  • Smart Transportation in China and the United States Yuming Ge, Xiaoman Liu, Libo Tang, and Darrell M
    DECEMBER 2017 Smart transportation in China and the United States Yuming Ge, Xiaoman Liu, Libo Tang, and Darrell M. West INTRODUCTION It is no surprise that countries are suffering traffic problems as their rural and suburban populations move to cities and population density increases around urban areas. As cities grow in density, we have seen vehicular congestion, poor urban planning, and insufficient highway designs. The unfortunate downsides of these trends are the loss of lives due to accidents, time and money spent commuting, and lost productivity and economic growth for the system as a whole. All these developments are problematic because transportation accounts for six to 12 percent of Gross Domestic Product in many developed countries.1 The cost of traffic congestion alone is estimated to be greater than $200 billion in four Western countries: France, Germany, the United Kingdom, and the United States.2 But the good news is that recent advancements in computing, network speed, and communications sensors make it possible to improve transportation infrastructure, traffic management, and vehicular operations. Through better infrastructure, ubiquitous connectivity, 5G (fifth generation) networks, Yuming Ge, Xiaoman Liu, and dynamic traffic signals, remote sensors, vehicle-sharing services, and autonomous vehicles, it is Libo Tang are researchers at the possible to increase automotive safety, efficiency, and operations. Connected vehicles are moving China Academy beyond crash notification and lane changing guidance to offer a variety of services related to main- of Information and Communication tenance, operations, and entertainment. 5G networks will enable a shift in cellular technology from Technology (CAICT). supporting fixed services to communication and data exchange that is machine-based.

  • Transport in the Digital Age Disruptive Trends for Smart Mobility
    Transport in the Digital Age Disruptive Trends for Smart Mobility March 2015 Contents Foreword 1 Executive summary 2 Rising demand for transport 3 Trends in digital age transport 4 User centred 6 Integrated and intelligent 8 Pricing and payments 11 Automation and safety 14 Public and private innovation 17 Looking ahead 19 About the authors 20 Endnotes 21 Foreword Change has already arrived in transport. The current wave of digital innovation, which has brought us travel planning on our smartphones and far greater access to customer information, was predicted in our 2012 Deloitte University Press publication and the pace of change is accelerating. In the last three years digital disruption has become more widespread and companies like Uber have grown to become multi-billion dollar global enterprises. It is now timely to update our research and to examine the trends that we believe will be relevant to the future of the metro, rail, road, air and automotive industries. Smart mobility strives to integrate all modes of transport to provide the vision of a seamless end to end journey experience. Technology has a major role to play as the transport sector now stands on the brink of great change, where digital innovation will go further to bring about improvements in operations, asset management and the delivery of capital programmes. As the global population in urban areas reaches four billion, our current research seeks to stimulate debate about the future transport services passengers desire and how digital innovation can support this, and provide a framework for predicting the trends that will shape the transport industry.

  • Public Transport Applications for Smartphones
    University of Eastern Finland School of Computing Master’s Thesis Public transport applications for smartphones Golam Rabbi 2nd of January 2019 ABSTRACT Public transports and their timetable are inseparable parts of the urban lifestyle. It is essential to know the public transport information to ensure the commute quality and time. This information can be fetched using a mobile phone app, which unfortunately are not available in the market. The popular public transport applications in the market are not satisfying the needs of all kinds of users, which is being reflected in their review comments. The number of cities, where the applications are providing their service is far less than the world’s total city count. We have analyzed different types of public transport applications and identified different types of users to know the reason behind users’ disappointments and the unavailability of service in most of the cities of the world. We proposed a model for public transport application and built a prototype to partially demonstrate the application. We have also described improvements which are neither available in any application in the market nor suggested by any user. Keywords: Public transport application, mobile app, smartphone app, ticketing system I ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank the University of Eastern Finland and the IMPIT program for providing a nice educational environment which helped me a lot during my master’s degree study life. I would like to thank my thesis advisor Professor Pasi Fränti for reviewing my thesis draft scrupulously and giving me a clear suggestion to write it correctly. I am very thankful to Dr.

