Abstract: Abstract The automation of vehicles will just be a part of the mobility ecosystemEcosystem of the future. ConnectivityConnectivity may be another important pillar in that ecosystem. In fact, recent research shows that connectivity can even facilitate the movement towards automation of vehicles. One of the projects contributing to this research is the Australian Integrated Multimodal EcoSystemAustralian Integrated Multimodal EcoSystem (AIMES) (AIMES). AIMES is conducted in the city-center of Melbourne and connects vehicles to everything. The aim of this project is to increase safety among autonomous vehicles and other traffic participants and to enhance traffic flows. With the enhancement of traffic flows, AIMES also researched how connectivity can prevent congestionsCongestion and reduce carbon emissionsCarbon emission. Further, AIMES is a living laboratory and thus providing urban transport research that is more innovative, relevant and far reaching than ever.
