Editor's Notes
This includes better mobility for travelers and freight, attractive towns and cities. Being able to offer attractive living environments, attractive city center and good communications will continue to be important factors in competing for people and investment capital. The transport planning must have a system’s view striving for an efficient and cost-effective development and use of different modes of transport including new concepts. Public transport and facilitating cycling is an important tool for achieving environmental, energy reduction and climate goals. Long distance surface transport is another important aspect, related to transport of passengers and freight. Issues related to capacity, scheduling, and designing integrated multimodal services are important research questions together with evaluation of the effect on planned changes in infrastructure. Demand management including a sophisticated use of information technology and pricing instruments can be further developed and implemented, especially in urban areas including high degree of functional mix and high densities in urban areas. Also including, planning and managing for change of modal split by mobility management and other instruments and monitoring with open communication to the public and enterprises/business in the area that are partly responsible as informed users of a common transport system. Development of new concepts in transport systems and services, building on innovation in many other areas (including technology and policy), is very central. Furthermore, optimization of transport systems operations, built on the increasing availability of data, is an important contributor to the sustainability of the system in light of environmental, natural resources, and fiscal constraints.
The need to get more value for money for transport infrastructure operations must be emphasized. In this respect, research must be carried out to improve planning processes, infrastructure designs, maintenance, as well as to find business models promoting innovative solutions for the construction market dealing with transport infrastructure. Choosing strategies for problem solving there must be a combination of policy measures including pricing and regulations, climate-efficient transport and climate-efficient building and maintenance of infrastructure. An eco-friendly transport system is characterized by efficient use of resources, low or no emissions of greenhouse gases and other emissions, and an efficient land use. The development of innovative material solutions and construction techniques, integration of highway and railway engineering with transportation systems analysis and design, vehicle-infrastructure interaction considerations and also harbor and hubs design are important components of the strategy towards sustainable transport systems.
Creative use of new tools in conjunction with new materials, new controls technology and future propulsion alternatives will enable the design of innovative vehicle architectures with substantially improved energy efficiency, safety, economy and reduced environmental impact. The strategy to achieve world-class innovation calls for the strong interaction of the above elements. For example, integration is closely related to innovation, i.e. the more closely the subsystems are coupled together the more efficient the design becomes, and this requires enhanced multi-disciplinary design. Advances in modeling, analysis and simulation along with first principle testing are enablers just like advances in materials, controls and propulsion systems to push the creation of more innovative concepts. Set up correctly, academia can become very fertile ground for the incubation of innovation because all the required ingredients are at play – a charter to carry out research with advanced tools and technology, experts who give instruction in the use of these, and young creative minds that follow the lead of their mentors and mature with their own creativity. Our goal is to set up such a creative environment. For the design process to be truly innovative, it is essential to consider how the vehicle fulfills the necessary requirements through its entire life-cycle i.e. from concept, to design and development, to manufacture, to operation in the actual transportation task, and finally to disposal. Technological advances to reach this vision of innovation are directed towards the operational and functional aspects of the design, use and manufacturing of safe, efficient and cost effective vehicles.
ICT developments make the development of cooperative and zero-fatality transportation systems possible through real-time decision support and autonomous vehicles. This necessitates the development of novel system and software architectures that provide dependable operation while ensuring that the solutions are cost-efficient and are able to evolve. ICT developments can generate very detailed data on the status of the transport system, as well as the behavior and movement of people and goods at resolutions we never had in the past. Mobile phones and GPS, for example, can provide large amounts of traffic data and data on people’s mobility choices, activities, and movements. These data offer unique opportunities for development of a) new services, and b) fundamental research to better understand the dynamic performance of transport systems and people’s choices and goods movements in an urban area. This deeper understanding can lead to better design of informative systems and more efficient design of services. While ICT developments provide enabling technologies they also drastically change the way transportation systems are built today. Software and networking become key technologies, and the product complexity is growing. New development and maintenance methodologies are required to deal with such ICT-based vehicles, in particular with respect to system verification and validation.
Developing regulatory measures and institutional frameworks is a delicate task with complex and far-reaching consequences also including equity and distributional considerations. The interaction between transportation and society, the integrated planning of transportation and land use, an analysis of how transport investment may foster productivity and economic development, include knowledge and methods for assessing impacts from land use change or behavior change on transport systems. Vice versa it also impacts on environment and the continuous need for monitoring towards policy goals connected to main goal of sustainable development. Development of methods for policy evaluation is also an important focus in this thematic area.
