Hyundai Motor Group Proposes Optimal Mobility Solutions Based on Traffic Demand Predictions in JTC’s Jurong Innovation District
JTC, which is a government institution in charge of planning, development and management of industrial complexes and related facilities in Singapore, provided data about JID’s traffic status, geographic information and working population. Based on the data provided by JTC, the Group determined that the gap between public transportation supply and demand will gradually expand in the region, especially over the next 10 years. In addition, the Group also conducted interviews and surveys with over 1,300 residents and occupant employees within the JID district. Based on the results, the Group and JTC were able to gain an understanding of the preferences towards future mobility means, such as demand-response mobility, robotaxis, roboshuttles and personal mobility as well as people’s perception towards public transportation. Subsequently, the Group derived an optimal mobility service operation plan to cope with the increase in population and mobility demand in JID for the next 10 years. The Group virtually evaluated each mobility service and concluded that roboshuttles were the most optimal solution, considering user convenience and traffic flow. Through this project, the Group has experienced smart city service planning capabilities considering urban infrastructure and transportation demand. Based on this experience, the Group now has better insights on developing similar future mobility solutions in other neighboring countries to maximize customer satisfaction and operational efficiency through new mobility services.
