BARTOLOMEO GIACHINO, ADVISER TO THE MINISTRY OF THE ITALIAN INFRASTRUCTURE AND TRANSPORT

GIACHINO: “THE MINISTRY MUST SUPPORT ITS WITH ITS OWN FUNDS”

During your speech on last July at the TTS Italia conference at the chamber of deputies, you said you would suggest to Maurizio Lupi, the Italian Ministry for transport, to start a work table on transport and logistics, did you do that? What did the Minister answer?
Yes i did. it is important to work on logistics for a better mobility both of goods and people. i think that a work table to define priorities would be helpful for the economic recovery of Italy. it would be necessary to arrange the rule on port logistics systems, by entering the recognition of the role of the regions ports and, allow two up to three major ports the trial of a major financial autonomy; to repair the standard on minimum costs with the agreement between client and road transport and accelerating the establishment of the single customs office.

Smart mobility and smart cities are fundamental nowadays. What are the plans from the Minister on ITS development?
The Ministry is already carrying out an important awareness action and promotion of the whole innovation sector that must be the basis for the revival of logistics in our country. For the growth of the country, it is necessary to recover the competitiveness: we always ask more to private to develop new business models but on the other hand the public sector should imagine new possibilities of governance based on the contribution from ITS.

The National ITS plan was supposed to be sent to brussels one year ago. When it will be officially launched?
The plan was born to ride the development of ITS technologies in a perspective of growth up to 2020. The national strategy for ITS must identify the most effective operations for optimizing resources and achieve the results require at National and European level. On this point, our country has encountered some problems that still do not allow to collect benefits of technology implemented, including the high fragmentation of experiences in the sector and the resulting inability to integrate the different systems. The government has otherwise well clear priorities and is acting daily to completely adopt the plan.

As undersecretary for transport you already know how ITS are fundamental for the development of freight transport. Which actions are still missing? What are the indications from the government?
Particular attention should be given to the promotion of large systems for the mobility of goods through rail and water without forgetting the road transport especially for the last mile; the air transport which is crucial for our country, for example for the Made in Italy; the precision engineering. Its must be able to support this process and help Italian companies to become competitive at worldwide level thanks to a greater efficiency, quality and punctuality. The ministry must lead this action by promoting with its own funds specific projects such as eCall, black box and platform for the logistics.


Who is Bartolomeo Giachino. He was born in Piemontese and was a director in the Italian Society for the Mont Blanc Tunnel, manager in E. Breda, adviser in Fiat, director in TNT and executive member of CNEL. In 2008 he was appointed by Silvio Berlusconi Undersecretary for Transport, which he held until 2011.

TTS ITALIA TO DEPUTEES OF TRANSPORTS COMMISSION: "TECHNOLOGIES ARE FUNDAMETAL FOR A BETTER LOCAL PUBLIC TRANSPORT"

Shorten the waiting time at bus stops, improve the regularity of the public means and accelerate the speed of public transport in the city. Manage fleets more efficiently, increasing the comfort of the journey, making bus and subway transportation more accessible and attractive for commuting in urban and suburban areas. The improvement of local public transport also passes through the extensive use of the solutions ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems). This is an indication that TTS Italia, provided on last 12 September to the Transports Commission of the Chamber of Deputies during a hearing within an investigation on local public transport.

The technological revolution of public transport should go through several steps. First, service contracts should provide precise indications on minimum ITS services that operators should ensure. Monitoring systems allow to improve fleet use, while the electronic ticketing would give the possibility to fight the tariff evasion. The implementation of video surveillance and alarm systems would help to raise the level of safety on board and in stations, while the mobile information would give greater confidence to users on the usability of the services. Finally, the regulation of traffic through the traffic light priority and surveillance of lanes would be valid solutions to increase the average speed of public transport.

"With the application of these solutions there would be benefits for the entire system - said Rossella Panero, President of TTS Italia - For passengers who have an adequate service, but also for companies of local public transport and for public administrations. Not to mention the important effects on the economy of the country: to give impetus to the development of this market is equivalent to giving greater certainty of return on investment for companies in the sector that would result in a positive impact on employment levels of young highly qualified."

For all the above interventions is essential to ensure the financial sustainability for both the phase of initial investment and for the phase of management and maintenance, so as to avoid what has happened in recent years, which have unfortunately seen the exit from the market of some excellent supplier companies in the industry. In the ongoing situation of crisis which the sector of the local public transport is experiencing, the definition of ad hoc incentive mechanisms is an absolute priority to cover investments to be made. In other words, you must define rewarding mechanisms that can provide both local governments and public transport companies a strong incentive to invest on the adoption of ITS.

