TP2- Multimodal system and
interurban public transport
The development of regional mobility and
optimization of public transport aims
at improving and making more efficient
the movement of individuals within this
geographic and socio-economic space.
The Integrated Corss-sectorial Plan of the
Economic Area Tirana-Durres aims to provide
quick access to the main regional hubs and
poles to facilitate the movement of residents
and tourists and to create the necessary
conditions for mobility efficiency in day-to-day
commuting.
The development of interurban public
transport and the multimodal system will
create the necessary conditions for reducing
traffic density and environmental pollution.
The rapid mobility system to and from the
regional urban centres is based on the
creation of efficient transport lines, with
clear urban and interurban stations that
enable exchanges between different means of
transport through multimodal “hubs”.
The interconnection of urban centres will
be strengthened through the integration of
different modes of public transport, based on
railway mobility supported by bus lines and
multimodal stations. To achieve this goal, the
municipalities of the region should encourage:
• The development of compact and efficient
urban centres served by public transport
systems, with high connection capacities
between urban poles and entry gates,
supported by parking areas to cope with
extraurban flows.
• The integration of all systems and services
in the transport network, and support
with public transport the areas of tourism,
employment, education and services.
• The improvement of options and
diversification of mobility choices in order
to reduce the use of private vehicles for
commuting.
