Arrival times information system

The project implementation mainly includes installation of the sensors along the affected city communication network, particularly along the City Ring and selected adjoining radial roads. The project focuses on improving information provided to the drivers who drive along selected radial roads. It offers them important information that can contribute to their decisions related to the route they choose for passing through the area in question.

Function

• Providing information about arriving times
• Expanding the installation of the telematics systems to the so far uncovered or less covered parts of the city communication skeleton

Benefit 

• Improved availability of the arrival time information, resp. information about the traffic situation along the monitored sections of the city ring and selected adjoining radials
• Installation and operation of a new system of arrival times, primarily designed for alternative “directing” of vehicles throughout a selected traffic network
• Making the collection, processing, storage and provision of traffic and travel information addressed by the project more efficient and contributing to an improved accuracy and reliability of the telematics systems and to extending the extent and volume of the provided aggregated data and information
