At urban intersections, safety of Vulnerable Road Users (VRUs) such as pedestrians and cyclists in connection with heavy goods traffic is a relevant issue. In the project INTERSAFE-2, Volvo Technology is developing a traffic safety application for heavy goods vehicles in urban intersections, that is specifically addressing safety of VRU during right turning manoeuvres. In this paper, an overview of the subsequent steps in the development is given, including an overview of sensor set-up, the communication and map units, the function development of the traffic safety application and the driver interface.
