Start Smart Mobility Amsterdam 2019 - 2025

An accessible, liveable and less polluted city: this is what we’d like to achieve for residents, visitors and businesses in Amsterdam today and for future generations.
Smarter and cleaner mobility can help us realise these aims. As a city, we want to offer Amsterdammers, commuters and visitors alternatives to the present forms of mobility, providing a door-to-door solution and contributing to our aims. This includes shared electric transport, from cars to bikes, in ‘Neighbourhood eHubs’ (eBuurthubs) established in cooperation with local residents. That way, we can use clean modes of transport and create more space in the city by sharing. We can then use this extra space to improve liveability.

Actions

To achieve the ambitions, we will start working with two program lines:

1. Data and digitization
This program line helps the municipal organization digital tools and skills to ensure sufficient control in the future be able to rely on mobility in the city and around
improve quality in public spaces. We are working towards a mobility center of the
future. For this we will use the take the following steps:
• A shared basis: building a strong one data position
• A level playing field: frameworks
• Learning by doing: from traffic management to mobility management
• Ready for the future: aware of the consequences of digitization of mobility

2. Innovative mobility solutions

In this program we work together on concrete smart and clean alternatives to transport, so that Amsterdammers and visitors to the city are less dependent on their own car. We do this by setting up projects in certain urban areas and for specific target groups. We also focus on smart city logistics and we explore the possibilities of transport by water and air. Special attention is given to vulnerable groups and Amsterdam residents with a small grant. We improve the range of new affordable mobility concepts and increase demand, we grow into smart mobility city number 1 with a better and accessible mobility system for everyone. For this we will include the following in this program:

• Smart organization of mobility in the city: travelers are working on alternatives to possessing cars and initiating behavioral change.
• Smart fitting and efficient deployment of new mobility solutions: creating space for new concepts in the city and scaling up
• Anticipate on technological innovations: insights into new opportunities and collaborations. The report contains an overview of the various projects started in the previous program that are still running and newly started activities.

Featured image

Mobility on demand (MOD) has created a swing from a reliance upon traditional methods to embracing more scalable multi-modal transport initiatives. This takes us a step closer to achieving fully integrated, sustainable and scalable Mobility as a Service but to do so, public and private companies must work more closely than ever before.

Our exclusive live webinar “Mobility Redefined? Blurred Lines & New Business Models” (Thurs, May 2, 15:00 CET) feat. ViaVan, POLIS, MaaS Global & EMTA will discuss how we integrate mobility platforms with public transit infrastructure to provide on-demand and dynamic transportation solutions.

Key topics include:
• Mobility Redefined? See how municipalities need to innovate to explore new models which cater to evolving demands and lower congestion and emissions.
• Solving Public Transport Pain Points: Understanding how the public sector and transport authorities are creating new regulation for open data sharing
• Powered By Data: Harness the power of data to optimise routes, distribution and feed real time transportation data to commuters for a seamless transport experience
• Create Trusted Public/ Private Partnerships: Discuss how to work in harmony with the cities and enable integration between public transportation and shared mobility services

Webinar on Properties of electric Vehicles - FABULOS Academy webinar #1

Featured image

In 2019, the FABULOS project will organise six webinar sessions on robot bus topics introducing basic concepts, specific terminology and technologies commonly encountered in the field of automated mobility. The primary target groups are cities and other procuring authorities.

A new era of transportation
Increasingly many cities and public transport authorities are confronted with mobility innovations. Autonomous public transport is one of the “hot topics” that will radically change the urban mobility scene within the next decade. Several European cities have already gained experience with automated shuttle buses and many other cities have an interest in doing so. However, automated shuttles are not yet finished products and not ready for cost effective operation. Therefore, pilots in cities are critical to enable the development of the autonomous vehicles and their related systems.

However, employees at municipalities or other procuring entities often do not have in-depth knowledge regarding these novel technologies. Knowing all details is not always necessary, but when taking part in a pilot or procurement for (shared) autonomous mobility, it is essential to be aware of the fundamentals on, for example, sensors, positioning, cyber threats and charging. To bridge the knowledge gap, the FABULOS project launches the FABULOS Academy.

