City-Region Connectivity and TEN-T Urban Nodes: Integrated Planning and Multimodal Infrastructure

This session explores how cities and regions translate mobility strategies into delivery beyond administrative boundaries, in order to consider commuting and freight delivery patterns, access to services from sub-urban and remote areas and related investment needs. The discussion will focus on integrated planning, multimodal hubs, cross-border continuity, governance, funding, data sharing, service integration and operational coordination. 

Speakers will be invited to focus on concrete deployment cases: what was implemented, who had to coordinate, what barriers emerged, how they were addressed, and what other cities or regions can realistically replicate. Expected takeaways include practical approaches for city-region integration, cross-border continuity, hub and service integration, and KPIs covering reliability, accessibility, emissions and multimodal performance.
