Objective
The aim is to inform policy makers about the potential of non-technical transport measures to improve the air quality and reduce the emissions of greenhouses gases. Non technical measures cover a wide range of measures like public transport and intermodality, traffic management, efficient road freight transport, pricing measures and other measures influencing driver and travel behaviour. The objectives of the project are therefore :
- to provide a synthesis of relevant results from national and EU-level transport RTD projects
- to service the inter-governmental committee
- to produce guidelines at local, national and European level for the evaluation and selection of cost-efficient non-technical measures to reduce emissions of toxic pollutants and greenhouse gases from transport
- to foster information exchange and consensus building in the framework of the Transport RTD programme
- to indicate future research needs
%
The first step will be to detail the scope, the target audiences and their information needs, the measures to be assessed and the parameters to be considered. CANTIQUE will identify and review the methodologies used in previous studies and provide a detailed analytical framework for the subsequent steps.
The second step will be to compile and make consistent all data and information gathered during the assessment of measures from national and European research projects, previous and ongoing work of the Commission and from literature. All data will be brought to a consistent level and thus will be directly comparable.
The third step will be to evaluate the impacts of measures on emissions and air quality, their feasibility and costs. It will include a list ranking the most cost-efficient non-technical measures and an analytical framework for the detailed assessment of measures. Furthermore, aggregated assessment results on European level, where relevant, will be highlighted.
Special considerations will be given to central and eastern European countries where the economic and environmental conditions as well as obstacles for the implementation of non technical measures will be taken into account.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
