#H2020RTR21 European Conference concluded in Brussels

For the first time, the CCAM Association joined the European Commission, ERTRAC, and EGVIAfor2Zero to organise the H2020RTR European conference on results from road transport R&I in H2020 projects.

The fifth edition #H2020RTR21 gathered more than 300 participants on 29-30 March in Brussels, in plenaries and through 20 parallel sessions. Representatives of 66 EU-funded projects dealing with road transport research shared their results and engaged in lively discussions with the audience.

Participants learnt about projects’ achievements, how they tackled hurdles and resolved challenges, and what the next research steps are in essential areas for road transport: Green Vehicles, Urban Mobility, Logistics, Intelligent Transport Systems, Safety, Automated Road Transport. The conference delivered a holistic view of how the European research scene is moving forward in these fields, bringing benefits to the environment, economy, and European society overall.

Several sessions were particularly relevant for the CCAM stakeholders, considering that the CCAM Partnership, even though established under the Horizon Europe Programme, will build on the results from the Horizon2020 projects. During the session called “Introducing Connected Automated Mobility in real traffic conditions”, presentations of L3Pilot, ENSEMBLE, SHOW, and HEADSTART proved that live demonstration is the way forward for the CCAM technologies uptake.

Access here to the presentations and replays from the event.

The report summarising the main points raised in each session of the #H2020RTR21 European Conference is now available. You can download your copy!

We are looking forward to seeing you next year!