The new challenge of autonomous driving vehicles by VisLab
During the PROUD-Car Test (Public ROad Urban Driverless-Car) 2013 event, on July 12, in Parma, a vehicle moved autonomously and in total safety on a mixed traffic route (rural, freeway, and urban) open to public traffic, with nobody on the driver seat. Recently other similar systems have been realized by other researchers and auto makers all over the world, but this has been the first time that nobody was in the driver seat, to underline the system robustness. The vehicle is not remotely controlled, but on the contrary it is full of sensors to perceive the surrounding environment; the on board systems interpret the traffic situation e react accordingly, acting on steering and changing speed in autonomous mode (with no human intervention). The vehicle has been realized by VisLab from Univeristy of Parma, TTS Italia ordinary member. This experiment, organized by University of Parma - Dep.of Information Engineering, VisLab, and DISS (University Center for Advanced Research on Road Safety), was made possible thanks to the cooperation of: Direzione Centrale della Motorizzazione Italiana, Ministero dell'Interno - Polizia Stradale, ANAS, Comune di Parma, Polizia Municipale, and Camera di Commercio di Parma. The most complex part of this experiment is the handling of real traffic, both in a highway setting (ring around Parma) and in a urban setting (downtown Parma). An element that greatly increased complexity is the need to negotiate roundabouts (of different size and shape), underpasses, pedestrian crossings, artificial bumps, traffic lights, since these articulated situations require a deep environmental interpretation by the on-board system.

e-Call: synergies opportunities between public-private for citizens safety

The European Union aims to make it compulsory on new car the eCall system for automatic dialing the European emergency number 112 by October 2015 (European Directive 2002/22/EC of 7 March 2002). The systems aims to provide security to its citizens in the event of an accident by communicating the location of the vehicle even if the driver is unconscious. In Italy and in Europe Viasat, since the eighties, is a pioneer in the use of technology Infotelematic with a service based on the location of geo-referenced resources through 4 Operation Centers with more than 120 employees working 24 hours 24, 365 days a year (it is at an advanced stage a project that involves the construction of a new operations center in Venaria Reale, near Turin, with a capability of 240 workers in three shifts, 24 hours a day, and a positive impact in terms of growth employment in Piemonte), can handle today more than one million calls and over 300 thousand customers. The news of the pilot project launched in Lombardia on the single emergency, confirms that the road taken first by Viasat to offer assistance, protection and security to its customers is the inevitable evolution whichis also fully embedded among the purposes of innovative projects related to the Smart Cities. "Viasat annually invests around € 2 million in research and development, technology infrastructure and operations centers to provide its customers cutting-edge solutions that enable reductions in theft and accidents, as well as significant savings on premiums of insurance policies (legislation "black box)," explains Domenico Petrone, president and founder of Viasat. "Open solutions that can connect with leading institutional electronic platforms (Sistri, Uirnet, CCISS, e-Call, etc..) and, in the case of the proposals of Viasat Division Fleet, promote the efficiency and optimization of logistics (eg . reducing fuel costs, management refund excise, etc.)."

"ICT for co -modality: the way forward" - COMPASS final conference - 13 November 2013 - Rome
COMPASS (Optimised CO-Modal PASSenger Transport for reducing carbon emissions) will held its final conference "ICT for co-modality: the way forward" in Rome on 13rd November 2013 for presenting its results and focusing on ICT solutions for co-modality. TTS Italia is one of the project partners.
COMPASS started in November 2011, and looked at the existing information available on passenger journeys in Europe, drawing extensively on work that has been undertaken in previous European-funded projects. Existing sources of information and data have been used to identify and describe the key trends in mobility patterns in the 21st century, based on current and future passenger needs. Existing sources of travel survey data have been exhaustively researched, with a particular focus on the role of ICT in data collection and management, and recommendations will be made on improving data collection in passenger transport to meet future needs. COMPASS is in the process of identifying ICT-based solutions that have the potential to improve co-modality in passenger transport and these potential solutions will be assessed through a number of case studies. The assessment of ICT solutions for improved co-modality is being based on a framework that emphasises the contribution of each solution to reduced carbon emissions. There will also be an investigation into how best to present solutions for improved co-modality to those stakeholders in transport operations and planning who will be responsible for their implementation, to ensure the best possible take-up of recommended solutions. Finally COMPASS will derive conclusions and recommendations for national and EU transport policy and actions.
The final conference in Rome will present some of the project's key findings as well as present some of the most interesting solutions found, and will seek feed-back from the representatives of policy makers and other stakeholders as well as researchers and the transport industry.

