Kapsch will be highlighting its V2X Application

Expanding its range of offerings from the highway into the city, at this year’s ITS World Congress in Bordeaux 81 Kapsch will show how cutting-edge real-time smart parking applications, smart data and advanced analytics can answer not only mobility issues but can encourage the economic and environmental vitality of a city.

To respond to the rising demand for connectivity and better traffic management, Kapsch will also highlight its V2X application and its integrated traffic management solutions.
