New Horizon Europe Project will focus on the impact of transports on air quality

C2TN is part of the consortium that won the Horizon Europe project MI-TRAP – Mitigating Transport-Related Air Pollution in Europe.  Mi-TRAP will bring together 26 parties from universities, research centers, companies and industry. 

MI-TRAP project aims to improve the currently available Tools and services for air pollution mitigation from transport sources through a multi-dimensional approach. The project will develop and provide a suite of beyond the state-of-the-art innovative monitoring Instrumentation package, data analysis tools to track emitted pollutants, enable systematic traffic management and evaluate the effectiveness of legislation and control measures. Additionally, MI-TRAP recognizes the importance of Nature based Solutions (NBS) and implements pilot NBS in selected sites, in order to facilitate mitigation of air and noise pollution. The project will also incorporate citizen science practices, disseminating findings through open science and citizen-science approaches with the support of key stakeholders and citizens.

The researchers from IST will focus on the impact and mitigation of the transport emissions in the city of Lisbon, which is highly affected by ground, air and marine transports. 

MI-TRAP project is coordinated in IST by the C2TN researcher Marta Almeida.
