Intelligent Transportation System
The volume of passenger & freight transport on our roads is continually growing, journeys are taking generally longer, deadlines are getting harder to meet.
At the same time more and more people commute to work over increasingly longer distances. This means that traffic is increasing, particularly in metropolitan areas and along major national and international roads.
ITS makes it possible to increase the efficiency of the transport system. This means that the road system can be utilized better and that the environmental impact can be minimized.
ITS is also used to increase road safety through traffic control, traffic guidance and incident detection.
While ITS is Intelligent Transportation System, we also believe in Innovative Transportation Solutions.
SAFETY
Protecting our dear and loved ones, regardless if they are travelling by car, bike or on foot, making sure they arrive safely at their destination is the top priority of all our traffic solutions.
Reliable high quality products, excellent optical performance signalization and powerful monitoring systems combined with quick service provides safe and reliable solutions for years to come.
ENVIRONMENT
Creating a sustainable traffic solution is a major challenge. Main goal is to reduce emissions and protect the Environment.
By investing in smart and adaptive traffic solution traffic flow will be improved and commuters spend less energy on unnecessary stops.
Adaptive speed limit control, effective rerouting and information about travel times and public transport alternatives are all solution that lead to improved traffic flow. Smoother traffic means less pollution.
Traffic control is not the only way to control traffic from a strategically point of view sometimes there is a wish for reducing traffic in certain area due to high levels of emissions.
By introducing the systems for gathering meteorological and air pollutant information which is put together in a emission prognosis, the traffic in designated areas can be reduced or limited. Information about actual air quality can be gathered in control system (SCADA).
By connecting weather station and air quality sensors valuable information such as CO., NO., NO2, temperature humidity and even sound levels can be stored in control system database saved for future use.
The environmental information can also be integrated with traffic management system. To reduce traffic in certain area and speed reduction on variable speed signs.
MOTION
ITS makes it possible to increase the efficiency of the transport system and allows the road authority to utilize its road network in a very efficient manner.
RAMP METERING
Ramp metering is a highly efficient ramp metering system designed to keep traffic flowing smoothly on heavily used urban ring road and motorways. The objective of ramp metering is to prevent traffic densities exceeding the critical threshold values beyond which the flow capacity breaks down and queues rapidly begin to build up. By maintaining traffic density at the optimal level road capacity is fully exploited.
BARRIER SYSTEMS
VIRA provides solutions for automated access control on motorways and in tunnels. Our robust barrier systems were designed to withstand the harsh environmental condition on motorways and tunnels.
VARIABLE SPEED LIMIT CONTROL
Our customers see the need to adapt the valid speed limits based on the actual traffic situation and rapidly changing weather conditions. Complete system for the control of variable speed limits, gives the customer a flexible and reliable solution for the control of speed based on inputs from weather sensors and traffic detectors.
TRAFFIC DATA LOGGING
A powerful traffic data logging device can provide information such as: Traffic volumes Flow Turning Percentage Classification Real time traffic situation The data is transferred to the central system and stored in a database. The central system contains powerful tools for searching the database, creating reports and exporting the stored traffic information.
DYNAMIC ROUTE INFORMATION
Dynamic rerouting system ramp metering variable speed limits and traffic guidance are some examples of making the transport system more effective and environmental friendly.
