Sensys Networks has deployed wireless sensors at 12 intersections and two pedestrian crossings as part of an ITS project in a Slovakian city. 

The Smart Trnava initiative has seen significant travel time reductions on some routes. Sensys says its technology enabled accurate data collection, real-time traffic analysis, and improved decision-making to optimise traffic flow and ensure pedestrian safety. 

Commissioned by the city of Trnava, the project uses the Invipo integration platform and is led by traffic tech firm Alam. It incorporates dynamic traffic management, Bluetooth travel time detectors and real-time traffic monitoring, enabling live traffic updates for road users. 

Key streets saw travel time reductions of up to 50%, easing congestion during peak hours, while advanced signal systems increased intersection capacity by nearly 9%. Sensys says improved traffic flow leads to reduced emissions, and in future Trnava plans to integrate additional smart technologies, such as enhanced environmental monitoring and public transport optimisation.

    Situated in San Diego County, California, the growing city of San Marcos has seen its population increase by 53.5 per cent since the turn of the century. Although this dramatic population increase has spurred economic growth bringing new business, homes and opportunities to the city, it has also increased traffic congestion along its central corridor, San Marcos Boulevard. This became the most congested arterial in the city, and, by 2006, the second-most travelled corridor in San Diego County.
