SAFER engaged in new expert group on Cooperative, Connected and Automated mobility, initiated by the European Commission

Sep, 17 2019

The European Commission has initiated an expert group on Cooperative, Connected and Automated Mobility (CCAM) with the task to provide advice and support to the Commission in the field of testing and pre-deployment activities for CCAM.

One of the main motivations is to reap synergies among the participants and their efficient co-operation towards ensuring that the promotion of CCAM is carried out in a non-fragmented manner. In this context the advice of this platform will also feed the research programmes in the field of CCAM, most notably the preparatory work on the European partnership to be created under the coming European multiannual financial framework. In this work, Ingrid Skogsmo has been assigned to represent ECTRI, and Magnus Granström and Mats Rosenqvist represent EARPA (Mats also represent Volvo Group). A first workshop was held in Brussel Sept 9th.
