As urban traffic is fundamentally complex and multi-faceted, so are inevitably any research initiatives that aim to investigate associated research questions thoroughly and comprehensibly. In order to provide a superordinate structure for these research efforts, on the basis of which individual research activities can be coordinated and synthesised, the project Urban Driving (abbrev. UF for “Urbanes Fahren”) was initiated. By defining a common terminology, data formats and research methodology for the different research activities within UR:BAN, the multiple results across the UR:BAN research initiative could be aggregated and summarised in form of core messages. The following chapter provides an overview of the activities and key results of the project UF, thus introducing a meta-perspective of urban traffic research.
