Pollution and Air Quality
Parking and Population
Improved traffic flow – better control & more data
Far more electric vehicles
New types of urban transport – all electric PODs
On-demand transport – fewer private cars
On-demand transport – less parking space
CAVs share public space with pedestrians & cyclists
Improved traffic flow – better control & more data
Far fewer private vehicles – ride & car sharing
Road owner control of private journeys
56. Roundtable DISCUSSIONS
How will we ever trust computers to drive
us safely?

Can CAVs really reduce congestion and
pollution in cities?
Who will be the winners & losers in the
future CAV world?

Other influencing factors include;
Access to Health Services;
Healthy workplaces;
access to green space and leisure;
housing quality;

access to public services;

emergency response
A common underpinning element of these examples is our deep understanding of place. Analysis of OS, Health, ONS Census and other related data can enable predictive analysis which helps to shape and target health interventions, identifying at risk homes and individuals.
This image shows a mix of ONS census and Ordnance Survey data taken from the Output Area statistics for 2011 and the Index of multiple deprivation published in October 2015. The shaded polygons are the % population who describe their own health as very good and the residential property is filled with the income decile data with dark red being bottom 10% and dark green top 10%.
If you’ve heard anything about Driverless Cars, or Connected and Autonomous Vehicles CAVs, you are likely to have seen this vision of the future from 1956.
This family are happily entertaining themselves as the car speeds along the motorway.
Notice – there are no seat beats, airbags, the road is clear.
But the barriers are not just detecting roads
But in the early stages of public deployments and trials, reality looks more like this:
- What do people like and want?
- What should be legal?
- Who is responsible when something goes wrong?
Automated driving in the real world faces a order of magnitude increase in complexity, if not 2 orders.
The road to widespread adoption must wind round numerous complicated challenges…
I want to tell you - briefly – about a two projects based in the West of England that are investigating these questions and developing some answers.
The first project is VENTURER was the first of the joint government/industry funded projects to start in the UK.
£5 million research project.
Working in partnership with local universities. VENTURER brings together a rich partnership of public, private and academic experts in order to establish the South West, UK as a world class test site facility for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV). VENTURER focuses on the users as well as the technology enabling CAVs in order to understand the blockers and drivers to wide scale adoption of CAV capability.
The VENTURER trials go hand in hand with developing an understanding of the insurance and legal implications of increased vehicle autonomy. VENTURER is also establishing a realistic simulation environment.
The project will last for three years and takes place in the Bristol and South Gloucestershire region, with an independent test site established as part of a sustainable and ongoing facility.
The project is co-funded by UK Government.
FLOURISH is a multi-sector collaboration, helping to advance the successful implementation of Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAVs) in the UK, by developing services and capabilities that link user needs and system requirements.
The three year project, worth £5.5 million, seeks to develop products and services that maximise the benefits of Connected and Autonomous vehicles for users and transport authorities.
By adopting a user-centred approach, FLOURISH will achieve a better understanding of consumer demands and expectations, including the implications and challenges of an ageing society.
FLOURISH will address vulnerabilities in the technology powering CAVs, with a focus on the critical areas of cyber security and wireless communications.
The project is trialled in the Bristol and South Gloucestershire region and is co-funded by UK Government.
Wireless connectivity using 802.11P DSRC and wide area cellular
Leverages £14M investment in high capacity comms infrastructure in the Open Programmable City Region
Demonstrates effective cyber security solutions for wireless CAV comms
Development of a secure architecture for CAV control systems & forensics data logging capability
CAV data capture, fusion & analytics & visualisation for traffic management, planners and new service developers
Adaptable human-machine interfaces, for older people & others, based on user’s real experiences
