3525 AECOM’s new Mobilitics planning tool removes some of the guesswork surrounding transportation design work including the impact of connected and automated vehicles.

Mobilitics, a free web-based online application, is based on long-range transportation planning and travel demand forecasting to provide comprehensive scenario planning capabilities.

How will roadway design standards accommodate connected vehicles and automated vehicles? Will there still be

a need for parking?  How will – and importantly, when will – connected vehicles affect congestion and travel time reliability?

Mobilitics can help find answers to these major questions by testing multiple scenarios to highlight risks and opportunities for transportation authorities. It allows decision makers to see in real-time, the impacts of decisions related to technology adoption rates, policies, business models, pricing strategies and market-based considerations.

Mobilitics provides sample analytical calculations for 50 large metropolitan regions around the US. This site provides a starting point to inform transportation authorities of the changes they will face and the implications of these changes. In this way, AECOM says that it is helping decision-makers move with confidence.

    Do we need a new approach to ITS and traffic management?
    In an article which has implications for the European Electronic Toll Service, ASECAP's Kallistratos Dionelis asks whether the approach we currently take to major ITS system implementations is always the best or healthiest. I was asked recently to write a paper on the technology-oriented future of transport. To paraphrase, I started with: "The goal of European policy-makers is to establish a transport system which meets society's economic, social and environmental needs, satisfying in parallel a rising dema

    Debating road user charging systems
    Are pre-launch trials of charging systems the way to improve public acceptance? Or is the real key a more robust political attitude? Here, leading system suppliers discuss the issue. The use of distance-based Road User Charging (RUC) is now well established, at least for heavy goods vehicles on strategic roads. However demand management for all vehicles, whether a distance-based charge or some form of cordon scheme, has yet to make significant progress. This is in spite of the logic and equity of RUC being

    Combining accurate network estimates and forecasts with real-time information is the way to deal with traffic hot spots. Alan Dron looks at products which aim to achieve just that. Traffic management authorities have for years been trying to get ahead of the game. Instead of reacting to situations, they want to be able to head them off as they occur – or even before they happen. Finding that Holy Grail of successfully anticipating problems will save time, tension and tempers on city streets. Two new system
