5642 Trafficware’s release of its Synchro plus SimTraffic Version 9.1 traffic optimisation and simulation tool adds traffic impact analysis (TIA), a feature designed to assess the adequacy of existing or future arterial traffic generated by proposed property developments.  

Synchro’s traffic impact analysis will streamline traffic engineers’ workload by automatically generating routes into and out of a proposed development, automating calculations for trip assignments and distributions and facilitating planning of multiple future growth projections to provide the most comprehensive traffic impact study.

Trip generation data imports directly for users of TripGen 2014; otherwise, volumes are entered into Synchro. Pass-by trips are included with trip generation and trip distribution. Multiple property developments, each with multiple driveways and land uses, can now be included in one Synchro file.

    The Metropolitan Government of Nashville and Davidson County's Department of Public Works(MPW) identified seven corridors in the County that experience heavy traffic congestion and needed traffic signal timing improvements to improve traffic flow as well as air quality and fuel consumption. The seven corridors included a total of 223 signalised intersections. To conduct this study, termed the Traffic Signal Optimisation Study for the Metro Nashville Signal System, MPW received funding from the Federal Conge

    Automatic number plate recognition continues to find new applications beyond the traditional. In coming years, we can expect the application set to grow significantly Moore's Law has seen to it that computer processing power has improved out of all comparison in the 30-plus years since the first working Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system was created by the UK's Police Scientific Development Branch. The attendant increases in systems' capabilities have resulted in ANPR being deployed globally

    The European Commission’s SeRoN research project has drawn to a close, having developed a sophisticated method of identifying and quantifying threats to critical infrastructure. In December 2008 the European Commission published the directive 2008/114/EC on the identification, designation and assessment of the need to improve ‘European critical infrastructure’. In line with the objectives formulated in this directive, the SeRoN (Security of Road Transport Networks) research project was established in Novemb
