The mobility system is facing complex challenges: In the future, it should not only be CO 2 -neutral and demand-oriented, but people from all population groups should also be able to get around carefree and safely, whether by bicycle, car or on foot. Unfortunately, we are still far away from the so-called Vision Zero (no traffic fatalities) at the moment. The protection of vulnerable road users is another important building block of the traffic turnaround. A building block that will always be involved, regardless of whether cars in the future will be electric or run on hydrogen, or whether urban traffic will be heavily dominated by public transport. Intelligent technical and infrastructural solutions are more in demand than ever. Digital innovations can contribute to achieving Vision Zero.
With the current whitepaper "On the way to Vision Zero - digital innovations to protect vulnerable road users", the "Topic Platform Networked Mobility" of the Zentrum Digitalisierung.Bayern offers an introduction to the topic of what contribution digital innovations can make to achieving Vision Zero.
