The first web application to implement the Home-To-School Mobility Plan Powered by MOVESION S.r.l. Via Ruggero Bonghi, 11b 00184 Rome (RM) - ITALY T +39 06 622 736 06 E [email protected] W movesion.com CONTEXT The school Mobility of the students and of those who drive them to school represents one of the major problems relating to traffic con- gestion and urban mobility: traffic nearby schools, the parents who double park and too little safety related to high-school students mobility, who ride their moped every morning to get to school. Today we need to find alternative, more sustainable and bet- ter-organized solutions in order to avoid all that. SOLUTION The Home-To-School Mobility Plan Through a careful study of the causes generating this problem, we can solve it by using the Home-To-School Mobility Plan, which provides a detailed analysis of the mobility habits of the students, teachers and parents. TOOL MobilitySchool MobilitySchool is a software developed by Movesion to imple- ment the Home-To-School Mobility Plan. By filling in a briefquestionnaire , available also on smartphones and tablets, MobilitySchool provides a detailed picture of mo- bility habits of students, teachers and parents: their departure point, their destination, where they park, the pollution level, their needs and their ability to switch to other and more sus- tainable mobility solutions. HOW IT WORKS The procedure It sends a brief questionnaire, to fill in online, to all users. It produces a report with the results of the survey, also in Excel format, containing more than 60 mobility indicators. It plans intervention scenarios by using a simulation model integrated in the software. It automatically calculates the emissions for six different kinds of pollutants and shows geographically the results. BENEFITS The features Complete: it analyses the various aspects of school mobility (car parks, school buses, public transport, subsidies, carpooling, cycling mobility, etc.) Flexible: it can be customized according to specific needs and features of the surrounding environment. It is possible to inter- act with the questionnaire, the maps and much more. Easy: it performs one-month work in a few seconds, saving school resources and time. Smart: it suggests the most successful interventions for the problems of your school. PLANNING Suggestions Besides analysing the problem, it is also essential to understand how to solve it through adequate intervention measures. MobilitySchool can do it, thanks to its integrated computational tools. A powerful algorithm, developed and optimized during the years thanks to studies and researches in the field of schools’ mobility, gives, at the end of the investigation, a list of interven- tions that are applicable in the examined reality, sorting them depending on the effectiveness forecasted in the specific case. APP Use Appedibus With MobilitySchool, there is also an App to: Plan the routes. Organize the turns of the voluntary parents. Geolocate the children on their way to and back from school. Send alerts and news to parents who are at home. The values MobilitySchool is an efficient tool to find and solve all mobili- ty-related problems and it has been created to actively involve headmasters, teachers, students and parents in this process. One of the soundest and most interesting aspects of Mobili- tySchool is the message for younger generations: making the world more sustainable is possible by making easy choices. Becoming aware of this idea since childhood is a huge invest- ment for the future, both for children and for our community. Our customers “A.
