Traffic Technology Services (TTS) and 139 TransCore have taken a step closer in bringing traffic signal information into the vehicle.

TransCore will integrate its TransSuite advanced traffic management systems (ATMS) software into TTS’ Personal Signal Assistant to help motorists minimise the time spent at red lights. TransSuite’s ATMS map interface provides real-time traffic data, which is used by TTS to predict signal switch times. This data is then applied by OEMs and others to synchronise access through traffic signals.

TTS showcased the Personal Signal Assistant product, supporting Audi’s traffic light online information service, at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show and is now deploying the service nationwide in select metro areas, often overlapping with agencies utilising the TransSuite solution.

For many who live in major metropolitan areas around the US this is a distinct reality as new ways to move from Point A to Point B continue to

Massive amounts of traffic related information, such as speed, volume, incidents and weather are being generated every second by road operators and users alike. Big data’ derives its name from the sheer amount and complexity of available raw data. Its potential value is starting to emerge among the intelligent transportation systems community. A gold rush is taking place to capture this value, with da

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
