The first CENIT Magazine is Out: A Curated Review of Innovation In Transport

Nov 1, 2022

CENIT, CIMNE’s Innovation Unit in Transport, has launched the first issue of its annual magazine, bringing together cutting-edge research and analysis on the transport challenges shaping our world. The publication reflects the breadth of work underway across the unit, spanning from maritime sustainability to urban mobility and emerging logistics technologies.

This issue discusses the multifaceted dimensions of transport innovation, assembling contributions from researchers and experts working at the intersection of climate action, technological advancement and operational efficiency. These pieces examine how the sector can address some of its most pressing issues: decarbonizing ports, optimizing urban delivery networks, managing traffic through intelligent speed management systems, and leveraging artificial intelligence to transform last-mile logistics.

This issue emphasises the commitment of CENIT to tackle one of the most significant challenges of the 21st century: delivering efficient, sustainable transportation to communities and equipping policymakers with research-driven knowledge.

Articles in this issue
    • Road to Port Sustainability
    • Tackling Climate Change in Ports
    • Towards the Blue Economy
    • Variable Speed Limit System
    • Projects on Smart Deliveries
    • Impact of Urban Mobility Trends
    • AI and Last-Mile Logistics
