European Transport Conference 2014

The European Transport Conference 2014, taking place in Frankfurt, Germany, on 29 September to 1 October, has extended the transport modelling element of the conference to two modelling streams: one for demand modellers and one for assignment modellers. These include sessions on: activity and tour based modelling; multi mode modelling; rail and air; highway and public transport assignment; dynamic traffic assignment modelling for real time control of traffic signals; and traffic micro-simulation Session

The European Transport Conference 2014, taking place in Frankfurt, Germany, on 29 September to 1 October, has extended the transport modelling element of the conference to two modelling streams: one for demand modellers and one for assignment modellers. These include sessions on: activity and tour based modelling; multi mode modelling; rail and air; highway and public transport assignment; dynamic traffic assignment modelling for real time control of traffic signals; and traffic micro-simulation

Sessions also include a day for pedestrian modelling and a day covering the use of big data in modelling and building origin-destination matrices. There will also be a session on the recent advances in transport modelling software. A Sunday evening tutorial on the basics of modelling will enable delegates to get the best out of the conference’s modelling papers.

    Ride-hailing company Lyft has recalled 3,000 electric bikes from cities in the US because of concerns over their braking systems. The brands affected are Citi Bike in New York, Capital Bikeshare in Washington, DC, and the Bay Area’s Ford GoBike. A similar statement on each company’s website says: “We recently received a small number of reports from riders who experienced stronger than expected braking force on the front wheel. Out of an abundance of caution, we are proactively removing the pedal-assi

    The US Department of Transportation (USDoT) is seeking public comment on how Vehicle to Everything (V2X) technology should be integrated into the transport environment. The organisation says it intends to maintain the priority use of 5.9Ghz spectrum for transportation safety communications. It points out that the automotive industry and local authorities “are already deploying V2X technology and actively utilising all seven channels of the 5.9 GHz band” and says that technology such as Cellular-V2X (C-V2
