New Danish ITS-strategy

ITSDanmark Proposed activities from ITS Denmark Automatic speed control More passengers in public transport Faster busses Digital roadmap ITS on roads e-call – implementation co-modal dynamic information IT based car sharing new multimodal transport model for DK Roadpricing ?

New ITS actionplan big demonstration projects more ITS on roads information to the users more data – (e.g. OD for freight) more knowledge co-operation

”Just in time” big demonstration project – app. 20 m€ dynamic information before, under and after your trip –collection of all data –co-modality dynamic information –dynamic calculation of travel time –free distribution –platform for apps development

Dynamic data public transport data –planes –trains –busses GPS data (fleets, private cars) video detection loops bluetooth data

The roles Triple helix – co-operation between –Public authorities strategy founding – owner –private sector advisor developer –universities research
