PUMS — Project — Tramviary Transport — Florence Metropolitan City

The Urban Plan of Sustainable Mobility (PUMS) is the strategic document that aims to guide urban mobility policies for the next 10 years.The realisation of the Florentine tram system, a reliable, regular, frequent and high capacity public transport network, plays a central role in the PUMS of the Metropolitan City. It is an infrastructure of primary strategic importance, a corridor of strength, which will allow the operation of a public service with a high potential. The exact location of the tramways may be subject to changes and updates during the various design phases compared to what is reported in the drafts of this plan.The drafting of the PUMS is based on a scenario logic, aimed at verifying and comparing the effects of different possible strategies for the governance of mobility: the Reference Scenario (i.e. the interventions that can be carried out independently of the PUMS because they are already planned-programmed and already provided with financial coverage), the Plan Scenario (i.e. the infrastructural and non-infrastructure interventions, additional to the Scenario of reference that meet the general and specific objectives set by the PUMS), the evolutionary scenario. The geographical data of the PUMS published refer to the three scenarios of the plan contained in the approved tables.The Florence Metropolitan Council initiated the procedure for the drafting of the metropolitan PUMS and SEA verification with Resolution No 121 of 19 December 2018 and by Resolution of the Metropolitan Council No 24 of 21 April 2021 definitively approved the Pums-Urban Sustainable Mobility Plan of the Metrocity.
