Popis: |
In the Netherlands, the well-developed multi-mode accessible Rhein/Meuse/Scheldt delta region continues to flourish as the gateway to Europe. At the same time, severe congestion is threatening the quality of life. Adding to the challenges is a shortage of qualified truck drivers and the fact that no significant extensions to the physical road infrastructure are foreseen in the upcoming years, while traffic is forecasted to grow tremendously. Therefore, the search is on for innovations that utilize the existing infrastructure better and improve traffic flow, increase traffic safety, and decrease emissions from passenger and freight transport. Cooperative automation in transport and logistics is thought to bring about these promises, with one high-potential use case being Truck Platooning. |
