The City of Hamburg is working intensively on the digitalization of mobility with the aim of making transport safer, more efficient, and more environmentally friendly and meeting the needs of the people of Hamburg. During an interactive Tour in the heart of Hamburg you will experience how Intelligent Infrastructure and Digitisation of Urban Traffic can help making traffic more environmentally friendly and comfortable. There will be shown different point of views via tablets in the e-bus, explaining both the front-end and the backend of the core projects of Hamburg’s ITS strategy from the fields of urban traffic detection, smart parking, construction site planning, traffic management and control. The impacts of these projects can be experienced live during the tour and they will be presented by a moderator. For example, Hamburg’s test track for automated and connected driving (TAVF) is characterized by heavily loaded city and district streets in the city center of Hamburg. As a result, complex framework conditions exist for the trials of automated driving functions, safety assistance systems and environmental sensors.

The Logisitcs Experience Tour will show projects on the water, under water, on land and up in the sky focused on ITS logistics-solutions. The group will be picked up for a bus ride through the harbor. During the ride there will be two narrative threads via tablets in the bus and a tour guide, explaining both the front-end and the back-end of Hamburg’s ITS strategy from the fields of Port and Logistics at Kattwykbridge and HHLA Container Terminal Altenwerder – CTA. In the end, home:PORT ed. drone:PORT aims to show different drone demonstrations on water, on land and in the air. Autonomous vehicles will demonstrate tasks of transport, surveillance and other services, individually and in combination of these transport modes. Visitors take the “ITS ferry” at Elbe river back.
