MORECO: Steering future housing to smart locationswith effective public transport and good supply facilities

SIR

Scenario: heavily rising mobility costscaused by rising energy prices – smart locations reduce risks

Cheap site, large living area

Garden, green surroundings

Freedom, prestige, property

graphics. SIR

The Common Dream: A house in green surroundings

The solution?

New house on a “cheap” location

Usually only accessible by private car

graphics. SIR

SIR

The Problem: The more central, the more expensive

Private costs: car(s), fuel, stress, physical inactivity

Social costs: infrastructure, pollutants, noise, diseases, land consumption

Risks: energy price, traffic congestions, accidents, life-cycle, property value

SIR

The Consequence: Long distances

Short distances, liveable surroundings

High number of pedestrians and cyclists

Proximity to supply facilities and public transport

MORECO ObjectiveLiving in smart locations

To support a sustainable settlement development which follows supply facilities and public transport axes.

To steer future the housing market towards smart locationsthat offer a good quality of supply to minimise future mobility costs. graphics. SIR

Governance contextIssues and impact

• A complexity and multiplicity of actors (housing, transport, spatial planning, land use...)

• A difficulty to identify and understand the key factors of individual choices, and levers to influence them

• A need for volontarism regarding public and private decision makers and public policies

The planning boundaries are not necessarily related to residential sprawl, and individual choices are not always taken in a rational and collective interest way

Coordination between actors and perimeters, balance between individual needs and collective issues shall be balanced

MORECO Partnership10 partners, 5 alpine countries

MORECO Common Declaration

Smart locations and alternative means of transportto the car for a better liveability

….. Given the findings of the project, the partners have definedthe following four strategic priorities:

•Foster projects around existing and future public transport hubs

•Provide households with tools in order to rationalise theirresidential choices with regard to the residence/mobility costs

•Reduce commuting by car and encourage the use of collective means of transport

•Continue striving to objectively weigh up the respective costs of urban sprawl and rebuilding inner city sites or local authorities

These priorities for action will be backed up and made sustainable by the creation of a network in which the MORECO partners will continue exchanging experiences and good practices. …
