7053 New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT) has appointed Tilson, 5897 IBI Group and MobilityTech to implement a design/build intelligent transportation systems (ITS) project along the F. E. Everett Turnpike.


The project includes design, planning and installation of dynamic message signs, closed circuit cameras, roadway detectors, and wireless communications systems linking the ITS to the NHDOT Transportation Management Center. These systems help to streamline incident management, improve safety in work zones, facilitate greater fuel efficiency and create ‘smart roads’ that could potentially guide future self-driving cars.

    Established detection and monitoring technologies continue to evolve, but is it time to challenge their supremacy and take a serious look at less conventional ITS? Andy Graham considers the options with Jason Barnes. For ITS system providers, the most potentially lucrative markets over the next few years are going to be the BRIC (Brazil Russia India and China) group of countries, all of which are building many miles of new roads, applying tolling to existing ones (8,000km in China alone) and implementing w
