IMPROVING THE SAFETY AND MOBILITY OF VULNERABLE ROAD USERS THROUGH ITS APPLICATIONS (VRUITS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2016,
In the past, Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) success has been achieved primarily though equipment of the vehicle and infrastructure. The focus of these ITS has been on clean, safe and efficient mobility for vehicles.The Vulnerable Road User (VRU) has reaped fewer benefits of the ITS developments. While some projects have considered VRUs from a safety viewpoint, they often aimed to avoid or mit ...

Cooperative Mobility Systems and Services for Energy Efficiency (eCoMove)
Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 2014,
The eCoMove project will create an integrated solution for road transport energy efficiency by developing systems and tools to help drivers sustainably eliminate unnecessary fuel consumption (and thus CO2 emissions), and to help road operators manage traffic in the most energy-efficient way. By applying this combination of cooperative systems using vehicle-infrastructure communication, the project ...

ECOSTAND - Coordination Action for creating a common assessment methodology and joint research agenda with Japan and the USA on ITS applications focusing on energy efficiency and CO2 reduction (ECOSTAND)
Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
The overall objectives of ECOSTAND are to provide the necessary support to permit the agreement on a common methodology for assessing the effects of ITS on energy consumption and CO2 emissions. This will enable future ITS investment and policy decisions to be taken on the basis of sound and detailed knowledge of their environmental impacts. ECOSTAND favours a continuous dialogue between the EU, Ja ...

Urban Freight Energy Efficiency Pilot (FREILOT)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Transportation of goods is a key enabler for European economy to maintain its competitiveness. However, the same transportation brings other, less positive effects, such as CO2 emissions, contributing to the global gas house effect. Therefore, reduction of fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and emissions of other pollutants is one of the biggest challenges for the road transport today.The specific en ...

An Integrated Wireless and Traffic Platform for Real-Time Road Traffic Management Solutions (iTETRIS)
Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jan 31, 2011,
Wireless vehicular cooperative systems have been identified as an attractive solution to improve road traffic management, thereby contributing to the European goal of safer, cleaner, and more efficient and sustainable traffic solutions. The use of V2V and V2I communication technologies can not only help reducing road fatalities but also a more efficient and adaptive traffic management that contrib ...
