Aninver Development Partners announced a strategic partnership with Sweroad (Swedish National Road Consulting AB) to jointly develop and deliver intelligent transport systems (ITS), Road Asset Management (RAM) and road safety Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) that address the mobility challenges of today’s cities and regions.

This new collaboration will focus on creating a specialized PPP development vehicle aimed at deploying small-scale, high-impact solutions—such as adaptive traffic signals, digital enforcement systems, and AI & data-driven safety technologies—through innovative public-private partnership models.

The need is urgent:

• 56% of the global population already lives in cities—a figure projected to reach 70% by 2050
• Road traffic accidents cause over 1.3 million deaths per year worldwide
• Urban congestion costs cities billions annually in lost productivity and contributes heavily to emissions and air pollution

By combining Sweroad’s global leadership in transport engineering and road safety with Aninver’s expertise in PPP structuring, digital platforms, and strategy—including the use of InfraPPP World (a business platform by Aninver)—this partnership offers cities the tools, models, and support needed to accelerate smart mobility transformations. The joint platform will help cities and public agencies attract private investment and deploy the latest technologies to improve travel times, reduce emissions, and make roads safer—quickly, sustainably, and at scale.

Aninver invites transport authorities, public transport agencies, or region/city governments to share their urban mobility challenges at aninver@aninver.com