Six webinar topics
The FABULOS Consortium hosts six one-hour webinars in 2019. In case of popular demand on certain topic, a separate in-depth session can be organised. Below are the confirmed webinars (see https://fabulos.eu/fabulos-academy-2019/ for event details and registration form) as well as the foreseen topics:

1. Properties of electric vehicles (14 February 2019)
2. Regulatory aspects of autonomous mobility (16 April 2019)
3. Wireless communication technologies
4. Robot bus localisation (ie. positioning)
5. Sensors of robot buses and sensor fusion
6. Cyber threats and threat mitigation

Once upon a time in the future....

----when autonomous cars are the only driving vehicles (hopefully not too many) traffic will be much safer than today.

But what about the next decade when ordinary cars, automated cars and self-driving cars are mixed? In my newest post, you will find an answer to this question.

Sign up for the Amsterdam Mobility Challenge!

The Metropolitan Region Amsterdam (MRA) expects to grow by two million people and more than 200,000 houses in the next 30 years. Because of this; a complex mobility challenge arises that has to answer to the following questions:

• How can we keep the traffic flowing in a way that allows people to get where they need to be?
• How can we make sure goods will be delivered to people and companies?
• How can we approach this challenge knowing that we are moving towards an emission-free world?
• How can we maintain investment levels in infrastructure at an acceptable and affordable level?

We’re challenging teams to develop solutions that focus on:
• Optimization: improve driver, vehicle and fleet efficiency
• Public transport & shared mobility: introduce new methods of transportation and multimodality that are more accessible and flexible for everyone
• Interactive systems with existing infrastructure

Solutions should contribute to Amsterdam’s 2025 zero emission target and should work for and benefit the whole ecosystem of the government, transportation and logistics companies, retailers, insurers, the automotive industry and tech/digital companies. In addition, a major focus should be to provide citizens with new modes of transportation that are faster, cheaper, cleaner, safer and more efficient.

First prize for the winning solution:
€4.000 + travel for two people per winning team to attend the Garage Opening Festival in Amsterdam, April 11, 2019, where they will pitch their idea to top CEOs from each industry.

FABULOS

Featured image

FABULOS (Future Automated Bus Urban Level Operation System) is a European research and development project to establish and deliver a systemic proof-of-concept for automated last mile public transport as part of the existing transport system of urban areas, based on the use of self-driving minibuses. The FABULOS project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme and runs from 1 January 2018 until 31 December 2020. The FABULOS project has partners in Estonia, Finland, Greece, the Netherlands, Norway and Portugal. The six procuring partners use Pre-Commercial Procurement as a tool to co-create an innovative solution together with multiple companies. Contracts have been signed in December 2018 with 5 consortia. The first Phase (feasibility study) starts in January 2019. Actual piloting of fleets of robot buses takes place in all 6 partner cities from Spring 2002 onwards.
Most recent press release: https://fabulos.eu/five-consortia-awarded-contracts-in-fabulos-pre-commercial-procurement/

The FABULOS consortium has finalised the evaluation of the tenders in December 2018 and has awarded five consortia with contracts. The aim of these contracts is to facilitate procurement of R&D work to develop systems capable of operating fleets of automated minibuses. As a first step towards this goal, each consortium will conduct a feasibility study of proposed solutions and technologies.

After the closing of the FABULOS request for tenders on 31 October 2018, the tenders were assessed by the Technical Evaluation Committee. In addition to commercial feasibility and project management, nine functional criteria and three non-functional criteria were used. The functional criteria range from fleet management and remote operation and all the way to requirements for vehicle capabilities in mixed traffic. Societal and legal aspects form elements of the non-functional criteria. The fleet is expected to drive in mixed traffic, at urban speeds, in nearly in all weather conditions and without a conductor on board.

