Welcome on CATS website!
CATS [City Alternative Transport System] is a Small Scale Collaborative Project funded by DG Research of the European Commission.
The project started on January 1st, 2010 and it will run until December 31st, 2013.
CATS' aim is the full development and experimentation of a new urban transport service based on a new generation of vehicle.
Its major innovation is the utilisation of a single type of vehicle for two different uses: individual use or semi collective transport.
This new transport service is aimed at filling the gap between public mass transport and private individual vehicles.
It gathers ten partners in 5 different countries in Europe and Israël divided among transportation systems manufacturers, research institutes, services providers and end users.
