    ITF: Mobility and the value of time
    2/6/2020 3:22:21 PM
    Potential changes in individual mobility practices and use of time induced by technologies is examined in Mobility Practices, Value of Time and Transport Appraisal , a report from the International Transport Forum. Value of time is closely tied to the reliability of travel time, the comfort of travel conditions and other specific characteristics of the journey, which may affect utility during travel.


    Sustainable Multimodality in Urban Regions
    10/2/2019 6:28:09 AM
    Ways to organize existing transportation systems to enable sustainable multimodality is explored in a report from the World Road Association (PIARC). This report identifies the complexities faced by road administrations in various countries. It is available for no fee after logging onto the site.


    Assessing the Potential Advanced Alternative Fuel Volumes in Germany in 2030
    9/27/2019 1:48:38 PM
    The volume of advanced, non-food-based fuels that could potentially be produced in Germany are estimated in Assessing the Potential Advanced Alternative Fuel Volumes in Germany in 2030 , a report from the International Council on Clean Transportation. It is possible that Germany will reconsider its current set of biofuel policies, potentially extending and increasing its targets to 2030 or introducing new policy measures.


    Proper certification of heavy duty vehicle fuel consumption
    8/28/2019 11:53:43 AM
    Procedures for carbon dioxide certification in heavy duty vehicles are discussed in Comparison of Aerodynamic Drag Determination Procedures for HDV CO2 Certification , a report from the International Council on Clean Transportation. This report describes how aerodynamic drag is calculated, identifies opportunities for improvements, and provides recommendations for further carbon dioxide and fuel consumption certifications.


    The Benefit-Cost Analysis Behind Proposed Rollback of the U.S. Light-Duty Vehicle Efficiency Standards
    7/5/2019 5:04:01 AM
    The International Council for Clean Transportation has released a report that reviews the benefit-cost estimate to roll back the U.S. light-duty vehicle efficiency standards for 2020–2025 developed by two U.S. agencies. A benefit-cost analysis is required for any significant federal regulatory proposal, and this specific proposal would eliminate the need to improve vehicle fuel efficiency after 2020.


    Improving Transport Planning and Investment Through the Use of Accessibility Indicators
    3/31/2019 6:51:17 PM
    The International Transport Forum has released a report that summarizes a workshop about improving transportation planning and investment through the use of accessibility indices. The development of accessibility indicators may help increase authorities’ capacity to track effectiveness of transportation and urban development policies in terms of prioritizing investment to enhance access to opportunities, especially for vulnerable groups.


    Assessment Process for the Condition of Unsealed Roads
    3/29/2019 6:47:38 PM
    The New Zealand Transport Agency has released a report that addresses the data required to quantify the performance and maintenance needs of unsealed road networks in order to improve practices related to the asset management of unsealed roads. Traditional data collection using visual assessments was not sustainable given the fast-changing nature of unsealed roads. These roads are crucial to the tourism and forestry industries in New Zealand.


    Performance Benefits of Polymer Modified Bitumen Binders for Thin Surfacings
    3/28/2019 6:45:46 PM
    The New Zealand Transport Agency has released a report that identifies field data from New Zealand and overseas that support the expected performance enhancements gained from using polymer modified binders (PMBs) in thin surfaces. PMBs are often used in thin asphalt and chip seal surfaces with the aim of reducing temperature susceptibility and providing improved performance compared to conventional bitumen.


    Code of Practice: Automated Vehicle Trialling
    2/21/2019 8:07:34 PM
    The Centre for Connected and Automated Vehicles in the United Kingdom (UK) has released a report that outlines the laws for organizations that test automated vehicles within the UK. The code of practice that is outlined serves to facilitate the safe development and introduction of these technologies to the UK’s roads. Testing any level of automated vehicle technology is possible on any UK road if carried out in line with UK law.


    Commercial Vehicle On-Board Safety Systems: Summary and Conclusions
    2/15/2019 6:20:03 PM
    The International Transport Forum has released a report that analyzes the impacts of increased automation in the freight transportation sector. This report summarizes the findings of a roundtable. It determines how existing approaches can be maintained and when new solutions may be needed.
