Year-round active mobility, winter walking and cycling, snow and ice management, winter maintenance and road safety, pedestrian and cyclist behaviour, route choice, surface friction, cycling rolling resistance, heated pavements and winter cargo bike performance. Research includes the BEVEGELSE programme, NTNU SnowLab, field experiments and winter mobility technologies.
The Road, Rail and Transport research group at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) conducts research on transport infrastructure, road user behaviour, traffic safety and sustainable mobility. Its research includes winter walking and cycling, the effects of snow and ice on route choice and pedestrian movement, the operation of cargo bikes on winter roads, and technologies for improving winter infrastructure. The group combines field experiments, behavioural research and infrastructure engineering to support safer and more reliable year-round mobility.
