Cities are responsible for about 70% of all greenhouse gas emissions and road transportation accounts for about a quarter of those emissions. Furthermore, hours wasted in traffic congestion costs Europe €110 billion per year. These costs, in addition the air pollution-related health issues, add up to several hundred billion euros per year. And most importantly, […]

Predicting risk to save lives: new approaches to urban road safety

Pedestrians crossing road intersection

Urban streets are becoming increasingly complex and are having significant impacts on road safety. Growing population density, a rise in cycling and micromobility, and continued reliance on private vehicles are intensifying competition for limited road space. This complexity has disproportionately affected vulnerable road users (VRUs). VRUs, including pedestrians, cyclists and micromobility users, represent 70% of […]

Mastering mobility after dark 

Across Europe, millions of people travel after dark: commuting from late shifts, cycling home, walking through neighbourhoods or using scooters to bridge their last mile. In winter, when darkness falls early but daily life continues, people still need to get to and from work, education and essential services, often in conditions that make navigating streets and public space more […]

The power of connected vehicle data: Compass IoT transforming traffic management and road safety

Compass IoT, a digital infrastructure and traffic analytics company, is piloting their Road Intelligence platform and bespoke dashboards based on connected vehicle data with Transport for London (TfL) as part of the Road Intelligence for London Mobility (RILM) project. The EIT Urban Mobility co-funded project aims to empower TfL to make data-driven decisions that support the Mayor’s Transport Strategy to improve the experience of how Londoners live and travel around the city.   As cities around […]

Mastering mobility with car-free days 

Car-free days are deliberately scheduled interruptions of private motor traffic, typically lasting for a full day. During these events, streets or entire districts are cleared of cars and reclaimed for walking, cycling, public transport and community life.   The result is an immediate transformation: quieter streets, cleaner air and space for people to enjoy, rather than […]
