VIDEO: Lunch & Learn – Different impacts of shared and autonomous vehicles

Friday, December 10, 2021

On the 9th of December Drive Sweden arranged a Lunch & Learn with Trivector and the City of Gothenburg, during which the the attendees got to take part of findings from the Eldsjäl project. The results included different scenarios on how shared autonomous vehicles can affect the transport system.

As the traffic situation in metropolitan areas is becoming increasingly strained due to rapid population growth, more transports of people and goods and increased competition for urban space, several functions are under pressure. At the same time, measures to limit the impact of traffic on the climate are becoming increasingly urgent. How should Gothenburg and other growing cities be able to provide proficient access to effective mobility solutions and at the same time promote sustainable travel?

Eldsjäl has carried out traffic analysis and held dialogue with users to add to their simulations in the cities of Gothenburg, Mölndal and Partille. The results highlight the importance of how different mobility concepts are applied in order for them to become part of a sustainable solution for the transport system. 

During this event Fredrik Larsson, City of Gothenburg and Lennart Persson, Trivector showed different scenarios from the study. Josephine Darlington moderated the event.

The project came to an end earlier this year, read more about it and see the final report here.
