Revision of the Budapest Mobility Plan, and the Alignment of Urban and Transport Strategies in Budapest

In 2019 Budapest have introduced its first SUMP, the Budapest Mobility Plan (BMT). As part of the SUMP process, a revision process has started in 2021. The planning process will align the objectives of the BMT with the integrated regional development strategy and the urban development plan of Budapest. This will ensure the functional integration of urban design and transport infrastructure in the city. As a part of the planning, the monitoring and evaluation process will also be revised, including a set of indicators assigned to the SUMPs by the EU, called SUMIs (Sustainable Urban Mobility Indicators). The monitoring system of mobility plan will also be aligned with indicators of the urban development strategy, ensuring a common monitoring system and evaluation procedure of urban and transport planning in Budapest. In this paper the authors will outline the methodology for choosing objectives and indicators following the SMART (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant and Time-bound) principle, that assure the alignment of urban and transport planning goals. The authors will also detail the formation of the monitoring system, and policy evaluation methodologies. The monitoring system consist of multiple layers, evaluating strategic goals and objectives on the one hand, and operational goals and projects on the other hand. Indicators and calculations related to these different layers, need to follow different methodologies, while also providing a comprehensive evaluation of the whole plan. Moreover, when creating the monitoring system, both current data constraint and possible technological evolutions have to be factored into the work.
