Expertise
The BATS project has developed and tested practical tools for promoting Year-Round Active Mobility (YRAM) in cold, dark and challenging weather conditions. Its expertise covers diagnosing barriers to walking and cycling, designing targeted interventions, activating citizens, and monitoring impacts while accounting for seasonal conditions. Through transnational pilot activities, the project has generated practical guidance, evaluation findings and policy insights for cities seeking to improve year-round active mobility.
BATS - Baltic Sea region Active Mobility Solutions is a collaborative project aiming to ensure active mobility remains a feasible transport mode during the long period of colder and darker weather in the Baltic Sea Region. We promote the concept of Year-round Active Mobility (YRAM). Project time: November 2023 - October 2026.
