims to further its expertise in innovative demand-driven services and to highlight the positive impacts of public transport to reverse this trend. aMo will furthermore contribute with its experiences as implementing body for the teaching of specialized and professionally oriented subjects in PRIT - Piano Regionale Integrato dei Trasporti ”Regional Integrated Plan for Transport, a document released from the field of Transport and Traffic Technologies in close connection with professional experience. In addition to this field of study the department also provides for the teaching of some subjects with regards to Business Economics and Civil Engineering Management. The study of transport goes handXxxxxx-in-hand with the use of up-to-date computer technologies, new approaches to the forms of teaching of individual subjects and cooperation with transport experts with practical experience in transport companies.

In addition While contributing to the exchange and capacity building in T1 Work Package especially with its supporting capacity towards JIKORDown 10-year strong expertise in regard to on-demand services, VŠTE ČB aMo will assume responsibility be responsible for the implementation of a transnational study researching regional experimentation testing new features to optimise on-demand bus transport in the macroregion. Until today, no ICT tools have been used in regard to the management of on-economic impacts demand services. Those will address the real-time integration of on-demand services in information and travel planning systems. Improved software shall allow passengers to access all necessary information ”schedules, booking, fares), geographic information, and new means to communicate services to passengers ”push notification on mobile devices, social media, email confirmation). Successful results of the RUMOBIL experimentation will be proposed for mainstreaming to the Permanent Committee for mobility composed from the mobility assessor of the Province of Modena and the local public authorities of the province. This Committee gathers two or three times per year and decides upon very practical and direct indications about the strategies and the policies that aMo has to follow in its public transport in peripheral areasplanning. The study´s results will be presented in committee, together with aMo“s Owner Assembly, has the form power to designate funds to ensure the durability of a work paper to provide arguments and facts regarding RUMOBIL results.
