Wireless data solutions supplier 8062 Intuicom is to expand the wireless traffic communications system in Castle Rock, Colorado, in conjunction with the town’s transportation and traffic network initiative currently in deployment.

Intuicom’s BroadBand Solutions (BBS) radios will provide a scalable wireless interconnection for the town’s traffic signal controllers while enabling centralised monitoring and management of the entire traffic network from the town’s traffic operations centre.

Expansion in the town’s population is a key driver behind the its investment in upgrading the transportation network, moving to a centrally-managed traffic control system, with the aim of deploying a system capable of reducing driver delays and better serving the community’s transportation needs.

    Wireless bridges widen options for ITS upgrades
    Antaira Technologies’ marketing engineer Brian Roth explains why the increasing capacity of wireless bridges is reducing the cost of expanding and upgrading ITS networks. With more than half of the world’s population now living in cities, the need for efficient transportation of both people and goods has never been greater and that pressure is unlikely to ease any time soon. Indeed in many regions of the world the rate of urbanisation is still increasing as the demand for rural workers continues to decline.

    Wireless traffic management reduces costs and commute times
    The County of Los Angeles is widely known for having among the worst traffic problems and the most road congestion in the US. To combat these problems, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works decided to deploy a wireless communications system to connect over 1,000 of the most congested intersections so they could dynamically monitor and manage the congestion and reduce commute times.

    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

    Standardised technology aids low cost wireless communication
    In the UK, the necessary radio spectrum has been identified and standardised technology developed to allow cost effective wireless communication between cars, devices and other ‘machines’. This by Professor William Webb. A world free of traffic congestion, with intelligent systems directing vehicles and alerting drivers to free parking spaces may sound a far off fantasy to motorists stuck in seemingly endless queues on the outskirts of London. Yet this is a scenario not confined to the world of science fict
