Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Safety and resilience are fundamental requirements of transport and mobility, and as such are key objectives of the Sustainable and Smart Mobility Strategy of the European Commission, adopted in 2021 as part of the EU Green Deal. Research and Innovation is crucial to achieve EU transport safety and resilience objectives. Projects funded by the European Framework Programmes perform the background analysis and develop the technologies and the means for safety and resilience management. They also propose improvements for regulations and conceive procedures for their enforcement. Finally, they provide insights on human behaviour and develop innovative training to raise awareness and promote a safety culture. EU research and innovation therefore addresses all three pillars of safety and resilience: technologies, regulations and human factors, in a collaborative and inclusive framework. The aim of this report is to analyse the main trends, challenges, and achievements of European research and innovation in Transport Safety and Resilience, and to give recommendations on future initiatives. The report uses the Transport Research and Innovation Monitoring and Information System (TRIMIS) database to identify relevant projects.

Book excerpt: Transport safety is a major societal challenge for Europe, with still alarmingly high figures for deaths and serious injuries. Since the early 2000, the number of annual fatalities on the European roads was cut by 54 % but statistics for 2015 show stagnation of this downward trend. Consequently, safety and security in all modes of transportation are a top priority for the European Commission. A coherent portfolio of research and innovation activities funded through FP7 and Horizon 2020 are crucial elements in the drive for ensuring safety in all transport modes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global infrastructure is at a crossroads. Sustainability and climate-resilience imperatives, new geopolitical headwinds, technology and connectivity issues, as well as the ongoing reconfiguration of global value chains, all call for a rethink in how infrastructure is designed, built and maintained. Leading world economic powers are envisaging new infrastructure plans that could fit in new trade and industrial strategies, with the ultimate goal to increase sustainability, economic competitiveness and resilience. Meanwhile, the use of digital technologies entails new risks for the security of critical infrastructure. How are global value chains changing, and how does this affect infrastructure? How could more resilient infrastructure transform economies? How to enhance the quality and sustainability of new and existing infrastructure? And how to safeguard security in critical infrastructure?
