Delivering projects! Enhancing Public Transport and Micromobility Project Manage- ment with Cloud-Based Modeling and Transparent Engagement 
Adam Lynch | March 5, 2026, 12:30pm | Location: Kongress Area A - hall 1

Cloud-based modeling frameworks and interactive dashboards are transforming how public transport providers, micromobility operators, and agencies manage projects by enabling timely, cost-effective delivery while fostering transparency and trust with stakeholders.

Transparent, accessible engagement with stakeholders is critical to maintaining project momentum. Aligning regional, municipal, and operator stakeholders early builds support and reduces challenges that can delay implementation. Adam will introduce an integrated approach that improves quality control, demonstrates responsiveness, and builds public trust while aligning projects with community goals. By embedding transparency, early alignment, and feedback loops into project lifecycles, cloud-based tools help transit providers and agencies deliver projects on time, on budget, and reflective of accessibility goals.

Enhancing PT with real-time data and AI: the UPPER project
Daniele Tiddi | March 4, 2026, 1:30pm | Location: Kongress Area B - hall 2

Developed for the EU project UPPER, U-SIM.live is a simulation-based operational tool designed for real-time decision-making, during daily PT operations tasks of the operation control center (OCC). The tool focuses on the principle of human-centricity. To do so, it leverages passenger count data and multimodal mobility simulation. Its goal is ensuring a human-centric and efficient PT ecosystem. 

IT-TRANS comes during the project final year, and Daniele will present how the test cases from cities and operators in Rome, Valencia, Budapest, and Lisbon, will be experimenting the effectiveness of the tool.
