5151 ST Electronics of Singapore has been awarded contracts valued at a total of SGD 58 million (US$46.84 million) to carry out infomation-security and ITS projects.

Under the info-security projects, which are worth SGD 28mn, ST Electronics will implement solutions and devices for a national infrastructure project, as well as event management and security incident systems.

The ITS projects, worth SGD 30 million, involve the provision of consultancy expertise by ST Electronics for an integrated transport platform for a major city in western China. Under this project, the consultancy will design a platform for subsystems like automated incident detection, licence plate recognition, CCTV, traffic signal controls and enforcement system, dynamic messaging and parking guidance, and also control centre and expert systems.

Another ITS project the company has won is in Thailand where ST Electronics has been awarded a contract, which will be completed by the end of next year, for the implementation of an automatic fare collection system for the Silom Line extension of Bangkok’s mass transit system. The company will provide the fare system for stations between Wong Wian Yai and Bang Wa. This project will be completed by end-2012.

    Someone once likened predicting the future to ‘nailing a jelly to the wall’. With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne
