Analysis of New Sustainable Mobility Solutions for Maritime Passengers Transport

This chapter aims to describe new sustainable people’s mobility solutions, in the field of maritime cross-border transport. The review proposed here extends beyond the typical review of technological solutions. Starting from the need to profile the cross-border traveller and the overall context, four possible strategies for reducing the environmental impact of a transport system are identified. Technology is an important catalyst of sustainable transport strategy but the changes in behaviours, the adoption of data-based planning process and the definition of targeted policy measures (e.g., soft measures adoption) are important as well.
