C-ITS Explained The Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) project is a crucial initiative in the European Union’s strategy to modernize its transportation systems, employing advanced technology for enhanced safety, efficiency, and environmental sustainability in road transport. Launched as part of the European Commission’s Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) Directive in 2010, C-ITS has been a cornerstone
C-Roads Explained: The cooperative roads project The C-ROADS project, standing for “Cooperative Roads,” is a pivotal initiative in the European Union’s agenda to implement Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS). This project, which began in 2016, represents a collective effort involving multiple EU Member States. It aims to develop and test C-ITS services that can operate across borders,
The rise of Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) has the potential to revolutionize urban transportation, offering a more convenient, efficient, and sustainable way for people to get around. MaaS is a concept that integrates various modes of transportation, such as public transport, bicycles, and ride-hailing services, into a single platform, allowing users to seamlessly plan, book, and pay for their journeys.

The US EV policy, focused on electric vehicles, lacks consideration for public transportation. Data shows public transit is crucial for emissions reduction and urban sustainability, yet US policy neglects it and cuts funding. Real-world examples like Norway and China highlight the limitations of EV-only approaches. A comprehensive strategy should prioritize expanding, improving, and making public transportation accessible.
