Planet is an intelligent street lighting system which consists of wireless nodes connecting individual lights and a dedicated wireless network. 

The system reduces maintenance costs and turns streetlight poles into hubs for smart city sensors, Telensa says.
 
The Alloy management solution is expected to connect people, systems and assets. It can be scaled across different asset types and integrates with all systems through application programming interfaces, the company adds.

    Cubic’s Chris Bax looks at the challenges and benefits of implementing transport as a service. Imagine paying for travel in exactly the same way you buy your phone service. For example, you would pay a set amount in exchange for a monthly travel package covering up to 100km of free taxi journeys in your home city (including a guaranteed 15 minute pickup) and public transport usage within a 1,500km radius of your home. Not only would this option be cheaper than owning and maintaining your own car, you would

    Telvent’s Jorgen Pedersen and Tip Franklin discuss how integrated corridor management can create synergies within a multimodal transportation infrastructure, while promoting modal shift. The mantra ‘We cannot build ourselves out of congestion’ has long been stated and too often ignored. But with the economy in dire straits, funding deficits and pressure to reduce governmental spending, this is now being taken seriously by almost everyone who has an interest in the flow of traffic. By ‘everyone’ we include

    Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have found a method of combining vehicle-level data with less precise, but more comprehensive, city-level data on traffic patterns to produce better information than current systems provide. They claim this reduce delays, improve efficiency, and reduce emissions. The new findings are reported in a pair of papers by assistant professor of civil and environmental engineering Carolina Osorio and alumna Kanchana Nanduri, published in the journals Tra

    San Antonio, Texas, is launching a new GPS-based bus rapid transit system (BRT) that keeps San Antonio’s new VIA Primo bus fleet on-schedule with minimal impact on individual traffic flow. Siemens Road and City Mobility business has worked together with Trapeze Group to create a new transit signal priority (TSP) solution that they say is the first of its kind to use a ‘virtual’ GPS-based detection zone for transit vehicle traffic management without the need for physical detector equipment at the intersectio
