Since its creation in 2005, Lyon Urban Truck &

Bus (LUTB) remains the only competitiveness

cluster in Europe with the ambition to respond

to the challenges of meeting the growing

needs for collective mobility and freight

transport in urban environments.

Among the major challenges to be addressed,

programmes need to be devised to ensure the

use of diverse energy sources, respect the

European criteria for air quality, optimise delivery systems by

maximising vehicle occupancy, in everyday driving as well as

infrastructure use (public roads, delivery areas, supply-chain

platforms…), so as to minimise the impact on public space and

increase the appeal of public passenger transport vehicles.

Collaborative projects validated by Lyon Urban Truck & Bus -

carried out by industrial firms, researchers, end users and local

authorities - will provide societal, economic, industrial and

environmental solutions driving forward the transport systems

of our towns and cities.

The technological roadmap devised by LUTB cluster members

presents a systemic view of the goals to be attained by 2030 so

as to deliver optimised urban mobility schemes that will be

beneficial to all.

In order to achieve these objectives and meet the five major

challenges outlined in this paper, certain technological,

organisational and economic impediments must first be

removed. This is the very purpose of the work done by different

players of the cluster and illustrated in the following pages via a

number of R&D projects conducted and tested in the

Rhône-Alpes region.

GEODE

Description. The Mobiville project plans to develop a mobile multimodal guidance service for urban public transport.

Objective. Make travel easier for public transport users by giving them real-time access to different types of information:

- Option to use different modes of mass transport (bus, underground, tramway, funicular railway) with real-time updates on network disturbances as well as station stopping timetables.

- Condition of the public fleet of self-service bicycles (Vélo’v), with real-time information on the location of the stations nearest the geographic position of the user of the service (GPS), as well as the number of bicycles and empty racks available for returning a bicycle in each station.

MOBIVILLE

Description. This bus prototype questions the architecture of ultra-long buses with a view to satisfying the growing demands for flexibility from operators as well as the demand for clean modes of transport.

Objective. Reduce consumption as well as gas emissions and noise pollution: By combining the reduction gained from hybrid technology (25 % potential) with the benefits of modularity (30 % potential by resizing the vehicle for off-peak hours), the objective is to move towards a level of reduction to achieve as much as 50 % in consumption and emissions.

Description. The GEODE project plans to develop a number of hybrid commercial vehicle demonstrators.

Objective. Reduce local pollutant emissions by as much as 30 % - Attain low noise emission levels:

all-electric mode, power off when idling - Save fuel and lower CO2 emissions: as

much as 35 % depending on applications and usage

MODULO

Description. This project develops the concept of the « freight bus »: a truck approaches the city centre with several containers of freight for different delivery areas. Each container is off-loaded in « transshipment » zones and loaded onto light commercial vehicles for delivery to the last kilometre. Telematics solutions make work easier for drivers: mission supervision, optimised navigation, customer informed of an imminent delivery.

CityLog also defines the « Bento Box » concept, a modular left-luggage system that partitions parcels delivery so as to avoid unsuccessful deliveries when the customer is absent.

Objective. Reduce the number of delivery vehicles entering the city centre; reduce the number of unsuccessful deliveries; navigation assistance (shortening journey times); synchronise the phases and people involved in the supply-chain process; promote a system of massified transport together with final distribution by vehicles of suitable dimensions.

CITYLOG

Description. Geofencing-MD plans to manage the transportation of dangerous goods in urban areas by developing an telematics tool that can be used by all the players involved (shippers, transporters, public authorities, intervention teams etc.). Accordingly, Geofencing-MD will apply the aviation concept of approaching the « control tower » in an airport to a dangerous goods transport vehicle approaching an urban area.Geofencing-MD will create a virtual social network between the different players involved in dangerous goods transport management.

Objective. Real-time geolocation and traceability of dangerous goods; inter-vehicle and vehicle-control tower communication; efficient management of crisis situations.

GEOFENCING MD

Description. The Mosart project takes into account the spatial and collective dimension of individual transport choices that are typically based on the desire to optimise travel times. With this in mind, the MOSART project assimilated and developed the notion of accessibility (isochronous or gravitational) to help understand the medium and long-term impacts of transport policies.

Objective. Develop tools identical to those used for real-time optimisation in order to assist medium and long-term public (and private) decision-making. For example, webmapping will be used to provide accessibility maps for the next five or ten years, taking into account not only infrastructure projects but also the probable evolution of congestion on the roads and in public transport.

MOSART

Description. The ALF project investigates the implementation of a delivery space booking system supported by a shared, real-time information system.

Objective. Propose the implementa-tion of a delivery space booking system via a booking platform, an information system, new regulations and an information campaign.

ALF

PRUDENT VI

Description. This project seeks to develop a new urban supply-chain system involving vehicles equipped with optimal functions for the haulier, the driver, the customer, the infrastructure operator and the city’s "supervisory" authority.

Objective. Test innovative urban delivery solutions using vehicles integrating new communication technologies to stay in touch with infrastructures:

- Lower noise emissions by as much as – 6 dB (A) for night-time deliveries

- Greater fuel savings and less air pollution - Enhanced security

- Increased operational efficiency

CAtalyseurs tRois voies Améliorés pour VEhicules Lourds et LEgers fonctionnant au gaz naturel

(Enhanced three-way catalysts for light and heavy natural gas vehicles)

Very little research has been done by catalyst manufacturers and automobile constructors to study clean-air catalysis applied in natural gas vehicles (NGV). In order to counterbalance this technological deficiency, current commercial catalysers used for NGV applications contain precious metals that treat unburned methane (CH4) emissions as they exit the engine (very stable molecule, hard to oxidise). Consequently, the CARAVELLE project seeks to develop an optimised after-treatment system for NGV vehicles. Optimisation entails improving the performance of these catalysers, at the same time reducing their precious metals content and limiting their aging over time. The goal is not only to ensure continuity of the natural gas activity which, due to its low emissions levels, has always offered considerable environmental benefits, but also to present natural gas as an interesting alternative in energy diversification.

CARAVELLE

CICLAMEN

FUN 2

Description. This project is developed along a number of avenues:

- Hybrid powertrain - Lighter vehicles

- Increase accessibility by improving the internal architecture of the bus (aisle width, lower seat position, easier access for passengers in wheelchairs)

Objective. Increase passenger vehicle capacity by 8%.

CLEAN, THRIFTY BUSES

Description. The project utilises onboard vehicle functions and those hosted in control centres to develop tools to recognise transportation as an interactive system by linking vehicles to the roadway infrastructure and to transport supervi-sion centres.

Objective. Extraction of the data exchanged between the different players of the system will be beneficial to all, so as to:

- Optimise transport costs (vehicles and infrastructures)

- Improve safety on the roads - Reduce congestion - Reduce pollution

VIF 2

Description. This project will test a device to dynamically allocate traffic lanes to a special category of vehicles (public transport, emergency vehicles, delivery vehicles, etc.) so they can move around easier during chronic traffic congestions. The current intention is to devise the methodology to implement future trials in the Lyon conurbation.

Objective. Create temporary bus lanes along existing public roads so as to optimise the flow of public transport and priority vehicles in the city.
