Scientific and technical content

  • Environmental impact of road freight transport
    Technologies such as eco-driving assistance, platooning, dynamic vehicle routing, and infrastructure electrification contribute to reducing the environmental impact of freight transport and a reduction of fossil energy and CO2 emission.
  • Impact on road safety
    Road safety and congestion will be improved with advanced technologies and safer or more adapted driver behaviour, such as anti-rollover and knife-jacking systems, dynamic speed control, advanced driving assistance (ADAS), vulnerable road users' detection, warnings and vehicle control intervention.
  • Compliance
    Electronic compliance systems allow road and traffic managers to give individual access permits to vehicles (IAP). These systems will support future regulation. They depend on vehicle to infrastructure integration with weigh-in-motion, global positioning systems, DSRC communication and on-board units, e-communication, etc. Improved monitoring and enforcement of heavy vehicles is becoming more advanced and challenging as the fleet diversifies.
