PURPOSE OF DOCUMENT This document gives some useful information on the structure and development of the third SUNRISE technical course. It is based on the discussions both during the project meetings and during the internal sessions and activities carried out by the Terrassa team. It aims to present the results and conclusions of the Sunrise demonstration projects and feasibility study. This version will circulate across the Consortium to inform on the main issues of the course. 1.1 WP2 – PROJECT METHODOLOGY AND OPERATIONAL ASPECTS “Dossier de Candidature” to the Contract with the INTERREG 3 C Authority (AUG) and the Technical Part of Starting Report (R0) on the overall SUNRISE work plan provide the main guideline for the development of SUNRISE project and for the job to be performed at site level. In particular the WP02 “Project methodology and operational aspects” is described in SUNRISE technical report (R0) as: “One of the core aims of SUNRISE project is to transfer the experiences and knowledge gained by some partners, like ATAF and Ring a Link, in design, planning and operational aspects of DRT services and systems. The expertise partners will training the other site responsible and technicians (Terrassa, Massa (CAT), Serres (AUTh)) technical responsible to understand the general needs of users (Authority and Transport Operators) in relation to DRT services implementation, covering the mobility, institutional and operational aspects and the role of ICT systems and tools. To achieve this objective three main tasks are involved in WP02: Task 2.1: to define an “investigation methodology” for setting and design a DRT services in relation to the characteristics of a specific area. The investigation methodology consists of technical procedures to investigate an area about mobility demand, transport offer, etc and to give indications on promotion activities in order to facilitate the knowledge in the users’ community in case of operational starting of a DRT services. The investigation methodology will be developed by ATAF, with the support of RAL, for what concern the DRT services in rural area and UNEW for the interrelations with the evaluation methodology. The methodology will allow to precisely define the site context approach for the study and application of DRT services according to the main characteristics of local sites (reference service model, institutional framework and constraints, operational context, impacts and performances, etc). Task 2.2: to realize three interrelated tutorial courses in order to provide: capabilities on DRT service planning; knowledge on the tools and supported ICT systems; analysis of the achieved results. These three courses will be carried out in different local site and will be targeted to specific audience identified in relation to the course objectives (mainly technicians of Consortium local site). The first course will be taken care by CAT for what concern the logistics organization (where, when, how, participants…) while ATAF will provide the course contents and technical coordination. Task 2.3: to facilitate the personnel exchange. This task allows to realise operational stages in the sites where a real DRT service is operated. The participating partners to this experience should take care of the involved personnel facilities.” The following structure of the course is in line with the objective of the WP2 and to the activities foreseen in Task 2.3 16/02/2016 106746567 4 SUNRISE − 2S0001I C2 - CDP 2. COURSE REQUIREMENTS The Course on DRT Experiences is a relevant task of WP2 (Task 2.3). On the basis of the information provided during the course the participants will be able to learn about real DRT experiences and their conclusions. The Course is addressed to the technicians such as engineers, local transport expertises of the Sunrise partners and also decision makers (political authority). The lessons will illustrate the real experience of the Sunrise partners in planning and management of DRT services in the European regions involved. 3. STRUCTURE AND CONTENTS The course consists of two sessions: 1. the first one (day one) will be divided in two different sections. The first one will be a brief introduction to DRT systems and present experiences going on in Europe. The second section will be based in the description of the experiences of some partners of Sunrise project. 2. in the second day (day two) there will be the rest of the partners’ experiences and an open debate about the lessons learnt, best results and future work at European and local level. The table shows the lessons for the first day and the planning of the second one. The speakers are just a first proposal.

MODALITIES The speakers will explain their presentation using electronic support or if necessary bright blackboard. One abstract of the different presentation could be directly provided to the participants during the course. At the end of each lesson, the participants could ask for clarification and discuss together on the main topics explained. 5. TIMING The tutorial course is foreseen in one day and a half. The lessons will start in the morning of day one at 09.30 till 17.30. The second day the debate will start at 9.30 to be concluded around at 13.00 6. PARTICIPANTS The members of Sunrise partners will participate directly to the course and/or delegate external technical local actors. 7.
