The overarching goal of the Swedish transport policy is to;

• ensure a socio-economically efficient

transport provision, sustainable over the long term, for citizens and trade and industry across the country The main objective is:

• accessibility with the considerations of; Traffic

Safety, the environment and health

“Service quality”

▪

Ability to deliver the planned travel- and transport times, as well as timely provide useful information, in the case of unforeseen events (accident, etc...).

▪

Ability to handle the demanded or needed volume of travels and transports

▪

Ability to satisfy the needs of transports and travels for different categories of users

▪

Ability to prevent as well as effectively handle incidents that results in traffic disruption

Punctuality Capacity Robustness Usability

▪

Ability to minimize the negative impact, and support the positive development on climate, landscape, and health as a consequence of; design and operation of the transport system.

▪

Striving toward zero fatalities and injuries in traffic

100 ‘normal’ families will experience self-driving Volvo XC90s on public roads in Gothenburg

• The project was kicked off

in 2013, and the pilot begins in 2017

• Similar pilots will later be

run also in London and China

11

• Scania and Volvo both participated in

the European Truck Platooning Challenge, and are now preparing for multi-brand platooning projects in Sweden as well as within H2020

• The off-road domain is also attractive for

both companies. Volvo is currently piloting a self-driving truck in the Boliden mine in Kristineberg.

12

A national Strategic Innovation Program, bringing all stakeholders together to facilitate the next generation mobility services, based on connected and automated vehicles Test sites;

• Gothenburg
• Stockholm and
• Automated Highways

Kista: Urban ICT Arena

• 5G test arena
• April 2016: Self-

Area: 2000 acres Rural road: 5,7 km City area: 4 blocks High speed: 45,000 m2 Multi-lane: 700 m

Now with its own, dedicated 4G/LTE cellular network All in all, Sweden has excellent assets for all sorts of vehicle testing

16

The legal road to self-driving vehicles

• Proposal submitted March 31, 2016 for the regulation of trials using

self-driving vehicles on roads.

• Submit proposals for an introduction of fully or partially automated

vehicles on the road. To be reported no later than November 28, 2017.

(SOU 2016:28) The Swedish Transport Agency is collaborating with UNECE’s relevant WGs for international harmonization

17

Challenges and lessons learned

• Accessability/Mobility is more important than autonomous vehicles
• Pilots are crucial for end-user understanding and acceptance
• Cross-functional collaboration absolutely critical to success

18

Areas of cooperation

• Sweden has several links into relevant branches of the European

Commission

• The Swedish Transport Agency represents Sweden in the DG Move

led C-ITS platform work

• Several Swedish organizations are also actively involved with DG

MOVE, DG RTD and DG CNECT

• Sweden is well represented in EU-focusing platform organizations

such as ERTRAC, ACEA, EUCAR, ERTICO and CLEPA

• Sweden has contributed to ITF-OECD’s recent efforts on connected

and automated vehicle topics
