Abstract	Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) allow the exchange of vehicle information between vehicles or between vehicles and the infrastructure. Together with sensor units installed in the vehicles themselves, or in road-side infrastructures within the concept of smart cities, they allow the development of applications targeting the safety of urban mobility. In this work we introduce two-wheelers (2wheelers), a Vulnerable Road User, and we research an approach for their safety in the roads. For this purpose, we first define a set of mobility scenarios representative of the interactions that may occur between 2wheelers and the other vehicles, together with the definition of the communication technologies available to each element. We propose a 2wheelers' safety multi-technology communication and sensing system designed to support mobile, edge or cloud-based operations, depending on the scenario in hands. Evaluation tests, performed in a real-world environment using an autonomous shuttle as the vehicle and a bicycle as a 2wheeler, have shown the operation of the safety platform in the different scenarios with different communication technologies, sensors and their fusion, and how the safety approach is able to improve the safety of 2wheelers in the road. © 2023 IEEE.
