New open call: Safe and sustainable use of small vehicles

Tuesday, December 13, 2022

Do you have an idea about how small vehicles can be used to a greater extent and in safer ways? Then do not miss our new open call that offers funding for you to explore and develop your idea as a project! The purpose of the open call is to drive innovation for a smarter, safer and more sustainable use of small vehicles.

Personer använder sig av hyrcyklar, elsparkcykel och kollektivtrafik.

Smaller vehicles have the potential to reduce congestion in the transport system and new types are constantly reaching the market. But the use raises many questions about both goods logistics and passenger transport. What is required for the vehicles to be used safely, securely and efficiently? Can digital technologies such as shared data from connected vehicles and drivers be used to improve planning for these vehicles? How can road safety be increased and the conditions for micro-deliveries improved?

Drive Sweden sees great opportunities to spur innovation in this area with the help of a targeted call. During the preparatory work, our network was invited to provide input to the design of the call, see results and presentations from that meeting here (in Swedish).

We are also arranging three information meetings about the open call, find more information about them here.

By small vehicles we mean smaller road vehicles that may only be driven at low speeds.
