Summary

Machine-generated summary

The European Commission's DG JRC (Joint Research Centre) procured methodological support to strengthen its modelling tools for assessing accessibility to destinations such as employment, healthcare and education. The work covers active mobility modes, walking and cycling, high-resolution transport poverty indicators down to a 100-metre-by-100-metre scale, affordability considerations including vulnerability to fuel price or public transport fare increases across the EU, and support for the Transport Poverty Hub. Methodologies, scripts and documentation remain with the JRC for in-house reuse. The estimated value was EUR 139,500. Bidding closed on 19 August 2026 and no further bids can be submitted.

Description

The aim of this contract is to strengthen the analytical capabilities of the Joint Research Centre (JRC)'s modelling tools for assessing accessibility to relevant destinations (including employment, healthcare, and education services). This enhancement shall focus on active mobility modes, such as walking and cycling, which are integral to developing sustainable transport systems and which complement public transport models and analyses. By improving the characterisation of active modes and transport networks in the European Union (EU), the project shall enable analyses for specific vulnerable profiles and enhance the accuracy of results, to effectively inform related policy decisions. The contract will have to provide methodological support to the JRC for generating high-resolution (down to a 100-metre-by-100-metre scale) indicators that capture the multidimensional nature of transport poverty. Such indicators shall incorporate affordability considerations and help assess, for instance, vulnerability to increases in fuel prices or public transport fares across the EU. Finally, the contract shall support the development of the Transport Poverty Hub. External support allows the JRC to draw on the state-of-the-art knowledge of researchers active in the emerging field of characterisation of active mode networks and the integration of affordability into transport poverty indicators. The methodologies, scripts and documentation produced under the contract remain with the JRC so that the resulting capability can be maintained, extended, and re-used in-house.
