Transport: Trade body urged to drive ‘broader communications’
ITS UK members will be challenged to help develop broader approaches to transport communications at the trade body’s annual meeting in Birmingham next Thursday (29 June).
Chair Eric Sampson, a former head of ITS at the Department for Transport, will urge them to take up European ‘Mobility 2.0’ thinking, based on the interactive Web 2.0 concept of information sharing.
‘ITS is a moving train’, he told delegates to the ITS UK annual conference in Manchester on Tuesday. ‘We’ve all got to get on it, and this European drive is something that we can help to deliver.’
Earlier, Paul Kompfner of ERTICO ITS-Europe highlighted key needs to be met if members were to realise the Mobility 2.0 vision. Car-to-car communications were already developing fast, he said, backed by an automotive industry consortium.