TTS Italia at the POSSE project Workshop - 7 October - Milan
TTS Italia will be one of the speaker of the project POSSE (Promoting Open Specifications and Standards in Europe) Workshop to be held in Milan on the 7 October within the event Move.App Expo. The Workshop of the POSSE project, supported by TTS Italia, will present and discuss the European experience on standardization and mobility as well as the Italian public administrations point of views in the mobility sector. The Workshop will also investigate the relationship between ITS and Open Data. The Intelligent Transport Systems are now widely used in many cities and regions to manage traffic and support travelers through various schemes such as, among others, the control of traffic on specific areas of the city, the information in real time, the traffic light priority for public transport, ticketing smart card, the management and addressing the parking area. ITS are often developed in the absence of standards and specifications at European level. The European project POSSE, will undertake a range of activities to facilitate the exchange and sharing of knowledge and experience on how to develop, implement and maintain open specifications and standards for ITS and traffic management. POSSE will draw up good practice guidelines covering the processes and considerations required for the specification and implementation of open ITS systems and standards drawing on lessons learnt and tips from two existing open specification frameworks, namely UTMC and OCIT/OTS. The POSSE project runs from January 2012 until December 2014. POSSE was set up to raise awareness of the need for open specifications and standards for road-based transport management and to share the experiences of existing open system frameworks in Europe. A central objective of the project is to build the capacity of transport authorities to implement open specifications and standards. To this end, POSSE will facilitate knowledge transfer between the existing open standards and specifications frameworks (UTMC in the United Kingdom and OCIT/OTS in the German speaking part of Europe) and public authorities wishing to move towards open systems. These public authorities, referred to as the POSSE Transfer Sites, are the cities of Burgos (ES), Pisa and La Spezia (IT) and Klaipeda (LT), the Norwegian Public Roads Administration and the Czech Transport Research Centre (CDV).

TTS Italia at Smart Mobility World and Workshop "Connected Car"
During the conference Smart Mobility World, held in Turin on 26 and 27 September, organized by ClickutilityTeam, GL events Italy-Lingotto Fiere and Innovability, with the support of the Chamber of Commerce of Turin, City of Turin, Piemonte Region and Confindustria Piemonte, in partnership with TTS Italia, our Association participated in the session "The Smart Mobility: enabling factor for the development of Smart City and for the growth of the automotive and logistics" represented by its President Rossella Panero. TTS Italia also participate through a desk dedicated to it members and to anyone interested in the Association. In addition, within the Smart Mobility World, it was organized by TTS Italia on 25 September, the international Workshop on "Connected Car". As the world's roads become increasingly congested, drivers are seeking smarter vehicles and transport systems that can give them real-time information about traffic jams, weather conditions, road works and parking availability. At the same time, governments are calling for cars to be able to automatically alert emergency services as soon as a vehicle is involved in an accident and to be equipped with tracking systems to combat theft. The automotive industry has the potential to play a transformative role in the connected future by delivering new services such as on-demand, in-car entertainment, low-cost pay-as-you-drive insurance, location-enabled security features, real-time fleet management, etc. At the same time, the automotive industry can enhance core vehicle propositions, such as improving vehicle brand image and customer relationship management and delivering a safer and more enjoyable driving experience. The global connected car market will be worth €39 billion in 2018 up from €13 billion in 2012, according to new market forecasts. Over the next five years, there will be an almost seven fold increase in the number of new cars equipped with mobile connectivity designed to meet demand among regulators and consumers for safety and security features, as well as infotainment services an d navigation aids. The rapid development of the global connected car market will be driven in part by positive regional regulatory action in Europe, Russia and Brazil. To achieve this market potential, the automotive and mobile industries need to work closely together to deliver scalable, secure, interoperable, ubiquitous and intuitive connected experiences. Connected Car technologies can support various degrees of automated driving, increase car comfort and safety and therefore road safety. The aim of this session has been to know the state of art of the main initiatives regarding connected car at international level and to encourage the exchange of idea with the main stakeholders of the sector. Both representatives of ITS National Associations at worldwide level and representatives of the industry sector will be involved to share their national strategies to promote this sector. Several TTS Italia members participated in the Workshop as speakers: Autostrade Tech, Magneti Marelli, Viasat Group. Among international speakers: ITS Taiwan and ITS Argentina.
