VMS manufacturer 8321 Bartco UK used 136 Traffex to showcase its integration of ITS products which aim to increase road safety.

The company is working with SRL Traffic Systems on the integration of its HD Quattro portable variable message sign (VMS) with temporary traffic lights, designed to show basic safety information during temporary traffic light installation and road works.

Measuring 650mm x 750mm, the sign is being integrated on the same boxes and posts SRL uses for its Radiolight temporary traffic lights and powered by their batteries. The integrated HD Quattro will be a safety and information sign, informing road users of road works being installed and the speed limit.  

The VMS will also be deployed within work zones to manage on-site traffic.

With the addition of a radar, the HD Quattro can also be used as a speed-activated sign to increase its effectiveness and run times.

    The German AKTIV project is researching several cooperative driving applications for use in work zones. PTV's Michael Ortgiese details progress. The steep increases in traffic volumes predicted back in the early 1990s have unfortunately been proven to be more than accurate. In Germany, the AKTIV project continues to look into cooperative technologies' potential to reduce the impact of those increased traffic volumes and keep traffic moving despite limitations in infrastructure capacity.

    A new generation of ITS equipment is helping road authorities get to grips with cycle safety – and not a moment too soon as Colin Sowman discovers. Cyclists - remember them? Apparently not. At least not according to the OECD 2013 report Cycling, Health and Safety which contains the statement: ‘Cyclists are often forgotten in the design of the road traffic system’. Looking through the statistics that exist (each country appears to compile them differently) it is not difficult to see how such a conclusion cou
