Imtech Traffic & Infra, the Netherlands-based traffic and infrastructure specialist arm of technical services provider Royal 769 Imtech NV, has extended its ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems) portfolio by acquiring the Cutlas common database system from 4082 Envitia.

The company says Cutlas is a key addition to their portfolio, providing seamless integration of their ITS solutions such as ImFlow and SCOOT, including third party systems. The addition of a centralised control and strategic management system enables Imtech to fully address cities’ needs for integration and optimal performance of traffic flows and transport networks.

Cities increasingly require effective integration and management of data relating to the performance of transport network and traffic flows.  The Imtech portfolio of intelligent traffic solutions enables services based on a city’s assets and traffic infrastructure including the provision of publicly distributed information.

Jan Casteleijn, Managing Director Imtech Traffic and Infra: “The acquisition of the Cutlas common database system from Envitia enables us to execute our strategy of providing solutions and value added services to cities worldwide. ITS covers the application of information and communications technology and data management in traffic infrastructure and vehicles for making traffic safer, more efficient, more reliable and considerably more environmentally friendly. Imtech will continue to develop and expand the capabilities of the new Imtech system in line with the market requirements.”
