ORCHESTRA project logoThe European project ORCHESTRA is improving the coordination of public transit. As a project partner, IKEM will work on judicial and economic questions and evaluate potential traffic management concepts.

The EU-project “ORCHESTRA – Coordinating and synchronising multimodal transport improving road, rail, water and air transport through increased automation and user involvement” officially kicked off on May 27th. In cooperation with fifteen partner organisations from six different countries, IKEM commenced the research and innovation action project implementing a modern traffic organisation.

The project ORCHESTRA is simplifying the usage and coordination of public transit. To achieve this goal, the project will design multimodal traffic management concepts which will be tested in two pilot sites in Italy and Norway.

IKEM will work on judicial and economic questions. We are focussing on analysing national and european legal frameworks and developing adaptation suggestions. Furthermore, IKEM is working on data protection and researching potential business models for the traffic management concepts.

ORCHESTRA is a three-year RIA – research and innovation action project – funded by the Horizon Europe 2020 program.
