Drivers in Poland can look forward to more options in receiving real-time traffic information in the future with the launch of 7004 CE-Traffic’s new Premium RDS-TMC service.

According to Jiří Novobilský, CEO of traffic data provider CE-Traffic, the company developed the new system “to get more out of the technology that has been available for more than a decade so that navigation systems vendors can offer to their customers an easy to implement and affordable traffic service of a real value. Our Premium RDS-TMC offers drivers an access to very detailed traffic information without any mobile telecommunication cost and subscription fees,” he said.

The CE-Traffic Premium RDS-TMC uses TMC components; up to date traffic flow data and journalistic information are smartly aggregated and regionally filtered.  The company’s TISA certified Location Table (LTN 6) includes not only all major roads and streets but also lower category roads commonly used by drivers like shortcuts or alternative routes to offer the best available coverage.  The RDS channel with enhanced capacity allows broadcasting of more than 1,000 traffic messages.  The service is available country-wide via a partnership with Polis radio station Radio ZET.

Tomasz Przeździęk, CE-Traffic Director for Poland, added: “When looking at the overall traffic offering for personal and in-car navigation systems in Poland one can see that expensive connected devices did not achieve the major market acceptance. Proven TMC standard together with high quality CE-Traffic Floating Car Data is an easy to implement alternative to provide drivers with the most accurate and up-to-date traffic information.”
