1862 Gewi’s message at the ITS World Congress Melbourne is good news for road agencies: today’s vehicles generate data that can be collected by the company’s TIC Software, which can then automatically create an incident response to be processed by a road agency.

The software provides the link between vehicles and road agencies allowing incident responses that can be customised by incident type, and where TIC manages all steps to clear the incident. This includes alerting drivers via navigation systems, broadcast radio, smart phones and social media. Since this is done in real-time, the rapid response helps prevent secondary incidents and further delays. Gewi will highlight how its TIC is used worldwide as a solution for many traffic projects including work zones, road incident management, traffic news for radio, real-time information for navigation, traffic and travel Information services, and more.

    Examination of Norway’s tolling companies finds much to praise, and some criticisms too, as Torill Eidsheim told delegates at the ASECAP conference. The cost of collecting tolls has a substantial effect on the profitability, or otherwise, of tolling companies and is within the company’s control to a far greater degree than, for instance, traffic volumes. And while it is easy to assume that all tolling companies incur similar collection costs, that is not always the case according to Torill Eidsheim, pres
