SYNAPTIC | Share Your Synergies

SYNAPTIC stands for “Synergy of New Advanced Public Transport Solutions Improving Connectivity in North-West Europe” and is an EU-Funded INTERREG IVB cluster of the four North-West European mobility projects RoCK, BAPTS, Sintropher and ICMA amobilife. It brings together 52 partners, from eight North-West European Countries with one common objective: to enhance the framework conditions for intermodality and seamless door-to-door journeys.

Interreg IVB NWE funded project cluster Synaptic consists of 52 partners from eight Northwest European countries:

 

For ICMA (Improving Connectivity and Mobility Access)

           

               

                 

        

 

For RoCK (Regions of Connected Knowledge)

   

           

         

          

 

For Sintropher

Transnational Scenario Development Team

Starting in January 2012, 4 interdisciplinary teams, consisting out of 12 selected students from 5 universities, will be working on developing a synthesis of NWE mobility project results in form of scenarios for future seamless travel.

With the help and guidance of experts from the 4 NWE mobility projects, RoCK, BAPTS, ICMA and SINTROPHER and experts from the engaging universities, the mostly postgraduate students from the University College London, University of Aberdeen, University of Wuppertal, University of Bielefeld and Breda University of Applied Sciences, will analyze typical North West European journies from different target group perspectives.

The student’s work will be one of several contributions upon which the synaptic partnership will base its recommendations for future EU funding priorities, especially in the area of Interreg V mobility and transport projects.
