C-Roads Germany is a pilot project for the introduction of cooperative intelligent transport systems (C-ITS). These systems enable wireless communication and data exchange of vehicles among each other and with the traffic infrastructure. By providing information on current traffic conditions or warning road users of dangers, C-ITS make a decisive contribution to safe and sustainable mobility.
C-Roads Germany started in 2016 as one of 18 national pilots in Europe. C-ITS services have been set up, operated and tested in real traffic environment throughout various project phases and different pilot locations in Germany. Since 2019, the focus has been on C-ITS deployment in urban areas and the urban pilots (urban nodes). From 2025, the number of urban pilot sites will be increased from originally three to six.
By contributing their technical and organisational framework concepts developed for the introduction of C-ITS into the high-level C-Roads platform, the project partners support a harmonized and coordinated rollout across Europe and C-ITS services are provided in the same manner and quality across borders.
