Enabling Technologies. 2.2.2.2.1 Connected Vehicle Environment There are corridors and intersections in Columbus that have high crash numbers with vehicles, bicyclists and pedestrians. In addition, there are several corridors that are congested that result in poor mobility conditions for emergency vehicles, freight and transit buses. The CVE corridors were selected based on regional crash data, enhanced transit services, recent infrastructure investments and relationship to other projects. For example, the CVE corridors have 17 intersections in the top 100 regional high-crash intersections. The anticipated outcomes of the CVE project are to enhance safety and mobility throughout the city's transportation system utilizing CV technologies and applications with an emphasis on congested and high crash intersections and corridors. Safety applications are intended to be installed on multiple vehicle types including transit buses, first responder vehicles, city and partner fleet vehicles and private vehicles. Applications will be deployed to ensure emergency vehicles and the Central Ohio Transit Agency (XXXX) Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) fleet can utilize signal prioritization when needed to ensure safety and efficiency. While the CV applications the city plans to deploy will be identified as part of the planning phase of the systems engineering process, examples of strategies include: • Enhanced emergency vehicle pre-emption that reduces delays at signalized intersections for emergency vehicles responding to incidents and other emergencies • Transit signal priority that reduces delays at signalized intersections for transit vehicles helping to improve transit operations • Red-light safety applications for improved safety of pedestrians and drivers of vehicles at signalized intersections • School zone warnings that increase school zone visibility and alert drivers of posted speeds, helping to improve safety The Performance Measurement Plan establishes the measures and methods through which the goals and objectives of the CVE project will be evaluated to determine the project’s effectiveness of meeting the Smart Columbus vision and mission. The City of Columbus has identified the following preliminary objectives to evaluate the measurable impact the CVE project is intended to provide: • Reduce emergency response times • Improve motorist’s adherence to red lights • Improve adherence to speed limits in school zones • Improve reliability of transit vehicle schedule adherence • Reduce truck wait...

Enabling Technologies. Infrastructure components in the topsectors Dutch Techcentre for Life Sciences (DTL) The Dutch Techcentre for Life sciences (DTL) is founded by - and builds on - six national scientific centers with a strong technological basis in: (i) next generation sequencing (Centre for Genome Diagnostics), (ii) proteomics (Netherlands Proteomics Centre), (iii) metabolomics (Netherlands Metabolomics Centre), (iv) advanced microscopy (NL-BioImaging AM), (v) bioinformatics (Netherlands Bioinformatics Centre), and (vi) systems biology (Netherlands Consortium for Systems Biology). DTL builds on best practices and expertise developed in these centers of expertise. DTL makes widely available high-end enabling technologies (expertise, services, equipment and training) in the life sciences in general and in the field of health-related R&D of academia and industry in particular. DTL expertise and infrastructure is accessible for research institutes, hospitals and industry, with a specific proposition towards SMEs. DTL encompasses a broad network of expertise and facilities that is already involved in major public-private life science programs, and therein well-connected with over 70 SMEs and large companies. DTL combines its technology portfolio around the functional and structural molecular organization of living systems. It has the capacity to integrate the analysis at the DNA/RNA level with subsequent levels of molecular organization and regulation Regiegroep Life Sciences & Health (proteins, metabolites, supra-molecular (and cellular) structures). DTL thus offers integrated technological approaches in next generation sequencing (NGS), proteomics, metabolomics and advanced microscopy, and includes bioinformatics and systems biology to streamline the analysis, integration and stewardship of life science data. DTL develops dedicated technology applications for industry and academia, responding to the needs of the healthcare system as detailed in the LS&H topsector roadmaps. Of course, novel technologies will emerge in the international fields to complement (or replace) the high-end technologies of today. DTL includes an active policy to continuously scout, develop and select emerging technologies that fit in the DTL portfolio. With a primary selection of the international (scientific) quality of the associated community, selected new technologies must have a strong potential within the LS&H and other topsectors, and be able to adopt the DTL strategy to set up enabling technolo...
