Description
This project explores new ways of combining work and life with
new intelligent transport system
services and new concepts for supporting sustainable commuting. The
mobility of workforce is
increasing due to technology development, commuting and the nature
of work. This has many
consequences as long commuting may decrease the productivity of
work and leave less time for
relaxation. Cities also have to address commuting when planning
technical solutions, developing
services and calculating finance schemes. The first objective of
this project is to identify the changing
needs of mobile workers. The second objective is to increase the
sustainability of mobility by supporting
the implementation of sustainable and intelligent transportation
services. The consortium will collect
data by observations, surveys, interviews and workshops in Austria,
Finland and Switzerland to evaluate
how these new services meet the evolving needs of mobile workers.
In addition, we will use simulations
to provide decision support for stakeholders address urban planning
and governance structures
challenges. Implementations in large commuting areas are pivotal
aspects of this project.
Implementations in different areas help to scale up our partners’
operations, get experiences about the
needs of users and also discover some common ground for governance
and city planning policies.
