Influencing Transport Lab – insights from our Demand Responsive Transport Behavioural Research

Our presentation will discuss how the Influencing transport lab aims to address the challenges in delivering effective behaviour change locally, regionally, and nationally. It will also present our ambition to create an
evidence base and share best practice around travel behaviour change.
It will demonstrate how a behavioural approach can be applied to demand responsive transport (DRT). It will highlight what an investigation of users’ and non-users’ perceptions tells us about delivering a DRT service that
meets their mobility needs.
Finally, it will present results from testing social modelling interventions in demand responsive transport, to understand how effective they are at increasing the uptake of DRT.

Energizing Mobility: Grid Resilience for Sustainable Clean Transportation.

Climate Change and the Growing Grid Vulnerability: We will delve into the increasing frequency of natural disasters driven by climate change, such as hurricanes, wildfires, and extreme weather event. All while highlighting
the impact natural disasters have on not only the electric grid but the impact, they have on the commercial market including first responders.
The Importance of Grid Resiliency: The future success of transportation electrification requires predictable and reliable access to electricity. In this section will focus on three key areas. Firstly, the vital role of grid resiliency
in powering zero emission vehicles and advancing transportation electrification. Second, why resiliency matters for the stability of our energy infrastructure amid climate challenges, while providing an estimated overall
electricity demands that will be required as the world moves towards 100% electrification across the light, medium, and heavy-duty vehicles. Lastly, explore traditional resiliency measures that bolster grid stability and
Solutions and Overcoming Constraints: In this segment, we will take a closer look at solutions for grid resiliency. We will start with a deep dive into microgrids, their advantages, and how they bolster grid reliability. Then, we
will explore the Energy-as-a-Service model for energy security and adaptability. Lastly, we will address practical challenges, including regulatory, financial, and technical hurdles, that must be overcome to realize grid
resiliency

Internet of Things: Transforming Security in Smart Transportation

This presentation will expand upon the guidance and information presented in last year’s “IoT: Pushing New Security Boundaries in Smart Transportation” with updates that have been added to the guidance and additional use cases.
Internet of Things Embedded Security Guidance for Vendors is a new collection of security advice and best practices for IoT developers published by the Center for Internet Security (CIS) in collaboration with leading
industry experts and key stakeholders.
With the smart transportation market likely to surpass $250 billion by 2030, the rise in integration of smart transportation technologies (cloud-based, vehicle-to-vehicle, etc.) raises the concern of the level of security that
can be provided

How do we integrate smarter safety and security with smarter transportation systems to ensure we are better prepared if disaster strikes.

Protecting our multi-modal transportation hubs of the future requires an integrated approach to security risk management, from concept design to passenger operations.
Integrating safety and security with new, smarter transportation systems requires effective techniques to design out crime, providing crime prevention measures through environmental design.
Preparing for major emergencies is a vital part of improving our capability for emergency response and resilience, and minimizing business interruption.

“There’s more to life than a car”.Powered Two, Three and Light 4 Wheel Vehicles (Powered Light Vehicles) can provide a more environmental efficient form of
mobility as a serious alternative to the car

Whilst electric cars & vans appear to be the solution to the climate challenges, Governments appear to be ignoring the climate impacts these solutions have on the wider environment. The objective for Western
Governments must not be to displace the problem elsewhere.
Energy security is becoming a major concern, with this in mind battery electric and the raw materials needed in battery production will create new risks and environmental impacts not yet fully understood or ignored.
Powered Light Vehicles from a Life Cycle Analysis perspective is far more environmentally efficient to manufacture, operate in life and manage waste at end of life. This vehicle type will provide mobility solutions for both
people and goods in the urban and sub-urban setting, requiring less road space, reducing congestion and in many cases zero emissions at the tailpipe.

“Exploring how connected and autonomous mobility can help deliver economic growth

Set out the Commission’s progress on its study on the opportunities offered by automation and connectivity for delivering improvements to road safety, reducing congestion, improving the reliability and accessibility of
transport services, and increasing productivity, and consider the implications for how the UK operates and maintain its road infrastructure.
Explore emerging findings and insights from the first phase of the study and identify the areas where the Commission is likely to focus its recommendations, outlining what interventions in the country’s road and other
infrastructure (including data) may be required to realise the benefits from this emerging technology.
Consider the policy and governance challenges that will need to be overcome to do this, within the context of uncertainty about the direction of future technological development
