How to Make Better Use of Existing Transport Capacity
Population growth forecasts show that in the next decade our road networks will be expected to carry twice as many vehicles as they do today. Yet political moves, such as the introduction of cycle lanes to arterial roads simply add to an already congested situation and do not offer any solution to the problem.
One approach, which will be demonstrated in this ground breaking presentation, uses AI-based modeling techniques to track vehicle movements across an entire city and build delivery schedules to fit movements into the least congested time slots. This approach can revolutionise the way routes are planned and optimise fleet use for a remarkably low investment.
As you will see, by taking a holistic approach to movement planning the opportunity to utilise ‘quiet times’ could hold the answer to the problems of increasing congestion, without the need to drive superhighways through green countryside or city centres.
