Singapore deploys arterial VMS

Some 26 electronic signboards installed in West Coast Highway, Dunearn Road, Bukit Timah Road, Jalan Anak Bukit and Woodlands Road, in Singapore, have started displaying information about incidents and traffic jams on arterial roads and expressway running parallel to it.

The signboards are part of the Arterial Variable Message Signs (AVMS) that will display the information based on a live video footage.

The first phase of the project, which costs US$32.26 million, will have more signboards installed by 2012 at other five busy areas. A total of 10 major arterial road sectors will be covered by 2013. AVMS information will also be provided through facebook (%$Linker: External 0 0 0 oLinkExternal www.faceboook.com/WeKeepYourWorldMoving facebook false http://www.facebook.com/WeKeepYourWorldMoving false false%>) or %$Linker: External 0 0 0 oLinkExternal www.onemotoring.com.sg One Motoring false http://onemotoring.com.sg/ false false%>
