As a result of its fast-growing UK user base, TSS, the company behind the 16 Aimsun and Aimsun Online software, is opening an office in London, UK. The London office is particularly concerned with the support of large-scale modelling projects and real-time traffic management with Aimsun Online.

The office is located in Devonshire Square in the City and will be managed by Dr Mark Brackstone, a respected figure in the ITS industry with a background ranging from blue-sky R&D through to consultancy, project management and bid leadership
 
"We look forward to offering high quality, on-the-ground support to the many local consultancies, universities and government authorities who use Aimsun," said TSS managing director, Jaime L. Ferrer. “Establishing a strategic base in London also enables us to strengthen our client-servicing capabilities for new projects and UK organisations that have demonstrated keen interest in the potential of Aimsun integrated traffic modelling software.”

To complement the opening of its London office, TSS will be holding the 2014 edition of the European Aimsun Users' Meeting in the capital in early October.

    Satellite-based tolling opens up new options for authorities and can be integrated with DSRC systems as David Crawford discovers. As the proud custodian of the European Union (EU)’s longest road network covered by a single (truck) charging scheme – and the only one to include all major roads - Slovakia has become the continent’s poster-nation for the virtues of GNSS/CN (Global Navigation Satellite System/Cellular Network)-based tolling.
