It was an inspiring afternoon that explored the role of digitalisation and innovation in urban mobility, with keynote insights from the City of Stockholm and the City of Gothenburg. Mikael Iivari from the City of Gothenburg presented the EU's strategy for smart and sustainable mobility. He shared insights for the path towards a digital future and data-driven maintenance in the City of Gothenburg. Kristine Bull Sletholt from the City of Stockholm presented lessons learned around climate change and how to enable a fossil-free future for the City of Stockholm. She also spoke about the work of STOLT (Stockholm Local Transitions), a platform that creates conditions for the city to offer forms for testing innovative solutions together with other parties in a wise way.

We also had the pleasure of diving into current research on:

🚲 Bicycle traffic dynamics

🛴 E-scooter and public transport integration 

🔋 Mobile charging for electric buses

📊 Data-driven traffic estimation

🚨 Incident impacts and detection

📍 Smartcard-based visitor profiling

🧭 Regional travel forecasting

A great showcase of collaborative efforts between KTH, LiU, and VTI to push transport research forward!
