Project description
Digital tools to transform urban mobility for a sustainable future
In the pursuit of carbon neutrality, cities face the pressing challenge of adopting innovative energy models for urban mobility. Success hinges on sustainable solutions that are inclusive, affordable, safe and tailored to community needs. With this in mind, the EU-funded AMIGOS project will use cutting-edge digital tools to identify and tackle mobility issues in 5 cities (living labs) and 10 urban areas. These digital tools, including the Mobility Observation Box and a data collection app, enable the creation of digital twins for visualising mobility scenarios. This technology empowers urban stakeholders to identify challenges and co-develop solutions, promoting reduced traffic, increased public and active mobility, improved safety and the harmonious coexistence of different mobility modes.
Objective
To reach carbon neutrality, cities must adopt new, more adapted energy models for urban mobility, relying on zero-emission and active mobility modes. The uptake of sustainable mobility solutions relies on their inclusivity, affordability and safety, as well as their consistency with users’ needs. Through co-creation activities and innovative digital tools, the AMIGOS project will identify present and future mobility challenges for 5 cities (living labs) and 10 urban areas (safety improvement areas). The digital tools include a Mobility Observation Box and an application for the collection of new mobility data, which will feed a big data platform for their analysis and digital twins to visualize mobility scenarios. They will allow urban stakeholders to identify mobility challenges and will serve as a basis for the co-development of adapted mobility solutions: towards reducing traffic, increasing public and active mobility modes, improving safety and co-habitation between different mobilities for the 5 cities, and towards increased safety for the 10 urban areas. Therefore, key stakeholders such as public authorities and vulnerable users will be included in the definition of technological and policy solutions mobility solutions which will be implemented in the cities. Their environmental, safety, economic and social impacts will be assessed, in addition to their medium- and long-term impact and their replicability, in view of their implementation in 5 twin cities.
