Polish company 8247 Neurosoft is showing its new NeuroPark system, part of its NeuroCar product line, which gives drivers directions to suitable parking locations by the side of a motorway and also warns them of potential problems on their route.

Neurosoft is a software house. Its software in this case is integrated with cameras and laser radars that scan vehicles for make, model, size and colour. The cameras can also read numberplates, but in some European countries such as Germany this is illegal, so it allocates an alphanumeric designation to the vehicle instead.

“We try to use the camera as a single sensor to get reliable information for vehicle detection. If it’s necessary we can support our systems with additional sensors like lasers,” said Neurosoft sales director Piotr Bardadyn.

The software can tell the driver of a vehicle if a parking space is available at its stated destination. It can also warn a driver if there is any problem on the route. If the driver is carrying a dangerous load and there is a problem ahead, it can warn him to stop and wait until the problem is cleared.

The phenomenon of the phantom traffic jam is all too common: they appear for no apparent reason and, having caused frustrating delays for all travelers, evaporate for an equally mystical reason. Phantom traffic jams usually occur on busy highways and often take the form of repeatedly stopping and then accelerating up to near the

    Catering for those with disabilities can be cost-effective and improve services for all travellers, as David Crawford discovers. Clearer understanding of the economic value of accessible transport is essential if we are to speed up the current slow deployment levels, according to the Paris-based International Transport Forum (ITF), which staged a 2016 round table on the ‘Benefits and Costs of Inclusion in Transport’. It wants to see greater availability of data on levels of actual and unmet demand for acces
