LOCAL workshops SERIES: the south holland 3rd case study workshop

The SYNCHROMODE project is drawing to a close! Discover insights from the latest local stakeholder workshops across our case study locations.

In South Holland, the third stakeholder workshop took place physically on 20 March 2026. Organised by MAPtm, it brought together traffic authorities, public transport operators, and tech providers to explore key findings from the case study.

The South Holland case study focuses on 3 recurring problematic situations in terms of traffic management: for large scale infrastructure works; in seasonal touristic areas (Keukenhof) and at the beach.

workshop objectives and setup

The main objectives of this workshop were to disseminate the work of the Dutch case study as part of SYNCHROMODE, to present the results and performed actions, and the different modules developed during the project.

The session was composed of two interactive parts:

1. Project performance and evaluation
   Assessment of how the project performed, including its results and their usability. A SWOT analysis was conducted to identify key strengths, weaknesses, challenges, and opportunities.
2. Scaling and future implementation
   Collection of insights on how to further scale the project outcomes. This included identifying remaining requirements for implementation, developing an “impact and usage” table, and determining which results could be replicated, expanded, or applied in new contexts.

data sharing, toolbox integration and user experience

Discussions focused on the tools used, potential improvements to increase adoption, and the nature of the data ecosystem. Key challenges were identified, including data availability issues, interoperability gaps, privacy and security concerns, and institutional resistance. These aspects were analysed across the Keukenhof, beach, and roadworks planning use cases.

results, replicbility and recommendations

Further discussions addressed project results, their replicability, and potential applications, as well as their quantitative and qualitative impacts and benefits. This led into defining requirements and formulating policy recommendations.
