Highways England has awarded a US$46 million contract to Austria-based firm Kapsch TrafficCom to install the system at its regional control centre in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, which will then be rolled out to the rest of the country. The new technology will integrate a wide range of functions and manage the existing large quantity of different roadside devices. The sys

  • Predicting and solving future transport problems?
    August 10, 2012
    Can the future be predicted? With what accuracy can ‘predictive analytics’ be used to help anticipate demand? This is a relatively new science for transportation and over the next few years it will be interesting to see to what extent it can solve some common problems. Transportation authorities may be close to finding the golden chalice that is accurate prediction of how traffic will behave as congestion occurs. Predictive algorithms are not necessarily new, but the coming together of conditions needed for

  • Integrated corridor management 'to enhance travel efficiency'
    August 29, 2012
    New systems of software are coming together to form the technological backbone of a project that will apply practically to one corridor in Dallas, but influence travel across a wider area. Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) is the lead agency for an extensive Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) project in Dallas, covering an area stretching north east of downtown Dallas, 20 miles long by two miles wide. The corridor is defined loosely by the US-75 freeway and DART’s light rail ‘red line’. These are the theor
