VERKKO will support the deployment of C-ITS services and digital road infrastructure at the national, regional and local levels to solve existing traffic problems. 50% of the VERKKO budget is allocated for C-ITS deployment for All in all, this will improve road safety and network throughput. In this way, we will enable clean, safe mobility on the TEN-T core, as well as comprehensive road networks, urban hubs and multimodal connections.
The modernisation of ITS infrastructure and the expansion of C-ITS services according to the requirements of the revised EU-ITS-Directive are essential for reducing accidents, ensuring road safety and making travel more efficient, safer, and sustainable.
FACILITATING INTERACTIVE TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT WILL ENABLE THE OPTIMAL USE OF THE ROAD NETWORK CAPACITY FOR THE MOBILITY OF PEOPLE AND GOODS.
VERKKO will focus on digital infrastructure deployments at various levels, ranging from individual traffic signal systems to traffic management centres, to the whole national road network infrastructure based on the maturity of digitalisation and the implementation needs.
THE APPROACH OF VERKKO TO C-ITS IS TO APPLY THE PRINCIPLE OF SHARING GLOBALLY TO BENEFIT LOCALLY.
VERKKO uses the C-Roads Platform specifications and expertise to ensure the European cross-border interoperability of C-ITS services to solve the major transport problems within the VERKKO region in an optimum way.
The key objectives:
A european C-ITS and digital infrastructure
- deploy C-ITS technologies and services across various regions
- create and enhance digital infrastructure to support C-ITS
- integrate C-ITS into traffic management Systems that combine traffic management with C-ITS
- implement innovative mobility technologies and solutions
- enhance Road Safety Measures for road users e.g., by deploying C-ITS on maintenance and police vehicles
- roll out intelligent road networks based on V2I (Vehicle-to-Infrastructure) and V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) communication technologies
