Traffic management specialist 189 Siemens is renaming its UK traffic to Intelligent Traffic Systems (ITS) from October 2016. Siemens feels the name better reflects the company’s focus on intelligence within its traffic management activities, products and systems and aligns the UK business with the company’s global operations.
