Transport Networks & Urban Mobility

The Transport Research Group works on issues related to infrastructure, freight transportation and mobility, logistics corridors and the transport policies of Spain, the EU and Latin America. This includes the promotion of multimodality, the creation of transport networks and the improvement of logistics parks as fundamental nodes for the development of the supply chain. The Group is also working in the development of new business models for urban mobility and SUMP’s.

The transfer of knowledge is part of the research objectives. This transfer is achieved through presentations at congresses, conferences and workshops, courses and also through publications in journals, magazines, books and press.
