Abstract

To encourage travellers to make use of different modes of transport, the switch from one means of transport to another has to be smooth and easy. This requires reliable and efficient communication between the different transport modes. The TRIDENT project is developing mechanisms for the sharing and exchange of common data to enable and support multi-modal services. TRIDENT is a 30 month research and development project co-funded by the European Commission under the DG IST Programme. The goal of the project is to develop the common mechanisms that are required for sharing and exchanging data between transport operators and authorities about different modes (bus/tram/metro, rail and road). It will also investigate and propose solutions for organisational and strategic issues hampering travel intermodality. This will lead to proposals for new standards as well as to recommendations supporting the implementation of systems based on the project's results. For the covering abstract see ITRD E114174.
