Green Light Optimal Speed Advisory (GLOSA) is a Day 1 C-ITS signage application, enabled by the C-ITS service “Signalised Intersections”. The application utilises traffic signal information and the current position of the vehicle to provide a speed recommendation in order for the drivers to pass the traffic lights during the green phase and therefore, reduce the number of stops, fuel consumption and emissions. The distance to stop, the plans for signal timing and the speed limit profile for the area are taken into account to calculate the speed recommendation displayed to the driver. GLOSA service is provided through ETSI G5 into the on-board computer of the vehicle or via mobile network into a smartphone application. In the era of CAVs, it would be useful for cities, various stakeholders, and transport planners to assess the societal impacts of such an application in an urban area and attempt to evaluate the benefits in relation to the relevant costs.</p
