The INTEND project is a one-year research project funded by the European Union as a part of the Horizon 2020 research programme. It aims to reinforce the competitiveness of the European transport sector in the long term, based on the development of a research agenda for a forward-looking transport sector. The overall objective is to deliver a study on the research needs and priorities of the European transport sector through systematic data collection.

Goals

INTEND will deliver an elaborated study of the research needs and priorities in the transport sector utilizing a systematic data collection method. Megatrends that will be affecting the future transport system will be identified using the Analytical Network Process to ensure validity of the results. Finally, INTEND will develop a transport agenda that would pave the way to an innovative and competitive European Transport sector.

Objectives

The specific scientific objectives are those that shape the work program development in support of answering the research questions and achieving the macro-level objectives. They are grouped into three thematic areas each with supporting objectives and criteria for assessment: 1. Analysis of the transport research landscape 2. Definition of megatrends and their impact on research needs 3. Identification of the main transport research needs and priorities

'''Results ''' The results will encompass:

-The Transport project synopses handbook that will present future transport technologies across the four modes with an outlook of 2020-2035,

-The Identification of Megatrends and impact assessment of Megatrends and policies,

-The identified Key transport concepts of the future,

-A Sketch of the future transport system,

-A forward looking EU transport agenda: a blueprint on transport research needs,

-Online tool on future transport developments (Transport Synopsis Tool).
