Transport data analysis specialist MS2 has been chosen by Oklahoma Department of Transportation (ODoT) in the US to help update its systems.

ODoT has selected MS2's cloud-based traffic data management system (TDMS) to streamline its traffic monitoring process.

Hosted on Amazon Web Services, it will enable ODoT "to perform business operations efficiently and effectively to meet State and Federal mandates, as well as align with the state’s Transportation Modernization Initiative to shape the future of transportation in Oklahoma", MS2 says.

The system is integrated with ArcGIS Server and Google Maps, and contains a number of software modules - from traffic count to Weigh in Motion - and is designed to be flexible as transport needs change. 

“We are excited to work with the ODoT team to upgrade its legacy traffic monitoring system,” said Ben Chen, founder and principal partner of MS2.

ODoT will be using:

  • Traffic Count Database System (TCDS)
  • Turning Movement Count System (TMC)
  • Highway Performance Monitoring System (HPMS)
  • Traffic Forecast Management System (TFMS)
  • Work Order Tracking System (WOTS)
  • Autopolling Extension (AP)
  • Count Scheduler Extension (CS)
  • Roads and Highways Extension (R&H)
  • Field Tool Extension (FT)
  • Publication Database (PD)
  • Traffic Viewer Extension (TV)
     

The company has more than 270 clients, including 23 US state DoTs.

The Cycling Delivery Plan published by the UKs Department for Transport (UKDfT) contains 13 mentions of ‘cycle proofing’ a term that has been growing in use, but what does it mean, and have we got the wrong word?
