AN EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM FOR
In a large midwestern state, a county road commission collects traffic data at major intersections, and then transmits the data via wireless broadband networks to enable real-time remote traffic signal control. In a major European capital, built-in roadway sensors detect traffic tie-ups due to accidents or weather, then immediately transmit the information to the centralized traffic control center via a high-speed wireless communications network. Sensors mounted on highway-bridge infrastructures communicate with Department of Transportation control facilities to identify conditions that could lead to structural failure. Through applications such as these and many, many others, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) are beginning to revolutionize traffic management and control all around the world. But ITS systems can’t do it alone
