Automated road transport systems (ARTS) in European cities

Daniele StamCTL – Centre for Transport and Logistics of the University of Rome

You know cars can drive themselves now?

Maybe not everywhere– they need to know the environment a priori– and it might need to be slightly adapted

But yes they canWhich gives transport systems the chance they always missed: high quality last mileIt could be possible through the Automated Road Transport Systems

Automated Road Transport Systems (ARTS)

• Fully automated systems made of:– Automated vehicles (no driver on board)– Dedicated infrastructures (not necessarily

segregated)– Control and communication systems

• Aiming at complementing and integrating mass transits

The EC project CityMobil2

10th EC project on ARTS since 200045 partners coordinated by CTL: – 12 cities (Brussels, CERN, La Rochelle, Lausanne, León,

Milano, Oristano, Reggio Calabria, San Sebastian, Sophia Antipolis, Trikala and Vantaa)

– 5 manufacturers (Induct, Movemile, Robosoft, 2GetThere, Yamaha)

Showcase

The news video of the La Rochelle demo

The main research aspects addressed by the CityMobil2 project

Legal aspects – lack of a legal framework

Wider socio-economic effects of vehicle automation

Road to implementation of real systems in cities – many cities want to be second but none wants to be first

Preliminary results from the demos: passengers travelled

Oristano: 3000

La Rochelle: more than 15000

Lausanne: 5000 in growing

Preliminary results from Oristano: user acceptance

Few questions I leave you with

• Can automated vehicles provide last-mile high quality service?

• How can they complement the mass transit?

• How to avoid congestion and conflicts with the public transport?
