The 7318 Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) is deploying 8062 Intuicom’s BroadbandPro enterprise management software state-wide in an effort to unify and centralise the management of their municipality based traffic servers and 189 Siemens’ TACTICS central traffic management software.

The patented software includes drag-and-drop network configuration, real-time bi-directional network link data and a performance dashboard that intuitively communicates network performance parameters including ping latency, signal-to-noise ratio and Tx/Rx CCQ. It also has the ability to notify a technician, by text or email, that there is a failure in the field, improving response times.

    Real time active traffic management improves travel times
    Traffic management centres (TMC) have traditionally served to provide surveillance and responses to traffic incidents and recurring and non-recurring changes in road networks. Typically, a TMC collected field data from the roadway and transit infrastructure and provided the integration necessary for operators to see what was happening and then coordinate a response. Standard operating procedures (SOPs) guided operators on how to respond to a given situation. It eventually became impractical for TMC operat
