139 TransCore has been selected by the Municipal Transit Authority of the City of Guayaquil, Ecuador, to integrate its TransSuite software solution with the City’s existing traffic signal controllers in a bid to improve the coordination of multiple traffic management systems.


Phase 1 of the project has been deployed and created an integrated system to work with controllers from multiple different manufacturers, as well as the City’s SCATS-based adaptive traffic management system.  It also included a pilot implementation of an RFID-based bus priority system using state-of-the-art TransCore readers and tags.  In phase 2, TransCore will coordinate the integration of additional controllers, CCTV and 1835 Bluetooth readers for travel time calculations into TransSuite.

TransCore is part of a team, including South American partner, SIC TransCore, and Alcolisti, an Ecuadorian firm that is leading the project.
