As part of Paris Bus 2035, 4205 Iveco Bus and 5561 CNH Industrial Design led a student project at L’École de design Nantes Atlantique (The Nantes School of Design) in France, where students of the School’s newly established Transport Design program were asked to put forward ideas on what Paris’ future buses could look like.

The project was overseen by Claire d’Achon, senior industrial designer at CNH Industrial Bus product ranges and the 15 students presented their concepts using digital sketches, 3D models and mock-up showing their understanding of bus design from the exterior structure to interiors and the services which a bus can offer.

One of the students will be chosen for an internship program at CNH Industrial’s Bus Design Department in Vénissieux, France, where they will work closely with Claire d’Achon and the Bus Design team.

ITS technology working together with UK planning legislation is driving an innovative 'kitchen as travel centre' approach to home design which is boosting public transport as an alternative to car use. The combination is already proving powerful enough to assuage environmentalist opposition to major urban developments. It is also being seen as a way of delivering wider social and community benefits inside an

    Fusion Processing’s Jim Hutchinson looks at a two-year trial of the company’s cyclist detection system. Is cycling in a city dangerous? Well, that depends where you are and how you view statistics. Malmö is far more bike-friendly than Mumbai and the risk can either be perceived as small - one death per 29 million miles cycled in the UK in 2013 - or large - that equated to 109 deaths in the same year. Whatever your personal take on the data, the effect of these accidents can be felt indirectly too. News of c

    Daimler’s Mercedes-Benz Future Bus made its first autonomous trip on a public road recently, when it was driven at speeds of up to 70 km/h on a section of a bus rapid transit route in Amsterdam in the Netherlands. The 20 kilometre route, which links Schiphol Airport with the town of Haarlem, provided a challenge for the bus, with its numerous bends, tunnels and traffic signals. Although a driver was on board for safety reasons, for the most part the bus met the challenge autonomously, stopping at bus sto
