Sustainable Transport
What should be realized

Universal Concerns•

Environmentconscious•

Urbanization/TrafficCongestion
Aging Society•Fundamental desire for mobility

Mobility for people

Mobility for goods

・Anyone・Anywhere・Comfortable（ w/ little anxiety of health)・Anything・Anywhere
・Convenient(w/ little environ. impact)

Solutions & services

Five viewpoints to be considered
Traffic flow
・Flow control（Inter-/Inner-city）

Mobility Modality
・Efficiency among modality

Environment
・Electrified/electric vehicles

Energy・ EMS with collaboration with vehicles＋

Private Transport
basedon passenger car/trucks＋

Focusing either side according
to the city’s characteristics

Short range &personalmobility＋

Public Transport（Railway,LRT,BRT etc）

Health care
・Health monitoring during movements

Concept of Smart Transport Cloud
Evaluation & Planning
Smart transport cloud• Gathering information from vehicles• Integrating information for monitoring

Traffic management centerssensing data

Roadside units
Mobile devices•
Traffic information•
TabletTraffic control•
Smart phone, etc. ••Area charging , etc.

1) Traffic volume : location, vehicle speed, etc.
2) Traffic condition : passage breakage because of obstacles lied on road, etc.
3) Detecting obstacle vehicles : parking along streets, driving along dedicated lanes, etc.
