It looks like in-car systems have the future. A lot of functionality of road-side systems is put in-car. However, penetration rates of those kind of in-car systems is nog high enough to get rid of the road-side systems. But when will this be the case? This question was discussed with a challenge - a quick scan analysis by a group of experts with a short duration. The report of the challenge can be downloaded here, but is only available in Dutch.

Traffic management measures are for a large part feeded with data from loop detectors. However, nowadays other sources of data are available. These other sources are used for monitoring in traffic management centres, but not to as input for traffic management measusres. Therefore, TrafficQuest has written a report to explore the possibilities of alternative data sources. Note that the report is in Dutch.

Over the past years, TrafficQuest has explored the impacts on traffic flow and traffic management of the introduction of automated vehicles on our roads. In this area, much research is still needed and TrafficQuest has identified research topics and questions that deserve attention in the coming years. One memo describes the regulatory and strategic issues of automated driving for road authorities and planners. The other memo indicates how the possible impacts of mixed traffic (consisting of automated and manually driven vehicles) can be described and quantified, using measurements and simulations.
