impact evaluation

The NEXT-ITS 2 project contains a number of measures deployed on the NEXT-ITS 2 corridor and in traffic management centres in order to move from local traffic management towards coordinated and cross-border management of the whole corridor. The objective has primarily been to evaluate the costs and impacts of the services deployed i.e. how the measures contribute to reduction in travel time, accidents and emissions from road transport.

The goal of the L3Pilot project is to demonstrate and assess the Level 3 ADFs in real or close-to-real use contexts and environments in the pilots. However, the pilot nature of the field tests will bring some practical limitations to the possibilities of how to conduct them as described above. To receive meaningful and valid results on impacts of the ADFs, it is important to carefully consider the principles underlying the approach to collect the evaluation data.

The NEXT-ITS 2 project contains a number of measures deployed on the NEXT-ITS 2 corridor and in traffic management centres in order to move from local traffic management towards coordinated and cross-border management of the whole corridor. The evaluation performed has covered the services deployed or enhanced by the road authorities involved during the period 2015-2017, also including some measures completed fully in early 2018. The objective has primarily been to evaluate the costs and impacts of the services deployed i.e.

The evaluation performed for NEXT-ITS2 corridor has covered the services deployed or enhanced by the Nordic road authorities during the period 2015-2017. The objective has been to evaluate the costs and impacts of the deployments. The impacts of the NEXT-ITS2 measures cover a quite large road network, about 25 000 km. The evaluation was carried out as an ex-ante evaluation.
