Barcelona hosted the 2nd meeting of CIMEC-CODECS joint City Pool

CIMEC (Cooperative ITS for Mobility in European Cities) and CODECS (COoperative ITS DEployment Coordination Support) are both EU-funded projects addressing the deployment of cooperative Intelligent Transport Systems and Services (C-ITS). CIMEC and CODECS engaged together with a wide group of urban and regional authorities on the topic of C-ITS, in order to build up knowledge on the opportunities for C-ITS deployment as well as the related business models and technical issues. The CIMEC-CODECS City Pool is supposed to meet on three occasions in 2016 and 2017. It is coordinated by Polis, partner of both the projects.

The second meeting of the City Pool on C-ITS and cities took place on 14 November 2016 in Barcelona. This workshop was organised jointly by the CIMEC and CODECS projects and was hosted by CODECS partner RACC. The aim of this event was to enhance awareness of C-ITS among urban transport practitioners and to promote discussion on the potential for C-ITS deployment in the urban environment. More than 50 people attended the workshop of which one half were made up of representatives of local government.
