Leading integrator of payment and information solutions and related services for intelligent travel applications, 378 Cubic Transportation Systems, is demonstrating a complete range of integrated solutions and services for the future of traffic management here at the 2015 ITS World Congress.

Pressure on the world’s urban and regional transport networks continues to challenge governments and authorities and will only intensify in the years ahead. Cubic says it has risen to the challenge by developing and deploying a truly whole-of-transport approach to multimodal transport management called NextCity  – a solution that analyses how transport infrastructure is performing over time and uses intelligent insights from disparate data sources, including mobility and payment choice, to keep infrastructure operations in optimal condition. The company claims it is in the vanguard of making that vision of intelligent travel a reality.

Here in Bordeaux, Cubic is showing how it has evolved from a world leader in transport revenue collection to being a leader in the deployment of systems and solutions that seamlessly unite payment, real-time and predictive traveller information, across all modes of travel. The company is demonstrating how deep data analytics solves problems in ways that were previously unimaginable.

“Video analytics, intelligent tolling and state of the art traffic management combine with revolutionary methods of paying for all forms of travel to yield a whole new world of insight and knowledge, allowing city authorities to effect beneficial change on a scale never before possible,” says Martin Howell, Worldwide Marketing Communications Director at Cubic Transportation Systems.

    August 10, 2016
    HNTB’s Matthew Click sets out why a move to mileage-based pricing is inevitable. Infrastructure is the most neglected yet the most critical engine of our society, and our continued indifference could lead to a dystopian future. Our roads, bridges and highways have been largely passed by in the digital age—marginalised in an era when funding is limited and stewardship of physical assets has given way to our preoccupation with technological innovation and data—the stuff of the virtual realm.

    March 4, 2014
    The ‘value of time’ concept can be a vital decider in prioritising transport projects, as Lorenzo Casullo and Serbjeet Kohli of Steer Davies Gleave explain.

For many years Steer Davies Gleave (SDG) has been collecting this type of information from thousands of people across the world as it researches travellers’ behaviour. And given the importance of this parameter for transport mo
