Transport Research Laboratory (491 TRL) is demonstrating the latest version of its Transyt Online software at 70 Intertraffic, and is also working with its French integrator Spie Sud-Est, to expand Transyt Online across the cities of France.

Spie plan to integrate Transyt Online into its Cite product and offer this extra functionality to its wide customer base and new customers. The choice of Transyt Online was a natural one following the successful use of Transyt in a project in Cannes where Spie used Transytto optimise the signal timings to realise a 40 per cent reduction in stops and delays.

TRL is renowned for developing Transyt, its internationally recognised simulation and modelling tool for optimising and coordinating signal timings over a network. With Transyt Online the functionality is extended and allows optimised Signal Plans to be sent directly to on-street controllers to allow frequent retiming without the need to go out on the street in response to events.

    New software from the PTV Group enables users to carry out traffic studies necessitated by planned housing schemes or shopping centre construction, which could have a substantial influence on traffic management. According to PTV, its PTV Vistro software simplifies traffic studies and allows users to quickly create networks, while at the same time enabling them to optimise traffic signals. The user can specify the geometry of the network, add data from traffic counts and specify traffic control rules for in
