The transport system is adapting to new global realities – from climate
change to digitalisation. While reducing transport’s impact on the
climate is an urgent priority, transforming transport requires reliable
research. The EU-funded BE OPEN project will identify and put in place
mechanisms to achieve Open Access to publications, making their
underlying data findable, accessible, interoperable, reusable (FAIR) and
open where possible. Together with the European Open Science Cloud
(EOSC), these will be key factors in making transportation researchers
share, reuse and reproduce science. The project will bring together key
transport and open science-related communities and stakeholders in
Europe and beyond, to engage them in a dialogue on Open Science and
develop a roadmap for the implementation of Open Science modules.
