Bringing Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems to life

To demonstrate the concrete benefits of Cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems (CITS), Autobahn GmbH hosted an event for interested trade visitors on October 22, 2024 in Frankfurt. Participants experienced first-hand how the integration of vehicles and infrastructure significantly improves road safety. This C-ITS roadshow organized by Autobahn GmbH was part of the international Car-2-Car Forum 2024, which took place at the House of Logistics and Mobility (HOLM), where C-ITS experts from all over the world gathered.

This task develops the proof of concept, pilot, and kick-off of first day 2 C-ITS services relaying the port of Livorno to the hinterland (see Fig.1). The task delivers a comprehensive approach to the development of these services, defining the standards and requirements based on Day 1 experience drawn from UMneo project, outlining the IT platform integration needed, the infrastructural requirements along the corridor, the security issues and the potential benefits for the supply chain. The action entails both software development and hardware (physical installations) at nodes such as ports and freight villages.
