EU-funded Horizon 2020 project to improve traffic and mobility management

About us

In the DIT4TraM project, Distributed Intelligence and Technology for Traffic and Mobility Management, twenty knowledge institutions, companies and governments are investigating and testing for the first time whether this ‘swarm intelligence’ approach is feasible for traffic and transport. Our focus is on individual travelers, connected cars, smart bicycles, and intelligent traffic control systems. Simply put, we are exploring how we can get these agents to communicate and interact locally in such a way that they automatically contribute to the greater goal of a smooth and safe traffic flow. DIT4TraM runs from 1 September 2021 to 1 September 2024. Our goal is to develop control concepts and algorithms based on swarm intelligence for the widest possible range of applications during this project period. We’re including different modalities, from pedestrians to cars to subsystems. And we focus on different use cases, from local traffic control to regional traffic and mobility management. To test and develop all new knowledge and insights in practice, six pilot studies in four EU countries are organized: in France (Bordeaux), Greece (Glyfada and Athens), the Netherlands (Amsterdam and Utrecht), and Spain (AP-7 freeway). With these pilots we test the gains to be achieved for traffic flow, safety and liveability and look at the effects on reliability and resilience.
