Indian traffic electronics company, 7713 Envoys, has launched its latest vehicle actuated traffic signal controller that uses wireless to control the traffic signal.  This adaptive traffic control system (ATCS) compatible controller is suitable to use at isolated intersections or as part of a synchronised chain of controllers.

The controller supports remote monitoring and management of signal plans over various communications mediums, including 3G.  Other features include optimised solar power operation, PWM-based intensity control of signal lamps, GPS/server-based distributed time synchronisation and pole mountable miniature architecture.

    Wireless transmission of data and control information is making smarter traffic management easier and cheaper to install. It has long been known that connectivity is the key to improving traffic management and many cost-benefit studies prove that investment in new technology can be justified in terms of reduced congestion, shorter travel times, improved safety and air quality. However, many authorities’ cap-ex budgets only cover urgent matters, not improvements, making it difficult, if not impossible to

    Siemens Mobility's Mark Bodger discusses the growing use of PC-based systems for urban traffic control. Across the ITS sector, there is a common trend of taking traffic and travel management out of the hands of bespoke solutions, realising the use of common, open-source technologies and solutions and enjoying all the attendant economies of scale and ease of use which that implies.

    Field trials under way in Arizona promise eradication of accidents between emergency vehicles at intersections – as part of a national focus on ‘intelligent signal’ infrastructure. Collisions between police cars, ambulances and fire crews as they reach intersections at the same time, with equal priority given by all signals set on red, are as serious as they sound absurd. For emergency teams and those in need of their help, the consequences are dire. The solution could come from application of connected veh
