PTV has joined forces with Arcadis with the stated aim of reshaping the way data is used to plan and manage future mobility in cities.

PTV says its partnership with Arcadis, a design and consultancy organisation, will provide decision makers with a blend of methods and tools to establish new mobility concepts while allowing simulations of different scenarios to run faster.
