纽约市的 "零愿景 "计划在对车队安全的承诺和企业支持方面在美国是独一无二的。全市行政服务部?安全车队过渡计划是纽约市的战略,旨在使市政车队符合市长德布拉西奥的 "零愿景 "目标,即到2024年消除城市中的交通死亡和严重伤害。纽约市互联汽车试点为私人车队提供了一个明确的机会,以支持这一目标。很少有 "零愿景 "城市有类似的方式让企业积极主动地参与这项工作。
While civic leadership is absolutely essential to achieving Vision Zero, ultimately it will not happen without robust participation from all sectors, especially businesses. Knowledge sharing and public-private partnerships like this one have long been hallmarks of the United Nations. In addition to bringing connected vehicle technology to new use cases, private sector participation in the pilot will help chart the way to bringing proven safety interventions to scale.
?New York City?s Department of Citywide Administrative Services (DCAS) is proud to partner with NYC DOT and represent New York City?one of only three test sites in the nation?as part of the U.S. DOT?s Connected Vehicle Pilot Program. Through Mayor Bill de Blasio?s Vision Zero Program, we are reducing traffic deaths and making the city?s streets safer for everyone. We believe the Connected Vehicle program will take us even further and make our fleets and streets even safer,? said DCAS Commissioner Lisette Camilo.
?As part of the Vision Zero initiative to eliminate traffic deaths and serious injuries, the New York City Department of Transportation has several initiatives to make the vehicles in our fleet and from the MTA and the Taxi & Limousine Commission more intelligent when it comes to being alert about nearby traffic conflicts,” said Mohamad Talas, Director of System Engineering at NYC DOT. “These initiatives include the Connected Vehicle pilot in cooperation with the US Department of Transportation, which uses wireless communications technology in vehicles and on infrastructure to alert drivers to roadway hazards and help them avoid collisions. We thank the Department of Citywide Administrative Services and Together for Safer Roads for their leadership on fleet safety.?
?Our coalition of socially-minded businesses salutes the leadership of Mayor de Blasio and his administration in eliminating traffic deaths and serious injuries,? said Dave Braunstein, President of Together for Safer Roads. ?By fostering this public-private partnership, TSR?s members can learn from the City?s best practices and share our network?s with New York and cities around the world.?
?Anheuser-Busch is a leading member of the New York City business community, and it?s our responsibility to invest in programs that make the roads safer for all,? said Cesar Vargas, Vice President of Legal and Corporate Affairs at Anheuser-Busch. ?We are proud to be the first private sector company taking part in the NYC Connected Vehicle Pilot, and we look forward to sharing data and learnings with the City and researchers.?
?Working towards the goal of zero fatalities and injuries from road traffic crashes requires concerted efforts and partnerships from all sectors. We applaud the City of New York?s Connected Vehicle Pilot that brings together public private partnerships and innovative measures in meeting the shared goal of vision zero? Alex Mejia, Director, Division for People, UNITAR.
“Along with smart transportation policy and safe street designs, connected vehicle technology is an important tool in the effort to eliminate traffic deaths,” said Transportation Alternatives Interim Executive Director Ellen McDermott. “We’re pleased to partner with Together for Safer Roads, the Department of Citywide Administrative Services and the Department of Transportation to make sure that the vehicles using New York City streets are as safe as they possibly can be.”
Mayor Bill de Blasio launched New York City?s Vision Zero Program in 2014, and it is becoming a national model. Since 2013, traffic fatalities have dropped 34-percent to the lowest level since record-keeping began in 1910. Like many cities in the United States and around the world, traffic is a leading cause of injury death in New York City, it is an especially likely way for school-aged children and seniors to die, and vulnerable road users make up more than 50-percent traffic fatalities. New York is demonstrating that traffic deaths are preventable.
The Connected Vehicle Pilot Program, managed by the United States Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) Intelligent Transportation Systems Joint Program Office (ITS JPO), is a national effort to deploy, test and activate mobile and roadside technologies and enable multiple connected vehicle applications. The pilot is focused on developing and deploying more than 15 safety applications to provide in-vehicle warnings to motorists behind the wheel. New York City is one of three connected vehicle pilot sites. The others are Tampa and Wyoming.
