Optimization of space allocation for multi-modal transport systems

Summary

To improve mobility, urban space should be allocated spatiotemporally for travellers that are willing to use different modes of transport (shared mobility, autonomous vehicles,  public transport). Some streets could admittedly be reserved (similarly to dedicated bus lanes) but more effort is needed to create fully connected sub-networks that provides access to all parts of the city. Another  alternative would be time segregation, fully time-based (capacity is allocated to only one class of vehicles at a time), or hybrid (spatial but time-dependent) with temporary reserved lanes. How to develop real-time feedback-oriented control strategies for infrastructure management and how to integrate with operational strategies for the individual modes that are controlled by different operators is an additional challenge.
