HertsLynx CAM On-Demand

如果我们要在交通部门实现我们的脱碳目标，那么我们就必须寻求创新，以填补公共交通网络的空白。如《未来交通：城市战略》第8条所述；新的交通服务必须设计为作为公共、私人和多种交通方式相结合的综合交通系统的一部分运行。HertsLynx AV将分析在赫特福德郡梅兰兹商业园地区提供CAM按需公共交通服务的潜力。该地区是物流和配送市场领先者的大本营，拥有650多家企业，员工超过2万人。在英国，CAM和按需运输(DRT)的结合还没有被考虑过，这可能会为英国第一个投入运营的此类计划铺平道路。我们坚信，CAM服务或按需服务本身不会在效率和运营方面取得运输业所需的收益，但结合在一起是一个巨大的进步。我们认为这些默认情况下与电动或氢气驱动链齐头并进。我们选择这个地点的原因是，这个地点距离圣奥尔本斯火车站约6英里，距离哈彭登火车站约7英里，没有直接的公共汽车连接。目前，从圣奥尔本斯乘坐两辆公交车大约需要50-60分钟，而开车需要15分钟。目前，哈彭登站没有合理的公交线路。因此，半灵活的自动公交服务可以提供从贝德福德-布莱顿到商业园区的Thameslink服务的重要链接。我们希望在可行性研究中增加按需调度的元素，允许自动巴士在商务园区灵活运营(沿着合适的走廊)，然后变成通往圣奥尔本斯站或哈彭登站的固定服务。

If we are to achieve our decarbonisation targets in the mobility sector, then we must look to innovation to fill the gaps in the public transport network. As described in principle 8 of the Future of Mobility: Urban Strategy; New mobility services must be designed to operate as part of an integrated transport system combining public, private and multiple modes for transport users.HertsLynx AV will be analysing the potential for an CAM On-Demand Mass Transit service in the Maylands Business Park region of Hertfordshire. The area is home to market leaders in logistics and distribution with more than 650 businesses that employ over 20,000 people. The combination of CAM and On-Demand Transport (DRT) has not been considered in the UK at a specific location and this could pave the way for the first of a kind UK scheme being operational.We strongly believe that CAM service or On-Demand Service on their own won't make the gains in efficiency and operation that the transport sector needs but combined are a huge advancement. We consider that these go hand in hand with Electric or Hydrogen drive chain by default.The reason we have chosen this site is that the site is located around 6 miles from the St Albans Train Station and 7 miles to Harpenden Train Station with no direct bus link. Currently, the journey from St Albans takes around 50 - 60 minutes using 2 buses, whereas the car journey takes 15 minutes. There is currently no reasonable bus link from Harpenden station.Therefore, a semi-flexible autonomous bus service could provide a vital link from the Thameslink services from Bedford - Brighton which currently doesn't link to the business park.We would look to add an element of On-Demand scheduling into the feasibility study which would allow the autonomous bus to operate flexibly in the business park (along suitable corridors) and then turn into a fixed service to St Albans Station or Harpenden Station.
