Graham Jarvis investigates how automated and connected mobility can influence the roadmap to intelligent traffic management.
PwC’s Connected and Autonomous Vehicles – Revolutionising Mobility In Society report finds that over 50% of all surveyed respondents feel that their mobility is restricted and yet the consultancy firm argues that “greater mobility could improve access to education, employment and healthcare”.
Its research reveals 43% of people would use a connected and autonomous vehicle (CAV) if one was made available to them. So, key to revolutionising urban mobility in today’s society has to begin with, as PwC argues, creating a positive image of the technology to “encourage its broad acceptance among the public”. The public awareness campaign is crucial to the technology’s adoption and to increase the push for the appropriate digital infrastructure to support smart urban mobility.
