Visitors here at Intertraffic 2016 are meeting Dynniq, a brand new company they will already know well because it has a long and successful track record!

Imtech Traffic & Infra is now 8343 Dynniq and has adopted the motto, ‘energising mobility’. The newly-named company is focusing on technology and innovation and is positioning itself around three markets: mobility, parking and energy.

The company was the first in the Netherlands to develop products to make cooperative applications possible so it is no surprise that under the heading of cooperative and connected mobility, Dynniq will continue to develop the next step in traffic management that connects infrastructure with individual road users.

It will also specialise in city management, developing scenario-based network management that improves city life, as well as control systems that provide state-of-the-art infrastructure management. Importantly for the environment, Dynniq continues to develop air quality monitoring tools to effectively reduce emissions as well as communications networks that make technology work.

Although a brand new name, Dynniq has many years of experience in managing mobility and energy issues and was responsible for the delivery of several progressive projects. For example, the former Imtech Traffic & Infra was co-responsible for the construction of the well-publicised SolaRoad, an innovative road surface converting sunlight into energy.

The company was also the party behind the intelligent intersections in Helmond, Netherlands where traffic flow has been improved by connecting intersections with each other and SCOOT, the international adaptive control system.

As Dynniq CEO Cees de Wijs commented: "Designing, connecting and integrating systems is what we are good at. This is also going to be our focus in the coming years.”

    Amsterdam City Council has chosen to move away from manual enforcement of its environmental zone, which is intended to keep highly polluting goods vehicles out of the city centre, and is installing an automated, ANPR-based system. The signs are not much to look at: white with a red circle and the all-important word Milieuzone ('Environmental zone'). But these signs mean that Amsterdam's city centre is strictly off-limits to polluting goods traffic. At the moment compliance is monitored by special wardens wh

A key objective for the Californian city of Bakersfield’s upgraded traffic operations centre (TOC), which opened in June 2014, is to help improve living conditions in a region with one of the worst air quality problems in the US. The TOC is speeding up the smoothing of traffic flows by delivering faster and better-informed traffic signal retiming and synchronisation.

    As vehicle manufacturers, regulators and governments around the world seek solutions to prevent another emissions cheating scandal similar to the Volkswagen case, a major vehicle emissions inspection company has compiled and analysed on-road emissions data indicating that emissions violations of vehicles under real-world driving conditions may well go far beyond VW diesels. Opus Inspection says a two-pronged approach that continuously monitors real-world emissions is the only effective remedy. Lothar Ge

    Econolite's new subsidiary Aegis ITS has been set up to address the increasingly complex and exacting needs of agencies in the ITS sector. Chief Operating Officer Doug Terry talks about the evolution to service solution provider. A few very notable and honourable exceptions notwithstanding, it is these days becoming increasingly rare to find a public agency which develops its own traffic management systems. Indeed, most now rely on specialist manufacturers and suppliers to fulfil their needs. This has the h
