India to issue ITS tender

In a bid to minimise accidents on the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway in India, the Noida Authority is to issue a tender for an intelligent transportation system (ITS), including a control room, emergency call boxes, message signs, CCTV, speed cameras, VIDS cameras and a meteorological data system.

In a bid to minimise accidents on the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway in India, the Noida Authority is to issue a tender for an intelligent transportation system (ITS), including a control room, emergency call boxes, message signs, CCTV, speed cameras, VIDS cameras and a meteorological data system.

According to officials, completion is projected within six months of the tenders being finalised and the project launched. Once in place, the system will reduce travel times and improve traffic safety and surveillance, as well as reducing operational costs and incident reaction time.

The system will monitor traffic data in real-time, detect incidents and congestion automatically and inform road users about travel time, congestions, road closures, diversions, rerouting and all major events via LED message signs.

    David Crawford looks how workzone safety can be ‘economically viable’. Highway maintenance is one of the most dangerous construction industry occupations in Europe. Research from The Netherlands on fatal crashes indicates that the risk facing road workzone operatives is ‘significantly higher’ than that for the general construction workforce. A survey carried out by the Highways Agency, which runs the UK’s motorway and trunk road network, has suggested that 20% of road workers have suffered injuries from pa

  • Road space utilisation improves travel times, reduces costs
    February 1, 2012
    For major road works schemes, necessary lane closures are timed to minimise congestion, most frequently at night and on weekends when traffic is at its lightest. As a result, rigid timetables are used in planning, programming and implementing work. In the UK, to calculate the expected traffic demand through roads works, historic profiles from the loop-based MIDAS (Motorway Incident Detection Automatic Signalling) system were used. These provided a valuable indicator of anticipated traffic behaviour but were
