Mvis has launched two new variable message signs (VMS) to assist drivers with road closures, traffic accidents or planned maintenance work in the event of drivers needing to be re-routed. The signs are designed to be portable and mobile so that they can quickly be put into position with minimum disruption.

For planned maintenance, messages can be scheduled at different times and dates using the Web Studio to warn motorists to make alternative plans. Changes can be made by any Wi-Fi-enabled Apple device for any quick changes that need to be made.

In unplanned incidents, MVIS’ distribution team will be able to deploy a VMS from any of its 20 depots quickly. In addition, a 24/7 support line is available for any assistance related queries.

MVIS supplies two different sized VMS products – the smaller of the two; the VMS-A is suitable for inner city and urban roads with a speed limit of 50mph or under, and the larger VMS-C which is suitable for all roads, especially motorways and locations with a speed limit of 60mph or more.

The equipment is completely weatherproof and vandal resistant. Its non-glare LED screen means your message will be completely visible at any time of the day or night.

    Ted Bowser explains how the almost total Wi-Fi coverage at Ride-On’s new bus garage is providing big benefits for the operator and passengers alike. The ability to download and upload data to and from the various systems on board buses has become central to mass transit operators’ business model. So when Ride-On, the public transportation system in Maryland’s Montgomery County, was moving one of its three depots into a bigger and purpose-built facility, connectivity was a key consideration.

    Japan will not only host this year’s ITS World Congress but has been selected for the 2020 Olympics. So what can Japan, and indeed Brazil, learn from the traffic management for London 2012 - Geoff Hadwick finds out. It was a key moment when Olympic boss Jacques Rogge signed off London 2012, calling the Games “happy and glorious.” Scarred by the logistical disaster of Atlanta 1996 and the last-minute building panic for Athens 2008, Rogge clearly thought London 2012 was an object lesson in how to plan and
