The introduction of the Automated Vehicles Bill by the UK Parliament in February 2024 marks a pivotal moment for local authorities and communities across the country. This Bill is not just about bringing automated vehicles onto our roads; it's about reimagining our urban landscapes, enhancing road safety, and pushing the boundaries of digital infrastructure. There is an urgency for all local authorities —rural and urban alike—to embrace technological advancements and future-proof their infrastructure. 🚦 From the necessity of 5G and full fibre networks to the undeniable benefits of connected traffic systems, the bill sets forth a comprehensive framework that demands immediate action and collaboration among local authorities. It's a call to action that cannot be ignored. But what does this mean for local authorities? How can they navigate the challenges and opportunities presented by this transformative legislation? 🔍 Our latest article, unpacks the Automated Vehicles Bill's implications and explores the proactive steps local authorities must take to ensure their communities remain competitive, safe, and efficient in the era of automated vehicles. This is more than just policy; it's the roadmap to a smarter, safer, and more connected future. #AutomatedVehiclesBill #SmartCities #LocalAuthorities #DigitalTransformation #TransportInnovation #PublicSafety #5G #V2I #V2V #FutureOfTransport

https://lnkd.in/evTM6cme The highways and transport solutions provider Clearview Intelligence has used its slot at the Transport Technology Forum conference to discuss how transport technology over the last half-century has made the country’s roads safer, greener and smarter.

🤖 Digitalisation is changing rail for the better 🤖 Over half of all journeys on London’s Northern City Line now operate using digital signalling, improving customer journeys with more consistent and reliable journeys. Adopting digital technologies to monitor key #rail assets, like #switches and #crossings, can help to transform customer journeys and operators’ maintenance processes. Thanks to our remote condition monitoring solution, SWIX, combined with our data-driven digital platform, asset owners get real-time asset health data, 24/7, 365 days a year. #Digitalisation can transform your maintenance and asset monitoring to make it safer, reduce your costs, and allow you to perform preventative, not just reactive, maintenance. To start digitising your #assetmonitoring, get in touch via your favourite digital medium. https://bit.ly/4c8rvzD

Microtransit won’t reach its full potential in isolation, but rather as supportive piece of an integrated #transit network. This approach allows transit agencies to boost ridership from areas that couldn’t be well-served by traditional buses alone. And it helps riders make full use of regional transit systems by encouraging intermodal transfers between #microtransit and bus/train service. We at Via have perfected this model across the US and have the results to show for it! Watch our latest 10 minute masterclass with Terence McPherson, and see how transit agencies are using multimodal planning techniques to build fully integrated transit networks.

It’s great to see our Siemens Mobility Digital Station and Power Manager technology featured in Modern Railways magazine.   Stations are such an important part of the passenger experience and digitalisation can help in so many ways including smart crowd management, more informed decision making and better resource management.   That’s why DSPM is being used in stations with high volumes of passengers for example on the Elizabeth line.   Find out more in this article. #RailwayTransformation #TransformTheEveryday #BuiltInBritain

The Intelligent Rail Transit(IRT). Have you seen or heard about a train that moves on the road without rail tracks? The IRT operates on virtual tracks marked on the road using advanced sensors and navigation technology for guidance. It's an ideal solution for urban areas where constructing regular tracks is impractical or costly. The ART can accommodate large numbers of passengers yet it retains the ability to move easily in urban areas like a bus. Buckle up and enjoy the ride on a trackless train. IRT in China.

Digitalisation is the key to helping operators handle busier stations. Our @siemensmobility Digital Station and Power Manager (DSPM) technology is helping the rail industry to adapt to the changing passenger landscape. The railway is seeing a growth in leisure travel and a decline in commuter journeys, particularly on some days of the week. This brings complexity as more passengers may be unfamiliar with the stations they’re travelling through, or have more complex needs. To tackle this, DSPM is helping operators adapt and run more passenger-friendly stations while prioritising efficiency in operations. To find out how, read this article in May’s Modern Railway magazine. #Digitalisation #RailwayTransformation #TransformTheEveryday #BuiltInBritain
