SPECIAL INTEREST SESSION

There will also be a special interest session under the theme ‘Deploying traffic management 2.0’. The topic for the session is ‘Transport networks evolution’.

Traffic management aims to improve traffic flow leading to safer, cleaner and more efficient road traffic. Traditionally, TM is mainly the area of road authorities. However, service providers provide more and more services to road users via in-car/mobile systems. Currently various and unsynchronized messages are provided to road users. A major transition in traffic management is envisaged by the exchange of TM plans and individual route information between traffic centres and service providers and deployment of interactive TM strategies, leading to harmonized messages, optimal use of the network and better individual route advice. This SIS presents the concept of this transition to interactive traffic management and accompanying policy making. AustriaTech will be sharing their view on that.

The Dutch Ministry (RWS) and the City of Ghent will present their activities in deploying interactive traffic management. Involved service provider Be-Mobile will give more insight on the position of service providers and their thoughts on the role of data. Finally, MaaS will help bridge the ‘TM 2.0’ concept with that of Mobility as a Service.