“We were positively surprised by the high quality of tenders received and were pleased to discover so many exceptional solutions to the FABULOS challenge. It will be very exciting to see these proposed solutions become a reality by the end of 2020,” summarises Technical Chair of the Evaluation Committee Oscar Nissin, from Metropolia University of Applied Sciences.

Five European consortia have succeeded in the first stage of the competition. In total, 16 companies from six European countries formed consortia as follows:

  • The FVF Consortium consisting of three Finnish partners: Fortum Power and Heat Oy, Fleetonomy.ai Oy and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland.
  • The Kompai-Actia Consortium consisting of two French companies: Kompaï Robotics and Actia Automobile.
  • The Mobile Civitatem Consortium consisting of four partners from Estonia: Modern Mobility Oü, Tallinn University of Technology, Silberauto Eesti AS and Ecofleet Eesti Oü. The fifth member of the consortium is the Danish company Autonomous Mobility A/S.
  • The Saga Consortium consisting of four Norwegian partners: Halogen AS, Forus PRT AS, Spare Labs Inc. and Ramboll Management Consulting AS.
  • The Sensible 4 – Shotl Consortium consisting of two partners: Sensible 4 from Finland and Shotl from Spain.

The total FABULOS procurement budget is around 5,500,000 euros (incl. VAT). The maximum budget for individual suppliers involved in all three phases is over 1,000,000 euros (incl. VAT).

Smart Mobility in de MRA: gewoon doen!

Featured image

Met smart mobility oplossingen maken we mobiliteit binnen de Metropoolregio Amsterdam slimmer, duurzaam en toekomstbestendig. Maar hoe ziet de regio er over twintig of dertig jaar uit? Tijdens de tweejaarlijkse kennisbijeenkomst Smart Mobility in de MRA op 1 november jl. kwamen alle betrokken partners en marktpartijen bij elkaar voor de laatste update over lopende projecten.

Innovatieve last mile
Op station Zaandam stonden elektrische steps en scooters, deelauto’s en deelfietsen opgesteld. Deelnemers van het congres konden deze unieke services gebruiken voor de last mile van station naar evenementenlocatie Taets. Dé ideale manier om kennis te maken met elektrische steps van Enino, groene scooters van Felyx, deelauto’s van Stap Inn, innovatief OV van Via Van en deelfietsen van FlickBike. Na een woord van wethouder Gerard Slegers werd tijdens de opening van het congres de diensten van FlickBike ook in de gemeente Zaanstad gelanceerd.

Projectenoverzicht
Naast kennisdelen en ontmoeten stond ook de Smart Mobility projectenkaart centraal met daarop alle lopende projecten in de MRA. Dit is de eerste keer dat er een overall overzicht gepresenteerd is met daarop alle actuele projecten. Het overzicht is tijdens de dag verder aangevuld met projecten die er nog niet op stonden. Het resultaat zie je hier. Wil je op de hoogte blijven van het projectenoverzicht? Stuur dan een mail naar smartmobility[@]vervoerregio.nl.

Kennis delen in workshops
De kennisbijeenkomst stond deze keer in het teken van de toekomstbestendigheid rondom smart mobility. Na twee inspirerende, soms uitdagende key-notes van trendwatcher Richard van Hooijdonk en directeur Thijs Emondts van Uber werd er binnen verschillende workshops en speeddates gesproken over projecten en initiatieven in de regio. Zo namen Derk Wantia (MOJO Concerts) en Arwind Gajadien (LiveCrowd) de aanwezigen mee in de afwegingen voor een soepel verkeer rondom festivals en zocht Bart van Arem (TU Delft) naar input voor een wetenschappelijk vervolgonderzoek naar zelfrijdend vervoer in de MRA.

Speeddaten: alles wat je weten wilde over...
Uniek aan het evenement was de mogelijkheid om te speeddaten. Onder het motto ‘alles wat je altijd wilde weten over…’ konden deelnemers in korte tijd alles te weten komen over onder andere Talking Traffic of de slimme energieopslag in de Johan Cruijff ArenA. Een laagdrempelige manier om te discussieren, netwerken en geinspireerd de deur uit te lopen.

Op de hoogte blijven