  • Connected and Autonomous Vehicles: Implications for Policy and Practice in City and Transportation Planning
    Connected and Autonomous Vehicles: Implications for Policy and Practice in City and Transportation Planning by Charles Ng supervised by Laura Taylor A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada December 8, 2017 Acknowledgments This paper could not have been completed without the help and support of the caring individuals that I am thankful to have in my life. I would like to thank and acknowledge my mother, Maria, and my sister, Ka Lang for providing me with love and support; my advisor, Peter Timmerman, and my supervisor, Laura Taylor, for providing me with academic and non-academic support; and my invaluable friends that I have made in the MES program for their encouragement, support and relief. i Foreword My Area of Concentration for my Plan of Study is sustainable transportation planning for growth management. Connected and Autonomous Vehicles will change the urban landscape, the roles of governments and present new challenges to planners. This paper has allowed me to view transportation planning through the lens of emerging technologies and how this affects cities in the short and long term. There are many sustainability and growth management implications with Connected and Autonomous Vehicles. For example, automated vehicles can foster decentralization because it easily enables travel however, if utilized correctly, automated vehicles can also compliment local transit systems to support intensification. This is especially important in Ontario (Canada’s first province to allow testing of autonomous vehicles on public roads) as it directly relates to the goals and policies related to sprawl and sustainability as outlined in Ontario’s four provincial land use plans: The Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe (GGH), The Greenbelt Plan, The Oak Ridges Moraine Conservation Plan and the Niagara Escarpment Plan.

  • A Time of Unprecedented Change in the Transport System
    — History — Governance — Trends A time of — People — Future — Scenarios for 2040 unprecedented — Geography change in the transport system January 2019 The Future of Mobility Preface Transport is critical for the economy. It creates opportunities for growth, generates jobs, and fa- cilitates trade and realises economies of scale. It enhances UK competitiveness by improving con- nectivity across local, regional and national areas. Mobility is central to the whole of society. It allows people to connect with places, and shapes how we live our lives. Social changes in the last twenty years have greatly altered how and why we use the transport system; shifts over the next twenty years will likely be even more significant. Changes such as the growing, ageing population will meet technological advances in electric power, digitalisation and automation. These technologies will bring opportunities, offering fresh innovation to existing needs, as well as radical new approaches. They will also bring challenges, however. Realising the full potential of technology requires us to consider how users’ travel behaviour will respond to it, and how all of society and our economy can benefit. To be truly transformational, we need to view transport as a system: to consider it as a whole. The future of transport needs to balance a wide range of considerations. Capacity has a role to play, but it must be linked to making travel more sustainable overall, be this through lower emissions, less travel or better linking our journeys to housing and work. A focus on people is central to the future of mobility. Understanding how citizens and businesses make decisions and interact with technology provides an opportunity to place the user at the heart of an integrated system.

  • Tfl Powered Apps - Market Review Findings
    TfL powered apps - market review findings Stop & think session 17th June 2015 Contents 1 Background and objectives 2 Summary of travel tools research 3 What current TfL data tells us 4 Social media and discourse analysis 5 Summary Background and objectives Background . As of January 2015, 7 million people across the UK access travel information through a mobile application. National Rail have the most used travel app in the country with over 1.3 Million people accessing it each month (Source: ComScore January 2015). TfL currently has a successful Open Data strategy that has led to the powering of over 360 travel apps in the UK market – all utilizing TfL’s data in a multitude of different ways. In past research for TfL conducted by 2CV, customer appetite for a TfL app has been clear (indeed many customers believe they are already using TfL apps!). However, TfL’s strategy stipulates that building an official app for customers is not necessary unless a clear gap in the market (not already filled by TfL data-powered apps) can be identified. Before any large scale strategic work is undertaken, TfL want to gain a better understanding of the travel app market – focussing on the 360+ apps they power - there is a need to understand which of these apps customers value and why. TfL has also commissioned a large scale project (TfL Touchpoints) to inform its customer information strategy. This piece of work will look at identifying current and future gaps / opportunities in customers’ needs and will aid understanding of the potential for a TfL app .
