How smart technology can change mindsets and powers the modal shift

Creating more sustainable, more efficient mobility systems isn't just a question of technology - it's also about mindset.

While we at Yunex Traffic develop cutting-edge solutions to support the shift from private cars to more sustainable modes of transport, real change can only happen when people are willing to change how they move. Encouraging a shift in behavior - toward walking, cycling, and using public transport - is just as crucial as building smarter infrastructure.

In this edition of our Monthly Mobility Moment, we take a closer look at both: the technologies enabling cities to manage multimodal traffic efficiently, and the societal changes needed to make greener transport the natural choice for everyone.

Let’s move forward - with the right tools and the right mindset.

What’s stopping people from choosing greener transport?

Private cars still dominate our roads - but if we want real change, we need more than just smart infrastructure. We need a shift in mindset.

We explore what holds people back from cycling, walking, or using public transport - and what it takes to inspire this behavioral change.

Technology that puts people first

To enable real transformation, we must tackle the root causes: car-centric infrastructure, safety concerns for vulnerable road users, and the lack of accessible alternatives. Yunex Traffic addresses these with a holistic technology portfolio:

• Mobility Management solutions that integrate all transport modes into a unified experience.
• Smart Intersections with universal AI-based detection and adaptive traffic control that prioritize people over cars.
• Bike & Pedestrian Solutions that offer green time prioritization and guidance through next green light strategies.
• Signal2X & Mobility Monitors that provide real-time multimodal routing, comparing time, cost, and CO₂ impact.

These tools don’t just move traffic — they move people smarter and more safely. Whether it’s a bike-friendly intersection, a connected mobility corridor, or an enforcement solution for low-emission zones, our technologies work together to make sustainable travel the most attractive choice.

Connected mobility starts here: OBU2X + RSU2X

What makes truly intelligent, cooperative transport possible? Communication — not just between vehicles, but between everything on the road. Our OBU2X (Onboard Unit) and RSU2X (Roadside Unit) are the enablers of this Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) ecosystem:

• OBU2X enables communication between cars, bicycles, emergency vehicles, and infrastructure — laying the foundation for safer multimodal mobility and even autonomous driving.
• RSU2X connects all road users in real time, providing cities with the tools to control, prioritize, and protect — from urban intersections to complex corridors.

This connected framework boosts safety, reduces delays, and improves transparency for all users. It’s the invisible infrastructure that makes the modal shift tangible.
