Abstract
Mobility must be intelligent, safe, fair, and adapted to the environment to be sustainable. It must improve the quality of citizen’s life by safeguarding human health and natural ecosystems. Sustainable mobility must optimize resource consumption and public spaces, facilitate accessibility, promote economic dynamism, respect environmental integrity and commit the social responsibility of individuals, companies, and society. Thus, sustainable mobility contributes to the development and responds to the travel demands of present generations without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
This article presents research results to set up a sustainable mobility model for Fez, a Morrocan booming city. It offers a conceptual approach to simulate the trend in mobility and allows us to measure the positive impact of the corrections made. A supply analysis and the need for trips in a reference situation allows formalizing realistic objectives. Then, a sustainable mobility model prevents social and environmental costs from being higher than the services provided by the transport systems of this city.

The mobility plan must define the guiding actions to consolidate a city model, balancing productive system/economic activity/urbanization/territorial mobility needs. Starting from environmental, social, and economic sustainability principles [6]. The ultimate goal is to have a more human, inclusive, healthy, dynamic and resilient city.
