TY - JOUR PY - 2015// TI - Automated vehicles and the rethinking of mobility and cities JO - Transportation research procedia A1 - Alessandrini, Adriano A1 - Campagna, Andrea A1 - Site, Paolo Delle A1 - Filippi, Francesco A1 - Persia, Luca SP - 145 EP - 160 VL - 5 IS - N2 - The project CityMobil2 has carried out a forward-looking exercise to investigate alternative cybermobility scenarios, including both niche and large-market innovations, and their impacts on European cities and their transport systems. The paper describes the current status of and main trends in automated vehicles, a preliminary vision of the future city with mobility supported mainly by automated vehicles, and freight distribution. The expected positive impacts derive from the development of car sharing, the reduction of space required for parking vehicles, the possibilities for older people or those with disabilities to use cars, the enhancement of safety, and the improvement of efficiency of the transport system.
