Skip to content ARISE
Tram systems are vital for sustainable urban mobility but face challenges such as accidents, inefficiencies, and staff shortages. The ARISE project addresses these issues by showcasing OTIV.TWO, an advanced driver assistance system that enhances safety, efficiency, and reliability through real-time information and intelligent decision support, reducing delays and improving operations.
Rail transport, as the most sustainable mode of transit, emits less CO2, uses less energy than road transport, and optimally utilises public space. By improving tram safety and efficiency, ARISE promotes greater rail adoption, alleviates road congestion, and fosters greener urban environments.
The solution will undergo real-world testing through pilot demonstrations in Antwerp, Lisbon, and Zaragoza. ARISE aims to optimise public transport operations, enhance passenger satisfaction, and accelerate the transition toward smarter, safer, and more sustainable city mobility systems.

ARISE addresses tram inefficiencies, accidents, and staff shortages. Trams emit nine times less CO2 than cars, but urban accidents are 30 times higher, requiring innovative safety solutions.
ARISE enhances tram safety and efficiency through an AI-powered Advanced Driver Assistance System, reducing accidents, delays, and operational challenges in complex urban environments.
ARISE aims to reduce tram accidents by 20%, improve efficiency by 5%, and promote sustainable urban mobility, enhancing safety, reliability, and passenger satisfaction.
