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.

    Australian study quantifies the benefits of SCATS to the motorists, the environment and the economy. Opportunity weekday cost savings potential of some AUD16 million (US$15.2 million) has emerged from rigorous analysis of a one-day study of Australia’s Sydney Coordinated Adaptive Traffic System (SCATS) in operation. This represents 27% of the total cost of a real alternative semi-adaptive traffic control. The estimated indicative annual weekday-based value is AUD3,900 million (US$3,705 million) or 0.9% of t

    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

    David Crawford looks at an under-utilised solution for city-centre deliveries. The use of rivers and canals for moving freight is a well-established mode in North Western Europe, where it can take advantage of an intensively developed network. In the Netherlands, 40% of the total volume of goods transported internally goes by water; the figure for Flanders (the neighbouring Dutch-speaking region of Belgium) is 11.5%.
