Wireless solutions provider 8062 Intuicom, in conjunction with its authorised distributor, Twincrest Technologies, has supplied the 375 Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Laredo with additional wireless solutions to expand its wireless traffic communications network.

The system utilises Intuicom’s Nitro58 wireless broadband radios, augmented by the company’s BroadBandPro enterprise network management software. This software automatically discovers, configures, optimises and secures their Intuicom wireless network.

The combination provides TxDOT Laredo with reliable and secure high speed data communications connecting all the city’s intersections. This scalable wireless solution works seamlessly with their existing Trafficware Management System enabling the centralised monitoring and management of the entire traffic network from the City’s traffic operations centre.

    Opening the closed-loop to realise ITS benefits
    Jim Leslie, manager of ITS applications engineering at the Econolite Group looks at practical steps in transitioning from closed-loop masters to a centralised ATMS. Not many years ago the standard method of coordinating signalised intersections in local areas was to install an on-street master – each of which monitored and controlled a limited number of signal controllers or intersections as a closed-loop system. And, to a certain extent, each closed-loop system was autonomous from others deployed by the ag

    MIT researchers hack into traffic lights
    With permission from a local road agency, researchers in from the University of Michigan hacked into nearly 100 wirelessly networked traffic lights, highlighting security issues that they say are likely to pervade networked traffic infrastructure around the country. More than 40 states currently use such systems to keep traffic flowing as efficiently as possible, helping to reduce emissions and delays. The team, led by University of Michigan computer scientist J. Alex Halderman, found three major weaknes
