Dutch policy: ’Smart Mobility, Dutch Reality!’ 1)
Encouraging the use of existing products and services
2)
Responsible introduction of a new generation of vehicles
3)
Future-ready infrastructure and road management
4)
Careful utilisation of data exchange and connectivity
5)
From trials and pilots to large scale deployment
6)
Challenging Rijkswaterstaat to adapt to the changing world
Smart Mobility, Dutch Reality
Letter from our Minister to the Dutch Parliament 4 October 2018: ‘Smart Mobility, Dutch reality’.
•
Traditional Road Side Systems are outdated – Technical and economical – High maintainance costs – Outdated architecture – Transition from road side to in car
Why iRSU’s?
•
2014 – 2017 Development new Road Side System
– New architecture concept – Seperation of hard and software – Modular system: new building blocks can be added
– Communication road side in car

Development iRSU •
WKS 1.3 hybrid
Development in 3 I/U/P phases: –
Innovation Phase (2016)
–
Uniformation Phase (2018)
–
Production Phase (2022-2030)
•
National Deployment Based on Business Case 2018
•
Part of the Uniformation Phase was a roll out of the first 109 iRSU in the Province of North Holland
•
First Decisions 2018-2022 –
Replace 4102 RSU’s by 2950 in 2022 -2030
–
Replace Halogen Signalers by Led
–
Make use of (redundant) Optical Fiber
–
2023/2024 recalibration of 2018 Business Case 5
iRSU Programm Why a national Programm? •
Combine forces within Rijkswaterstaat
•
Realize output (as much as possible) within the framework
•
Realize outcome: nessessary changes both in developments and in organizational working processes
•
Reach out for international cooperation

Main Challenges •
Combine National and Regional Efforts
•
Combine Programms (optical fiber, service providers, C-ITS Next etc.)
•
Deal with financial challenges
•
Deal with transition towards less road side systems
•
Make the connection with European developments 11
