Nova Gorica – lessons so far
BARRIERS• difficulties with coordination body• limited cooperation• language barriers• different planning systems and cultures• PT is a main topic, though limited responsibilites

Nova Gorica – lessons so far
Joint/regional SUMP is a better solution for: • regions with polycentric structure of the region• smaller cities with capacity problems • strong influence from higher levels of governance

Conclusions
FUTURE PLANS• National SUMP platform• national SUMP audit scheme• SUMP implementation
25
Conclusions
GENERAL• SUMP works well on all scales• initial ownership is crucial• guidelines are only a framework• higher level support boosts the take up• lack of knowledge and expertise• unclear legal status of SUMPs• involvement from the national level
26
Conclusions
SMALLER CITIES • inclusive and productive SUMPs• no strategic mobility planning• changes in planning practice• limited capacities • influence from higher levels• regional SUMPs as solution
