Earlier this year the Italian city of Genoa hit the headlines thanks to the deployment of a Mobility as a Service (MaaS) network that was not only ticketless, but didn’t even require users to take their phones out of their pockets. But how was it done? Intertraffic World’s Paige Smith talks exclusively to the experts involved, and uncovers the challenges they faced and solutions that were deployed

INSIDE STORY: Frictionless MaaS – how was it done?

Connected vehicle data has uses way beyond collision avoidance and weather reports – it’s creating a dynamic picture of traffic flows that can be used to verify the effectiveness almost any kind of traffic management system.

Harnessing the power of connected vehicle data

Nick Harris, CEO of the UK’s National Highways, talks carbon emissions, smart motorway safety and the future of England’s Strategic Road Network.

Vision Zero and Net Zero – can it be done?

The pandemic has put pressure on kerb space like never before, with more delivery drivers servicing the e-commerce boom, more active travel options requiring docking spaces, outdoor seating and pedestrianisation seeing a surge in popularity, and private car-use, with associated parking needs, on the rise. Enter a new era of smart kerb management – and with it the tools to provide a nudge toward vehicle electrification.

One of the promises of connected vehicle data is that it could do away with the need for any other type of road sensor. That dream has not yet been realised, but US researcher Hesham A Rakha has been investigating machine learning algorithms that could one day help to do just that.

Connected vehicle Q&A

Encouraging EV adoption is a cornerstone of government plans to decarbonize, but such vehicles are only really feasible for those with driveways or access to limited public charge-points. But now, London’s Lambeth Council is building a blueprint for extending the electric revolution to underserved communities in London and beyond.

EV charging for all

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) aims to take stress out of multimodal travel, thereby reducing private car use and increasing transit ridership. Although the idea has been around for 15 years, it’s never really caught on. But now the Dutch are determined to make it happen, sparking an exciting competition among providers.

Advanced 5G networks herald a new era of vehicle connectivity, but border crossings could create coverage blackspots where safety is compromised – a particular problem in urban settings and for long-distance platooning. This is why new EU research projects are looking to ensure seamless network handovers.

Cross-border vehicle connectivity and 5G

Building digital twins of road infrastructure has the potential to greatly assist asset management operations as well as enable new construction projects to be more efficient than ever before and even enable more sophisticated traffic modelling, saving time and money and lowering emissions across entire road networks.
