An invitation has been issued for a stakeholder workshop, organised by the Satie project which will be held on 26 April, after this year’s Transport Research Arena in Athens (www.traconference.eu).
The purpose of the workshop is for participants to help explore options to design, develop and deploy a major new Europe-wide initiative for sustainable, intelligent mobility.

The Satie project (www.satie.eu/), co-funded by the 2465 European Commission through the 7th Framework Programme for Research, is creating and validating a concept for a European Large-Scale Action (ELSA) to stimulate innovation and its take-up in the domain of information and communication technologies (ICT) for transport and mobility. Such an ELSA would aim to create a new kind of partnership between authorities, industry, SMEs and research. That partnership would be able to channel much of the dispersed effort, funding and impact of today’s European and national R&D projects into one single goal-driven initiative linking test-beds and innovation incubators from across Europe.

    New initiatives could boost transport sustainability – David Crawford writes. New roles are opening up for urban traffic management systems in helping city authorities to meet increasingly stringent governmental and supra-governmental air quality standards. European local authorities are typically tasked with both traffic management and pollution monitoring within their areas, making them well placed to draw on the latter to mitigate the impacts of the former.

    New data shows a continued improvement in road safety in Europe, with a reduction in fatalities in 2012 compared with the previous year. The information shows that there were 2,661 fewer road deaths in the EU during 2012 than in 2011. This shows countries are on track with the aim of lowering the fatality rate by half between 2010 and 2020. Over the first two years of the 2010-2020 target the EU nations reduced road deaths by 11%, 600 deaths short of the number that would have been needed to reach the EU ta
