The subject of transport, its sustainable enhancement and development constitutes one of the keys to territorial regeneration, respecting the protection of the landscape and maximizing the effectiveness of the technological evolution of transport and economic-logistic optimization. These are the topics of the conference “Territorial environment, innovation and economy: the role of mobility planning and design”, which the community “Mobility, infrastructure and logistics” of the INU organizes in the context of the national urban planning review: respecting the concept of sustainable development, in harmony with the Brundtland report and with the utmost attention paid to the relations between mobility and transport infrastructures and production areas and settlement environments, the conference intends to be a faithful interpreter of the aims and cultural interests of the INU, including planning and policies on a territorial basis, a topic at the center of the European debate referring to political practices generating territorial impacts. All closely linked to socio-economic development planning.
The Italian territory is affected by an unbalanced infrastructural endowment and mobility and transport services which do not contribute to resolving long-standing environmental, economic and social issues, such as land consumption, landscape impact, the increase in external transport costs and related environmental and health ones, the demographic depopulation of internal areas (also due to the lack of adequate collective mobility services): factors whose solutions, although distinguishable due to the different specific characteristics of a specific regional area or settlement or site, are peculiarly characterized by common attributes. For each solution, there are minimum common denominators, collimating with the objectives of the conference, which will be presented to attempt to respond and remedy the consequences of questionable or incorrect choices that have heavily influenced the territory and Italian socioeconomic habits, relating to mobility, transport and logistics, of the last eighty years.
