Best Duurzaam is a cooperation that aims to facilitate a transition to a sustainable living at a local level. However, it is missing an overall vision. Additionally, Best Duurzaam would like to have a closer collaboration with the local municipality. Roadmapping is a planning tool used for framing a vision shared by project participants. It aids in communicating the dynamic relations between group's ideas and accessible resources. A roadmap makes a project approach more specific in both contents and time. The goal of this study was to investigate how roadmapping could help in solving communication issues. Researchers used roadmapping to understand the issues, to explore solutions and to improve communication. The research was done at municipality level to study the tool's effectiveness in the context of local sustainability transition. The research result suggests that the roadmap is a valuable tool for communication and sharing ideas among stakeholders.
