Opportunities Ahead…

AUTOCITS

JYW’s Richard Gonzalez recently attended the 4th AUTOCITS workshop in Madrid, outlining the development of C-ITS and CAV initiatives in Europe. The aim of AUTOCITS is to contribute to the deployment of C-ITS, by enhancing interoperability for autonomous vehicles as well as to boost the role of C-ITS as catalyst for the implementation of autonomous driving. Pilots will be implemented in three major Core Urban nodes (Paris, Madrid, Lisbon) located along the Core network Atlantic Corridor in 3 different Member States. With the project consisting of three main phases: Phase 1: Analysis and design; Phase 2: Pilots deployment and assessment; and Phase 3: Dissemination and communication. We are following the C-ITS progress in one of the world’s largest trials with significant interest. If you are interested in more detail on this significant C-ITS project please don’t hesitate to contact us…
