Last paper from acedmy time is published! 🌟 Our latest paper introduces the concept of "total social cost" to evaluate the impact of various transit signal priority systems on society, cities, and people. 🚌💰🌲 Our research focused on a signal priority system prioritizing buses with higher passenger capacity, effectively reducing delays and negative impacts on the environment. The results, tested in two adjacent intersections in Helsinki, highlight the importance of considering total social cost in transportation policies. A big shoutout to my former colleague and friend of almost 15 years, Shaghayegh (Shaya) Vosough, and my PhD supervisor Claudio Roncoli, for their invaluable contributions and support. 🙌 The paper is open access, so feel free to take a look. I'd be happy to discuss it further if you're interested! #Research #TransitSignalPriority #Engineering #SocialImpact

Introducing this year's Future Transport Visions Group research themes: 🌱 Decarbonisation and Sustainable Transport 🤝 Engagement and Behaviour Change 💻 Modelling and Appraisal Processes 💡 Future Transport Modes and Technologies 🚦 Intelligent Transport Systems ❓ Emerging Trends (Other) We wanted to give this year's initiative some more structure and provide people with some broad themes to pitch ideas for. The themes are linked to expertise within our committee and broad transport topics affecting the industry; but also include a "wildcard" category for those that don't quite fit any theme. We will group all entries into these themes as part of organising our collaboration workshops which will be the forum for turning individual ideas into group projects. Are these jolting any ideas?

Easy peasy 🍋 squeaky. My network may be woefully light on #youngprofessionals but 🤞 you can help spread the word about this outstanding career development opportunity I keep highlighting. How easy? 100 word proposal. That easy! PLUS Two interesting options to get involved. Joint projects and 'go solo' > if you don’t have a proposal but would be interested in taking part in a group activity aligned to your sector. #cpd #justdoit

I love the mobile air quality monitoring solution from Smart Futures Lab's Ecosystem Informatics Inc. It paints a broader picture of local conditions for significantly less cost than stationary monitors that can compliment a well-rounded strategy! #smartcities #airquality #airpollution #IoT

New Event! Transport in Intelligent Environments – The end of the tram as we know it?  25th April, 14.00-15.00 GMT   Session description:  In this webinar we will discuss how transport is being reconfigured by emerging technologies and intelligent environments. Bus Rapid Transit and Trackless Trams are interrogated in the context of transitions to Net Zero, attending to the technical and institutional challenges associated with their introduction. The webinar is part of a series exploring different facets of intelligent environments through the lens of “Intelligent Environments – Advanced Systems for a Healthy Planet” (Droege, 2023) and is intended to encourage debate of emerging issues and set the agenda for the next edition of the book.   Speakers:   ·      Peter Droege, Director of the Liechtenstein Institute for Strategic Development. ·      Peter Newman, Professor of Sustainability at Curtin University , AO Order of Australia. ·      James Warren,  Senior lecturer in the School of Engineering and Innovation.   Target audience:  Researchers and practitioners with an interest in transport, intelligent environments and the smart and sustainable built environment.    Agenda:   14:00- Introduction – Transport in Intelligent Environments, Peter Droge.   14:05- Net Zero Corridors as the Basis of Net Zero Cities In this talk, Peter Newman will outline the new technology of Trackless Trams and discuss their potential to enable transport GHG reductions as well as power GHG reductions. This talk will draw on case studies from various Net Zero Precincts research projects across Australia.   14:25 - Looking back at Havana’s Bus Rapid Transit System Ten years have passed since Havana’s bus rapid transit system was proposed, designed, and then modelled. In this talk James will take a look backwards to see how, and if, the system has progressed and what lessons have been learned. The talk also looks at some of the more recent developments that have shaped the city transport system since 2014 and how these factors feed into the overall bus network as one of the key forms of transport.   14:45 – Discussion, Q&A Here is the link

Introducing SERRP VIII: Shaping Europe’s Future Transport Infrastructure! 🌍 We're thrilled to unveil FEHRL’s 8th Strategic European Road and cross-modal Research and Implementation Plan (SERRP VIII). Covering 2025-2027, SERRP VIII sets a transformative agenda to create sustainable, resilient, and equitable transport infrastructure across Europe. Here’s a quick look at the three core priorities: 🏗 Built Environment: Advancing the integration of digital twins, sensors, and data to improve infrastructure resilience, reduce costs, and enhance resource efficiency. 🌿 Natural Environment: Promoting green infrastructure and biodiversity initiatives that reduce carbon emissions, minimize environmental impact, and adapt to climate change. 👥 Social Environment: Ensuring safe, accessible, and equitable mobility for all by improving road safety, promoting health, and addressing transport equity. 💼 Why it Matters: SERRP VIII is more than just a research agenda; it’s a blueprint for a future where transport infrastructure supports sustainable growth, protects our planet, and improves the quality of life for all citizens. 🔗 Collaborate with Us: FEHRL invites researchers, policymakers, and industry partners to join us in turning these priorities into actionable projects. Together, let’s build a transport network that works for everyone, everywhere. #SERRPVIII #SustainableTransport #Infrastructure #FEHRL #BuiltEnvironment #NaturalEnvironment #SocialEnvironment #Innovation #Mobility #ClimateAction

Founded in Neath in 2017 with a #smartcity vision, Vortex build #environmental #sensor networks and #datasolutions to support #decarbonisation initiatives. Part of Marston Holdings since early 2022, they currently operate the largest #airqualitymonitoring network in Europe. At EMISSIONS & AIR QUALITY Smart Class 2024, we were delighted to welcome back Nicholas Ruxton-Boyle (the Director of Environment at Marston Holdings and Vortex) to delve into the urgent challenge of #airpollution and examine the current landscape of #policies to tackle this critical issue. Nick highlighted the power of harnessing localised air #pollutiondata with innovative #highway projects designed to enhance both #airquality and #roadsafety. By illuminating the unseen hazards to our #health and #environment, his presentation revealed actionable opportunities for change fuelled by proven #datadriven success stories. Following the innovator presentations and keynotes, Vortex’s #AI and Data Scientist James Toop accompanied Nick for deeper dive roundtable discussions with all delegates in attendance.
