Electric Multimodal Transport Systems for Enhancing Urban Accessibility and Connectivity

This project targets to facilitate the development of multimodal transport systems with connected electric public transit and shared micro-mobility for sustainable, more efficient, and equitable mobility services with enhanced urban accessibility, resilience and connectivity. The consortium envisages holistically tackling critical and unsettled aspects in the current practice.

We will develop holistic methodological and technical innovations through co-creation among key stakeholders at multiple levels, including infrastructure planning at the strategical level, system optimization, network design and management at the tactical level, and vehicle/platoon control and battery management at the operational level, with considerations of diverse users’ needs and behavioral responses.

The applicability and value of the project can be demonstrated in real-life applications through public authorities and industry partners.
