INTEGRATING SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY AND LOGISTICS WITH CITIZEN-CENTRIC INTELLIGENT SOLUTIONS FOR SAFE, SMART, GREEN, RESILIENT, AND INCLUSIVE CITIES

Objective

BIO-INTEL-MOB aims to revolutionize peri-urban mobility, logistics, and governance through AI-driven, citizen-centric, and climate-neutral solutions. Addressing fragmented mobility networks, inefficient logistics, and governance gaps, the project integrates Advanced Mobility Data Space (aMDS), Peri-Urban Mobility Hubs (PUMHs), Green-Safe Routing Algorithm (GSRA), bio-packaging logistics units (bioPLU), and Digital Twin ecosystems. By leveraging AI-powered risk detection, emission monitoring, real-time analytics, multimodal transport optimization, and VR/AR-enabled participatory governance, BIO-INTEL-MOB enhances urban-peri-urban accessibility and connectivity, reduces private car dependency by 35%, and optimizes multimodal transport efficiency by 35%. The project’s interventions will lead to a 30% reduction in urban-peri-urban congestion, a 25% decrease in logistics-related emissions and packaging waste. Further, BIO-INTEL-MOB will cut VRU-related accident risks by 35%, improve air quality and noise pollution by 20%, and reduce the human health impact of transport-related pollution by 30%. The project conducts large-scale pilot demonstrations in Rome, Cascais, Riga & Vilnius, alongside satellite pilots in Melsungen, Ciampino, Urla, and Rhodes, ensuring scalability and transferability. Through policy-aligned smart city governance (SCGo) with policy engine, citizen-voice-app and knowledge-hub, and AI-driven multimodal transport innovations, BIO-INTEL-MOB strengthens citizen participation in city planning by 40%, creating data-driven and participatory ecosystems. The project’s AI-driven models will ensure a 40% increase in participatory governance efficiency, 25% faster policy compliance processes, and a 35% improvement in co-designing of city policies and infrastructure. The outcomes contribute to the EU Green Deal, Digitalization Strategy, and Climate-Neutral Cities Mission, positioning peri-urban areas as resilient, connected, and low-emission living spaces.
