Feasibility Study for Transport and Travel Data Management on the A2 M2 Connected Vehicle Corridor

Tender description

The pace of technological development in road transport- particularly around the clear trends towards increasingly connected and information-rich transport - means that transport will change significantly in the coming decades. These developments offer major potential benefits for the future safety, capacity / efficiency, reliability and environmental performance of our transport networks - as well as implications for the design, construction, operation and management of transport infrastructure. The Department for Transport is undertaking a feasibility study to support the delivery of the Government's long-term vision for roads as set out in the Road Investment Strategy - to pilot a cooperative-ITS (C-ITS) Corridor on the Strategic Road Network (SRN). This study will provide recommendations on the best technical option(s) to pursue in relation to the identification and application of potential dataset sources, and data management systems, in order to develop new services and provide data management for the A2 / M2 Connected Vehicle Corridor (the "C-ITS Corridor").
