NICCAL connected and automated logistics testbed network

Partially verified listing. The NICCAL-specific CAM Testbed UK page could not be retrieved. Accessible NEAA material supplies a general enquiry route and a separate completed P-CAL project report, but does not establish NICCAL’s exact current identity, testing capability, trial locations or external access.

This is a partially verified listing under the imported NICCAL network label. NEAA’s current contact page publishes a general organisation enquiry route. Its report dated 21 April 2026 describes the completed P-CAL project and autonomous movements in a controlled area of the Port of Tyne, with broader port deployment still to examine. Those project results are not a verified NICCAL testing offer. Exact NICCAL identity, capability, equipment, trial locations and access remain unverified after the specific source could not be retrieved.

What to confirm with the facility

  • The 21 April 2026 NEAA report describes P-CAL as delivered and reports a demonstration in a controlled area of the Port of Tyne. It identifies broader port operations and multiple vehicles as subsequent work. The report does not allocate the project’s vehicles, communications or port infrastructure to NICCAL or establish a current service available to external users.
  • NEAA’s Washington Business Centre address is a general contact office. It is not treated as a physical NICCAL testing site, and the published SR5 3NZ office postcode does not verify the imported SR5 3NS testbed-contact description.

Sources and review

Reviewed by Arc on 1 October 2026 in Europe/London. The NICCAL-specific CAM Testbed UK request timed out, as did the preserved 30 September request. These access failures are evidence gaps rather than proof that information or services are absent. Fresh NEAA contact and P-CAL completion pages were retrieved successfully. The 21 April 2026 report supplies completed-project context only, with no NICCAL capability or equipment transfer. NEAA contact-page metadata records publication on 21 July 2021 and modification on 24 February 2022. The P-CAL report’s publication and modification timestamps are both on 21 April 2026. The imported NICCAL label is retained, exact network identity remains unverified, and imported services, equipment, standards, specific contacts, site address and map coordinates are cleared. This partial listing emits no facility, operator or Service schema.

  1. North East Automotive Alliance general contact page

    North East Automotive Alliance · Reviewed

    The page publishes enquiries@northeastautomotivealliance.com and a Sunderland office at Washington Business Centre, 2 Turbine Way, SR5 3NZ. It does not identify NICCAL, an exact test location or a testing service. Original page metadata records publication on 21 July 2021 and modification on 24 February 2022, distinct from the 1 October 2026 retrieval and review.

  2. NEAA P-CAL completion report, 21 April 2026

    North East Automotive Alliance · Reviewed

    Published on 21 April 2026, the report says P-CAL was delivered and demonstrated autonomous movements in a controlled port area. Broader multi-vehicle port operations are subsequent work. It does not name NICCAL or establish bookable NICCAL equipment, a universal test environment or current external access. Exact publication/modification metadata remain separate from 1 October retrieval.
