About IMOB
The Transportation Research Institute (IMOB) is active in the fields of transportation and road safety and focuses on transportation behaviour. We do this by studying the interaction between behaviour, infrastructure and technology. This interaction is complex, but the insights it provides allow us to predict mobility flows and make traffic safer. In carrying out these activities, we of course constantly come into contact with other disciplines such as health, climate, tourism, etc., which enables us to have an impact on society. which enables us to have an impact on society, both socially and economically.
