FranceThe Foresight method has been successfully applied by the majority of European Union countries. A key element of this method is to predict the possible directions of scientific development by creating a platform of discussion and cooperation between scien ...
PolandThe research programme 'Safety and Security in Transport' (TRANSIKK) is a continuation of the research programme 'Risk and Safety in the Transport Sector' (RISIT) which lasted from 2002 to 2009. The TRANSIKK programme provides funding ...
NorwayASSEMBLING European integration has seen dramatic changes in mobility patterns to meet developments in economic activities. However, decision-makers lack information on current patterns of transport activity, and there is only limited knowledge of the imp ...
EuropeanASTRA The transport sector forms a complex system. Some of the major driving forces act over the long term, such as decisions on land-use and infrastructure or changes in lifestyle, while other determinants such as prices can affect demand, modal split an ...
EuropeanMAESTRO Many innovations in the transport sector (such as technologies, transport concepts and policy measures) are tested and demonstrated at pilot scale prior to decision-making on their large-scale introduction. This reduces the investment risk and per ...
EuropeanMEET EU Member States are required to report their annual emissions according to various international obligations. In addition, environmental policy-making requires reliable estimates of emissions for current and future technologies. This is particularly ...
EuropeanPASTEUR In the transport sector, research is an essential support to policy-making, ensuring that the most effective measures are adopted in support of economic, social and environmental goals. But this research is often split between various European, na ...
EuropeanPATS The re-alignment of transport prices to reflect real social costs is seen as an economically efficient way of combating congestion and pollution and promoting an appropriate split between the transport modes. However, this may involve higher charges ...
EuropeanSCENARIOS Decision making on transport policy can be supported by the availability of a reference scenario. This can be defined as 'the projection of current trends for selected variables for a future horizon year.' Scenario preparation involves ...
EuropeanUTI-NORM At the core of efficient intermodal transport are standardised loading units that can be used with any means of freight transport. In Europe, the differences among countries and among cargo carriers have led to several sizes of containers being i ...
EuropeanNPF-Urban Transport The European White Paper on Transport Policy identified the ever-increasing congestion, environmental pollution and consumption of energy based on imported fossil fuels as key causes for the deteriorating performance of Europe's t ...
EuropeanPROTRANS The international competitiveness of European industry will increasingly depend on its ability to deliver customer-adapted products all over the world quickly and in time. Such a competitive image places a number of demands in the logistics syste ...
