Aimsun TSS-Transport Simulation Systems’ (TSS) Traffic Software
TSS-Transport Simulation Systems’ (TSS) 16 Aimsun traffic simulation software, capable of fusing static, dynamic and hybrid approaches within a single environment, will be a feature of the company’s participation at the ITS World Congress. But it is a sister application, Aimsun Online, that will grab a lot of attention from delegates and not just because it provides a real-time decision support system for traffic management. Its dynamic, high-speed simulation of large areas allows traffic operators to accurately forecast the future network flow patterns that will result from a particular traffic management or information provision strategy.

TSS will be highlighting the fact that, among other projects, Aimsun Online has been selected as the simulation-based subsystem in the decision support system (DSS) demonstrator in a prestigious integrated corridor management (ICM) project for the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG), in California. Expected to go live in spring 2013, the DSS is a ‘smart’ traffic management system that will give system managers comprehensive awareness of the performance of the entire corridor. TSS says it will also allow them to take proactive steps to prevent system breakdown using enhanced controls across devices such as traffic signals, ramp meters, and message signs.

    Laser Technology Australia celebrates success in Melbourne
    The innovative LTI TruSense traffic sensors from Laser Technology Australia are now proving their worth at a test site in Melbourne. Five of the dual traffic laser systems have been installed on a gantry over the M80 Ring Road in Melbourne, scanning the vehicle flow in each lane. These TruSense T-Series scanners are able to record data on vehicle speed, dimensions and occupancy in real time. The non-intrusive scanners are said to be highly accurate and reliable and produce the rapid pulse rates and measure

    Self-propelled road marking, lines or beads
    Belgian company Graco, a specialist in advanced airless striping solutions, will be at Intertraffic Amsterdam 2014 to launch the LineLazer IV 250DC, which the company says is the first stand-on self-propelled striper in the market for multi-colour road markings. Modularity is one of its main advantages. A complete pressurised bead system can be added to the unit to achieve ultimate retroreflection, while the unit can also be expanded with bead tanks, bead guns and spray guns, providing more capacity and the
