EIT Urban Mobility supports European coalition for shared automated public transport
The French General Directorate for Infrastructure, Transport and Mobility, together with Ruter, the public transport authority for Oslo and Akershus counties in Norway, have initiated the formation of a strategic European coalition of local authorities for the deployment of automated road transport services. As a first step, they co-hosted the seminar “European coalition of transport […]
EIT Urban Mobility and ALICE forge strategic partnership to accelerate urban logistics innovation
A common vision for urban transformation EIT Urban Mobility and the Alliance for Logistics Innovation through Collaboration in Europe (ALICE) have formalised their collaboration through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), marking a milestone in their shared mission to drive forward innovation in urban logistics and sustainable mobility across Europe. Adriana Diaz, Innovation Director at EIT […]
Advancing automated public transport: human-machine interaction for safer urban mobility
The future of public transport is increasingly leaning towards automation, addressing issues such as driver shortages, road safety, congestion, and carbon emissions. However, successful deployment requires seamless interaction between automated buses and other road users, such as cars, motorcycles, bicycles, and pedestrians. The Human Machine Interaction for Automated Public Transport Buses (InterAct) project, led by […]

“Connected bike data”: unlocking cycling insights for more sustainable cities
The rapid rise of e-bikes presents an opportunity to enhance urban mobility. However, unlike the automotive sector, the cycling industry lacks real-time, connected data insights. The Spinovate project, led by See.Sense, aims to address this gap by leveraging AI-powered sensor technology to create a fully connected cycling ecosystem. This initiative will generate valuable data on […]
Connected vehicle data for traffic optimisation and public transport prioritisation
Efficient urban mobility is essential for modern cities, but it remains a significant challenge. WISP, an AI-driven traffic management solution, aims to tackle this issue by optimising traffic lights without requiring additional hardware. This innovative system leverages real-time data from connected vehicles to improve traffic flow, reduce waiting times, and cut emissions. Costly and inefficient […]
Minimising human errors in public transport: Predictive fatigue monitoring for higher passenger safety
In 2024, close to 20,000 road fatalities occurred across Europe. Europe’s long-term road safety goal, ‘Vision Zero’ aims to have zero fatalities in road transport by 2050. Technological advances, including connectivity and automation, present new opportunities to reduce the role of human errors. The role of fatigue in human errors on our roads, remains a […]
