The system allows trucks to keep traffic lights green so they can pass through a 25-mile trial site comprising three freight routes.


The three-month project has been initiated by Transport for New South Wales and Roads and Maritime Services. The routes are located at Pennant Hills, Parramatta and King Georges roads.

The company says the software will also provide the appropriate infrastructure for when vehicle-to-everything (V2X) C/AVs arrive.
