Filip Vanhove
ResearcherFilip Vanhove is a civil engineer specialising in traffic management and macroscopic traffic models, including the calculation of pollutant and noise emissions. By analysing traffic statistics, he gained in-depth insight into the situation on Belgian highways and developed expertise in handling large datasets. In recent years, he has focused primarily on emission modeling for road traffic, shipping, rail, and aviation.

TML collected and analysed emission measurements from cars and trucks in the port of Antwerp.
Study on the extension of the low emission zone in Ghent
In this study, we investigated the most suitable options for extending the current LEZ from Ghent to a larger area.
LEZ Port of Antwerp
This project investigated the environmental and social costs and benefits of introducing a low emission zone (LEZ) in the port area of Antwerp.
Low emission Zones in Antwerp: Feasibility Study
TML conducted a feasibility study for the introduction and management of low emission zones in the city of Antwerp.
