European Green Deal: Engaging in Sustainable Urban Mobility
The upcoming European Green Deal will no doubt push forward a sustainable mobility agenda encouraging authorities, employers and service providers to offer sustainable mobility alternatives and entice commuters to use them for their daily commute.
The Green Deal will force us to question the way we live. As a result many cities are currently reallocating public space to active mobility, changing parking policies and offering financial incentives to encourage micro-mobility, sustainable collective transport, pedestrianize streets and create temporary bike lanes or broaden existing bike lanes.
But how do we stay on track in this sustainability transition and what is required to get things started? During this Intertraffic On Air episode various experts will explain what must be done to maintain the set course while ensuring mobility access for everyone.
Confirmed panellists:
Lucas Harms, MD of Dutch Cycling Embassy
Ronald Jorna, project manager bicycles and ITS, Province of Overijssel
Peter Kuhn, director new ventures, MaaS Global
Pieter Litjens, general director, Crow
Episode 6 | 14:00 - 16:00
Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility: Reaping the benefits of connectivity
The pandemic brought with it the necessary challenges and adjustments for Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) research and Proof of Concepts, but overall smart mobility has undergone spectacular changes with the introduction and widespread use of connected vehicle and traffic technology.
The many interventions on the physical and digital road network have paved the way for a gradual move from human driving to self-driving allowing vehicles, roadways, travellers, and traffic management centres to all communicate with one another in real time.
The role of the recently founded CCAM association is to speed up further European CCAM developments and aims to create a user-centred and inclusive mobility system, increasing road safety while reducing congestion and emission footprint.
During this Intertraffic On Air episode various CCAM experts will share their ideas on reaping the CCAM benefits and deploy smart technology to connect infrastructure, vehicles and road users.
Confirmed panellists:
Tom Alkim, policy officer, connected & automated driving, DG RTD (Research & Innovation), European Commission
George de Boer, global director marketing, TomTom Automotive
Peter Morsink, leading professional smart mobility and road safety, Royal Haskoning DHV
Marinda Hall will moderate both sessions.
