129 Swarco is presenting its turnkey solution approach based on Omnia, a sophisticated software solution which encompasses fully automated and adaptive control principles as well as traffic-responsive and traffic-actuated strategies. The company has added to up-to-date traffic monitoring techniques and flexible solutions to integrate a large variety of traffic light controllers, such as Swarco's ITC-3.

Also being highlighted is the company's iTravel, a cooperative traffic measurement solution providing lane level traffic flow measurement and high-precision travel time measurement based on Bluetooth technology. Design and performance highlights will be the award-winning Futurlu LED street light generation and the latest developments in LED-based traffic signals (eco-designed Futura line) and (partly vehicle-actuated) variable message signs for urban, interurban, tunnel, parking and mobile applications.

Meanwhile, Swarco's Traffic Materials division will be presenting its range of high-performance glass bead products which increase reflectivity and durability of road markings.

    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
