Bicycles and ITS

Programme 2014 - 2020 INTERREG VB North Sea

Description

Description (EN):

A modal shift to green transport is urgently needed as congestion, pollution, growing population and health problems threaten the livability of NSR´s urban areas. Cycling has proven to be a major solution for these challenges. Not only as separate mode but also as a part of the multimodal transport system. More cycling data is urgently needed to position cycling within the multimodal transport system and to improve the system as a whole.Regions involved in BITS already show a high bicycle use (NL, DK, BE) or have ambition to increase bicycle use (UK, DE). Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are important tools to achieve this, while also producing the desired cycling data.The project will kickstart ITS in cycling by:Implementing ITS solutions that directly increase the take-up of cycling (+10%) and reduce CO2 emission (-9%) within target groups Sharing cycling data and building a CyclingDataHub to share, analyse and visualize the data (100 data sets)Use collected data to get better insight in the needs of cyclists to drastically improve cycling policiesIntegrate the ITS methodologies and datasets into broader multi-modality, thus anchoring cycling in broader mobility policies and share this data for a multimodal futureThe demonstration of ITS applications and cycling data will allow others to use these cycling data for applications and policies. The effectiveness of ITS solutions will be evaluated, challenges identified and results disseminated to other regions.

Delivered Outputs (EN):

Output Indicator: Number of new and/ or improved green transport solutions adopted Total achievement to date: 23 Explanations: Current status, see also annex:2 ideas3 preparation10 in implementation (tendered etc)23 operational Level of achievement: Proceeding according to work planOutput Indicator: Number of enterprises participating in cross-border, transnational or interregional research projects Total achievement to date: 13 Explanations: No new enterprise cooperations Level of achievement: Ahead of scheduleOutput Indicator: Number of research institutions participating in cross-border, transnational or interregional research projects Total achievement to date: 5 Explanations: No new research institutions Level of achievement: Ahead of scheduleOutput Indicator: Number of organizations/ enterprises adopting new solutions by project end Total achievement to date: 5 Explanations: - Overijssel has integrated ITS for cycling in cycling policies, mobility and infrastructure. Relevant decision makers are now aware of the opportunities of cycling ITS and know better how to effectively implement them (in an integrated way).- Cycloon, a bike courier company in Zwolle and many other cities, has adopted the solution for traffic flow.- Deltion College: 25 Regular bikes from Deelfiets NL are operational- Steenwijkerland: 42 E-bikes from Deelfiets NL are operational Level of achievement: Proceeding according to work planOutput Indicator: Number of organizations/ enterprises informed about new solutions by project end Total achievement to date: 1365 Explanations: 31 new organizations informed, see total list of organizations informed.The organisations and enterprises that have been reached by the BITS project continued to grow in the current reporting period further expanding the BITS community. Online activities like newsletters, social media posts and BITS website promotion continued to perform well with very good levels of engagement, audience growth rate and reach. BITS presence at international events and conferences like ITS World Congress and EU Regions Week contributed to raise awareness about the BITS project among enterprises, public bodies, EU and national institutions, and stakeholder organisations. The contacts are tracked in a spreadsheet which is regularly updated by CIE and project partners as a living document. Level of achievement: Ahead of schedule
