Skills

Our partnership offers a wide range of skills eg. transport engineering and developing the fundamental technologies and system applications required to enable future intelligent transport systems.

We have an understanding of the impact of different transport modes, transitions and technologies on different users. We also take a systems perspective to predicting the impact and form of future transport systems.

We have world-class skills in the following areas critical to the understanding of intelligent mobility:

Journey experience

Our work has considered contributors to and attitudes towards a seamless, personalised, multimodal, end-to-end journey supported by ubiquitous smartphone technologies. These include the:

  • impact of social media and crowd-sourced data on transport users and providers
  • environmentally-conscious travel including car sharing
  • technical and user requirements for real-time journey planning and management

Intelligent infrastructure

We are internationally-leading experts in sensing and tracking technologies, and their application to road safety and connected/autonomous vehicles. We take a multi-stakeholder perspective, identifying and meeting the information and data requirements of transport providers, passengers and business innovators in normal and disrupted transport operations, contributing to improved network performance.

Future transport systems

We apply a systems approach to envisioning future, integrated, intelligent, safe, environmentally-conscious and accessible transport for future cities.
