Councils in Tyne and Wear have appointed
Osprey UTMC is said to include significant improvements to strategic planning and reporting tools, alongside its existing functionality.
The project will be delivered in multiple phases with initial implementation due for completion in early 2018 and further stages scheduled to be completed by the end of next year. The contract also includes an additional five years of system support until 2023.
Craig Morrison, Mott MacDonald’s project director, said: "We are looking forward to working with the Tyne and Wear local authorities to enhance their Osprey functionality, such as dashboard views, historic data display and strategy implementation. This will make it easier for their control room operators to implement actions to improve traffic flows, which in turn will reduce congestion for the benefit of commuters within the region.”
