This toolkit has been written primarily for those working in local mobility departments within the CIVITAS network, but can be useful to anyone interested in achieving sustainable urban mobility. It is aimed at those who are involved in planning and implementing transport measures and explains how stakeholder engagement can be achieved and how it can help them in their work. This stakeholder consultation toolkit provides guidelines, tips and checklists to help you with the planning and execution of a range of consultation activities.
Guidelines for Implementers of Neighbourhood Accessibility Planning
The concept of Neighbourhood Accessibility Planning (NAP) aims at improving local conditions for walking and cycling as well as facilitating safe access to local facilities (e.g. schools, shops) and public transport services. A priority list of actions is drafted to enhance the accessibility on a neighbourhood scale. The special needs of more vulnerable groups such as the disabled, older people and children are particularly taken into account. Despite its high relevance and potential to not only improve daily mobility but also social interaction in a neighbourhood, the concept is still the exception in Europe.

This in turn can help public authorities achieve more effective policy and progress. The information and advice contained in this toolkit is designed to assist local, regional and national authorities with various communication considerations.
