Stakeholder scenarios

Multimodal travel made easyThe sustainable carCollective transport 2.0Trucks and the cityTraffic & infrastructure management

in the cloud

Multimodal traveller

Request itinerary from “personal travel assistant agent” Journey elements include car, public transport, taxi,

car/bicycle sharing, ride sharing, walking + linked services parking, ticketing, payment

Itinerary “maintained” in real time monitoring links for any changes or problems

Adjust itinerary and find alternatives when problems change mode, vehicle, route; new time, ticket, reservation...

Mostly automatic + always real-time

Sustainable car

Driver can book a “virtual slot” offering a more reliable and efficient journey Recommended departure time & route Vehicle speed profile synchronised with traffic lights Minimised delay, fuel consumption & emissions

Real-time ride sharing instantly matches trip offers with requests Social network of known & trusted travel partners

Route guidance assisted by personalised recommendation from traffic centre

Collective transport 2.0

Passengers’ journey plan (time, destination, preferences) sent anonymously to the operator

Service (e.g. route, time, type of vehicle) adapted to meet real-time actual demand

Demand-responsive services, taxi sharing Internet services linking different modes at transfer

interchanges Indoor navigation in stations, underground, centres etc. Single virtual ticket covering all journey legs, automatic

payment

Trucks and the city

Consignments and vehicle capacity matched by an Internet market-place

Authorised truck journeys get priority at traffic lights Drivers request parking and loading spaces, automatically

synchronised with real vehicle needs Automatic notification of truck routes, green zones,

weight, access and environmental restrictions Truck routing and logistics supply chain integrated with

traffic management system

Traffic management in the cloud

Cloud hosting of traffic signal control, sector and city strategic traffic management exchange and sharing of vehicle-sourced data traffic centre-based information and guidance available

Traffic managers know in real time where traffic intends to go, where it is currently, and if there are any problems and incidents in the network

Traffic centre shares incident management plans with vehicles interactive route guidance balances flows of “subscribing”

drivers, reduces overall delay

Instant mobility for smart cities

Self-sensing road, traffic and transport networks create & use their own intelligence

Transport management will cooperate with users, adapt to demand and optimise supply

New business connections = new business models Open community of users, industry and operators Users will change behaviour, choosing better alternatives BUT: Mobile operators may “leapfrog” conventional

solutions with smart services on smart devices!
