Using innovative technology, RideSafeUM brings micromobility safety benefits to users, public authorities, shared service operators […]
IMMENSE
IMMENSE proposes the creation of a Transport Demand Management (TDM) tool which is able to dynamically influence traffic demand on road and parking ecosystems depending on congestion levels. By using a dynamic rate system with game design elements or “gamification” (such as automatically rewarding users with points for reducing travel time along congested routes if […]
DIGITALBUS
Whilst urban centres enjoy an effective and seamless multimodal public transport system, for many peri-urban and rural areas public transport bus services remain the key form of transport providing mobility and connection to essential services such as education, employment, healthcare, fresh food and leisure – and transport hubs. In such areas with low population density, […]
IMAGINEXT
While urbanisation and populations in urban areas increase, decarbonising cities becomes a harder challenge. In this context, as an unprecedented amount of urban traffic pollutants are generated in cities, IMAGINEXT validates a Software as a Service (SaaS) solution that utilises artificial intelligence (AI) to learn how specific mobility strategies and sustainable transport measures impact on […]
EV Charging From Lampposts
EV Charging From Lampposts will deploy and test electric-vehicle (EV) charging stations developed by the start-up SimpleCharge. These charging stations can be easily integrated into the infrastructure of street lampposts. The charging solution will be tested in several cities in Europe, focusing on providing electric vehicle charging solutions in residential areas where there are few […]
NEDAM
E-bikes over emerged as a comprehensive transport option to replace more motorised forms of transport because they are speedier and easier to ride than conventional bikes. However, it is not always the most comfortable or convenient option; for instance, standard e-bikes may not be the most suitable option for employee’s movement during working hours when […]
REACTIVITY
Globally, cities are grappling with growing challenges tied to air and noise pollution, as well as traffic congestion and accidents. Concurrently, a rising number of citizens are suffering from chronic illnessesassociated with unhealthy lifestyles. In this context, local authorities need to support the uptake of intermodal active mobility and need technological tools to simplify the […]
IMPACTS
Public transport is a crucial aspect of urban mobility, allowing people to commute, socialise, and explore their cities safely and cost-effectively. However, overcrowding, limited digitalisation, outdated reporting mechanisms and decreased perceived safety due to the pandemic, have discouraged its use. This has resulted in decreased use of public transport and missed opportunities for multimodal mobility, […]
sCOOL2walk
sCOOL2walk aims to get families walking to school. The project matches people together to share their walk to and from school. The benefits are many. Traffic congestion and pollution around schools is reduced and fewer vehicles also means safer streets. Families become more active and children gain a greater feeling of independence and awareness of […]
TACTIC
TACTIC is creating an innovative solution that brings economic, environmental and social value to the last-mile logistics business, involving different stakeholders in the local commerce logistics chain. The solution consists of connecting local commerce, green logistics services and the end user through the development and integration of the following services and products:• e-vehicle sharing app: […]
Coding the Curbs
The project will co-create with carriers, cities and citizens, offering clear incentives and engagement. The project will pilot an innovative scalable platform for bookable loading zones. Pricing, incentives and enforcement will directly result in a better use of loading zones, more efficient logistics, including a 20% reduction in kilometres driven and an incentive for clean […]
FOLLOW
Walkable cities are safe, healthy, and friendly. Although urban planning has a key role in shaping citizens’ mobility patterns and behaviour, some tools can aid with the challenge of encouraging people to walk. FOLLOW aims to test a route planner that encourages walking by minimising the negative effects that a lack of safety and accessibility […]
SEVES
The development of transport electrification means the unsustainable production of expensive batteries including the high consumption of raw materials and, at the end of the life of battery electric vehicles (BEV), their energy-intensive recycling. Sustainable electrified urban transport requires the provision of peak charging performance for shorter charging times. Extending battery life is offered as […]
H2GO
While electric battery vehicles are becoming a popular alternative to motorised vehicles, they still face some challenges in terms of range, cost, and limited charging infrastructure in some cities. Hydrogen fuel cell batteries could help to tackle these challenges. A consortia comprised of industry, local government and research partners will explore their use in urban light-duty electric […]
Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) retrofit solutions for cities and regions
Speeding is the major cause of traffic accidents. As of this year, new vehicles have to be equipped with Intelligent Speed Assistance (ISA) systems that make sure that a vehicle does not exceed the legal speed limit. From 2024, this regulation will extend to all new vehicles imported into the EU region. As vehicles have […]
Cleanergy 4 Micromobility
The rise of shared e-scooters in cities reduces car usage and helps achieve sustainable mobility goals but challenges related to shared public space between pedestrians, cyclists and micromobility users, operating costs, and ensuring clean sources of energy persist. To this end, Cleanergy will develop a dock for e-scooters that can be easily replicated and placed […]
ECOSWAP
To help reduce greenhouse gas emissions, as well as air and noise pollution, the ECOSWAP project is promoting the uptake of e-motorbikes by offering a battery swapping system to existing and new motorbike riders. Instead of having to pay for the cost of the battery, the customer can choose to participate in the scheme to […]
Urban Mobile Charging (UMC)
By 2030, 33 million electrical vehicle owners in Europe will need efficient charging. UMC is creating an on-demand electric vehicle charging service called NIMBEE which will operate in Žilina, Slovakia; Riga, Latvia, and Braunschweig, Germany. Instead of drivers needing to locate a charging station, an autonomous battery-operated charging robot will go to them. Drivers will […]
IPA2X
The IPA2X project is helping to achieve zero accidents and decrease fatalities in urban areas. It will improve pedestrian safety by implementing a service of autonomous robots to assist pedestrians cross streets, notify nearby vehicles of the pedestrians’ movements, and identify obstacles on footpaths, bike paths and roads that may hinder pedestrian movements. In particular, the […]
LivingLAPT
Cities need help to reduce emissions, ensure the safety and mobility of cyclists and pedestrians, and improve quality of life for citizens. Autonomous bus shuttles can be a game changer for cities to address many of these challenges. However, current solutions lack a coordinated regulatory safety framework among European cities. Low public trust and acceptance of […]
FlexCurb
FlexCurb is a set of application programme interfaces (APIs) that allow creation of a digital inventory of a city’s curb regulations, so they can visualise and analyse the patterns of curb allocation and use, as well as to adapt and communicate curb regulations. The FlexCurb package is composed of two products targeting two types of end users. The […]
