There are 51 countries with 912 cities that have developed Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans. Although most are entitled Sustainable Urban Mobility Plans (or SUMPs), many in the English-speaking world do not use the acronym "SUMP" as the word "sump" refers to a pit or hollow in which liquid collects, especially one in the floor of a mine or basement. Not exactly an attractive word to use. These countries therefore use terms such as "Sustainable Transport Plans" or simply "Urban Mobility Plans" and they tend not to use the EU Guidelines. These plans nevertheless do address mobility issues, do involve consultation and do develop sustainable solutions.

The following section provides an overview of the plans and approaches that are being developed in each country. Clicking on the country name (in blue) will take you to the UMP Country Profile which provides an overview of the country, a database with the names of cities with Urban Mobility Plans, whether they are metropolitan areas, their population size, the year the plan was published, links to their geographical location, links to the actual urban mobility plans as well as information on the language of plan, the planning methodology used, any support provided, the name of any consultant firm that assisted in the development of the plan and a link to the study report (if available).  It includes a map of the country and the location of the cities that have plans online.

There are 193 plans (21% of the total) that cover "Metropolitan Areas" (in some cases as Functional Urban Areas or in France as "Communities of Communes").

Most plans (235 or 26%) are available in Spanish (including Catalan and Galacian), followed by French (175 or 19%), Portuguese (151 or 17%) and English (135 or 15%).

The countries which have the most (52%) cities with Urban Mobility Plans are Spain (158 cities), Brazil (145 cities), France (97 cities) and Belgium (71 cities).
