It is a light infrastructure with high environmental, social, economic and cultural profitability, a useful public work designed to improve the places it crosses without adding volumes and concrete in a massively built-up area. GRAB finally imposes the pedestrianization of the Appia Antica and is the prologue to the birth of a single Capitoline archaeological park from the Fori to the Regina Viarum, it is a magnet for new tourism, from cycle travelers to lovers of urban trekking, a car-free route for mobility interdistrict, the link around which to develop and sew a true metropolitan cycle network, the driving force of widespread interventions for the regeneration of the suburbs and the re-functionalization of marginal and degraded areas.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Thematic Area<\/strong> \u2013 Climate change mitigaton<br \/>\n<strong>Thematic Sub-category &#8211;<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mobilit\u00e0\nSostenibile<\/li>\n<li>Turismo Adattato\nAi Cambiamenti\nClimatici<\/li>\n<li>Domini Di Citt\u00e0\nIntelligenti Per I\nCittadini Nelle Citt\u00e0\nVerdi<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Type of Actor\/Agent<\/strong> &#8211; Local Council<br \/>\n<strong>Typology of Green Urban Site<\/strong> \u2013 Greenbelts,<br \/>\necological corridor or Greenway.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Green City Elements:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mobilit\u00e0 Dolce<\/li>\n<li>Mobilit\u00e0\nIntelligente<\/li>\n<li>Citizen Engagement.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Engagement and Consultation:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Target Groups<\/strong> &#8211; Citizens<br \/>\n<strong>Public Engagement<\/strong> &#8211; Was applied, proper public<br \/>\nengagement<br \/>\n<strong>Consultation Tools Used<\/strong> &#8211; Focus groups,<br \/>\nstakeholder interviews<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/pocityf.eu\/solutions\/\">Link<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Resources and Transferability:<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Teaching Materials\/Resource<\/strong>s: n\/a<br \/>\n<strong>Personal Skills Required:<\/strong> Low<br \/>\n<strong>Non-discriminatory Principles<\/strong>: Yes<br \/>\n<strong>Transferability Potential<\/strong>: Medium<\/p>\n<p><strong>Innovation and Impact<\/strong><br \/>\nThe GRAB project benefits the entire city beyond<br \/>\njust cyclists. It aims to be the core of Rome&#8217;s<br \/>\nfuture cycling network, connecting existing,<br \/>\nplanned, and future routes. It integrates with<br \/>\npublic transport hubs, including subway, tram, and<br \/>\ntrain stations, and includes the construction of<br \/>\nvelostations. Designed with universal accessibility,<br \/>\nit features wide, smooth cycle paths, protected<br \/>\nareas at vehicular crossings, and safety<br \/>\nenhancements like 30 km\/h zones and raised<br \/>\nplatforms at intersections. GRAB serves as a<br \/>\nmodel for new mobility solutions that can be<br \/>\nreplicated across the city.<br \/>\n<strong>Expected Impact<\/strong> Medium<br \/>\n<strong>Level of Scale of Innovation<\/strong> 3<\/p>\n<p><strong>Budget and Analysis:<\/strong><br \/>\nBudget Spent, Source of Money: n\/a<br \/>\n<strong>Benefits<\/strong>:<br \/>\nImproved air quality, Improving physical fitness<br \/>\nand reducing depression, well-being benefits<br \/>\n(such as people\u2019s perception of increased<br \/>\nbiodiversity and improved visual quality of the<br \/>\nenvironment), social cost savings (such as the<br \/>\nimpact of reduced air pollution), creation of green<br \/>\njobs and business opportunities, improved visual<br \/>\nquality of the environment, recreational<br \/>\nopportunities, adjusting psychological well-being<br \/>\nand physical health, improving physical fitness<br \/>\nand reducing depression risks.<br \/>\n<strong>Challenges<\/strong>: n\/a<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":777,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28,47,38,30,35],"tags":[],"cp_meta_data":{"_edit_lock":["1701065915:1"],"_edit_last":["1"],"_oembed_d1489f3b2207ac90f01caf59265ce6ab":["<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"BpSftyVRhY\"><a href=\"https:\/\/pocityf.eu\/solutions\/\">Solutions<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Solutions&#8221; &#8212; POCITYF\" src=\"https:\/\/pocityf.eu\/solutions\/embed\/#?secret=h1OkXRZMqT#?secret=BpSftyVRhY\" data-secret=\"BpSftyVRhY\" width=\"522\" height=\"294\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>"],"_oembed_time_d1489f3b2207ac90f01caf59265ce6ab":["1701065880"],"_thumbnail_id":["777"],"_wpb_vc_js_status":["true"],"_revision-control":["a:1:{i:0;s:8:\"defaults\";}"]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=776"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/776\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/777"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=776"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=776"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/greenvolve-project.eu\/it\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=776"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
