What if your daily commute could help prevent the next road accident? In Greece, the SOTERIA project has moved from a bold idea to a proven reality, transforming everyday routes in Chania and Igoumenitsa into data-rich road safety laboratories.

What if virtual reality could help adolescents understand traffic dangers before an accident happens? In Saxony, Germany, the SOTERIA project is combining immersive VR technology with a smart routing app to protect young road users.

By prioritising cycling in the European Union (EU) mobility policy, EU institutions and Member States are expected to increase financial investments to make cycling not only accessible but also safe. Of all types of road users, cyclists are the only road users among whom serious injuries and fatalities have increased over the past years.

As part of the SOTERIA project, Nommon are evolving their solutions to develop advanced decision-support tools that offer a comprehensive assessment of urban mobility safety risks.

SOTERIA is proposing a novel approach to predict the probability for a street intersection to be a hotspot, i.e., an area with a high risk of accidents involving VRUs.

ELTA is actively participating in the groundbreaking EU-funded project SOTERIA, which is dedicated to accelerate the achievement of the EU’s Vision Zero goals—eliminating fatalities and serious injuries among vulnerable road users (VRUs).

Over the past few years, there has been a notable rise in the number of vehicles on the roads in European cities, accompanied by a parallel increase in the availability of micro-mobility services.

In bustling cities, vulnerable road users, including pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists, face unique challenges while navigating busy streets.
