Home-Work Commute Plan (HWCP) – 2024 edition

The 2024 HWCP edition, approved by the Academic Senate on 22 July 2024 and by the Board of Governors on 30 July 2024, is an update, in accordance with recent legislations, of the previous 2021 edition of the HWCP. The plan is the result of a participatory process which saw the involvement of over 70 members of the technical-administrative staff. It is based on the 2023 context data and transport demand analysis data from the 2022 Mobility Survey.

The HWCP aims at reducing the use of private motorized vehicles by workers and students, and has a key role in achieving the objectives concerning mobility, in accordance with the 2023-2025 Strategic Sustainability Plan.

The document is divided into the following sections: a brief introduction, reference legislation, context data on mobility, analysis of the supply (with planimetric detail) and demand for transport, actions to incentivize sustainable mobility, estimate of the impacts of the strategic actions envisaged by the HWCP, conclusions.

Starting from the analysis of the modal share, and taking into consideration the changes that have occurred compared to 2019 and all the results emerging from the 2022 survey, various strategic actions have been identified (some already financed, others to be financed) to promote the use of alternative transport methods to the use of private motorized vehicles, reducing the CO2 emissions as well.

In particular, the “promotion of cycling mobility” objective, based on the propensity to change towards more sustainable travel methods that emerged from the compilation of the 2022 survey, counts the greatest funding amount, specifically aimed at increasing the number of dedicated infrastructures (installation of 800 new bike stalls, now in progress).
