Why do we need ITS? There are 175 million cars on the roads in Western Europe, leading to…. ….congestion ….pollution ….road accidents … businesses losing money … green-belts being destroyed …. driver stress
What is ITS? • The aim of Intelligent Transportation Services (ITS) is to optimise the efficiency of the existing transportation infrastructure, in preference to building new roads. • With ITS governments and local authorities can monitor traffic, manage it and inform the public of the traffic issues facing them on the roads. • The rise of the ITS industry has come about primarily through the desire to reduce congestion, enhance the environment and improve road safety.
Different ITS Technologies: Electronic Toll Collection Generation 1: Toll Plaza Generation 2: Open Carriageway Generation 3: Vehicle Positioning System • roadside-vehicle communication • Pass through at normal speeds • roadside-vehicle communication • Slow to pass through • Global positioning satellite tracks the vehicle • Vehicles can move freely • Suitable for road user charging
Different ITS Technologies: Advanced Traffic Management Systems Video Image Processing Vehicle Detection Licence Plate Recognition Urban Traffic Control Systems
Different ITS Technologies: Traffic Information Systems Trafficmaster RDS-TMC Variable Message Signs • Radio or navigation system • Traffic flow data collected, processed & broadcast digitally • Signal is translated into the driver’s own language • Pertinent to route being travelled only. • 7500 infra-red sensors over 8000 miles of UK motorways/trunk roads • Real-time traffic info disseminated every 3 minutes via radio broadcasts • UK, Germany, France, Italy.
