CODECS C-ITS City Pool workshop

The final workshop of the CODECS C-ITS City Pool will take place in Dublin City Council on 22 March 2018 in order to involve city representatives and discuss the level of deployment of C-ITS (Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems)  and the benefits for transport authorities, in addition to the role they could play in the future.

Sessions will cover topics such as how C-ITS can support traffic management, what is the added value of C-ITS over existing ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems), are cities willing to pay for it, how can C-ITS strengthen urban freight and public transport.

Public consultation for Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS)

DG MOVE, the Commission department responsible for mobility and transport, recently published aconsultation for C-ITS which –will be open till 5 January 2018.

Today, vehicles are connected devices with plenty of applications (journey planners, travel information services, automatic 112 calls, advanced cruise control etc.) and in the near future they may interact with each other and with traffic managers.

Intelligent Transport: Guidance towards cooperative, connected and automated mobility in the EU

Following an invitation of the European Commission, industry representatives and public authorities have agreed on a further developed shared vision on the interoperable deployment of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) towards cooperative, connected and automated mobility (CCAM) in the European Union.

​Today's report follows on from the C-ITS Platform Phase I report from January 2016 and addresses the common technical and legal framework necessary for the deployment of C-ITS and also takes the needs and possibilities of higher levels of automation into consideration. 

​The outcomes of the second phase of the C-ITS platform also form an essential input for the ongoing preparation of specifications for the provision of cooperative intelligent transport systems.

Cooperative ITS and cities

Cities perspective on Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) and their readiness for urban C-ITS are under discussion by CIMEC project and EC representatives in order to conclude to what needs to be done to make this happen. CIMEC project (Cooperative ITS for Mobility in European Cities) shares the main findings of the project funded by Horizon 2020 during an event planned on 18th of May in Brussels.

Conference participants will learn about the views and requirements of cities regarding C-ITS, the current state of the supplier market and where deployment in cities can happen which is beneficial to, and minimises risk, to city authorities.

This event will also provide an opportunity to learn about national programmes and plans for cities to move towards C-ITS deployment as well as European activities in this area.

Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (C-ITS) – The EU funds pilot projects of 1,3M€

The Platform for the Deployment of C-ITS in the European Union (C-ITS Platform) was launched by the Commission in July 2014. The platform provides an operational instrument for dialogue, exchange of technical knowledge and cooperation, among the Commission, public stakeholders from Member States and local/regional authorities, and private stakeholders such as vehicle manufacturers, service providers, road operators, telecomm companies, Tier 1 suppliers, etc. with the aim to build a shared vision on issues hampering coordinated deployment of C-ITS across the EU and supporting their actual deployment.
