Dencity UDI phase 2 : final report

By: Contributor(s): Publication details: [Göteborg] : CLOSER, [2018]Description: 48 sSubject(s): Online resources: Abstract: The DenCity project has taken on a specific challenge – urbanisation – to develop transport and mobility solutions for future dense urban areas. The urbanisation implies an increased competition for the attractive urban space as well as increased impacts on environment and human health as more people and goods will need to be transported using the same infrastructure. For 2,5 years, the DenCity project has jointly developed, tested and evaluated innovative solutions for future, dense cities - opening up for business opportunities and scalable solutions both nationally and internationally. More specifically, the project has developed electrified distribution trucks, solutions for transporting goods and waste on urban waterways, service development for both passenger mobility and last mile deliveries, as well as planning for needed physical and digital infrastructure. The overall objective is that the solutions developed will result in reduced congestion and environmental effects, new products and services as well as increased quality of life. In the DenCity project, actors from city- and transport planning authorities, transport providers, transport buyers, OEMs, IT-industry, start-ups, real estate developers and academia developed solutions in close collaboration, integrating their different perspectives and experiences.
