ITS2 Webinar - Smart Motorways

The ITS2 series is a partnership between ITS United Kingdom and ITS Australia sharing best practice in transport technology across the globe. In the webinar on February 3rd we’ll be looking at smart motorways, their deployment, safety and benefits.

Aimsun’s Mohammad ‘Saif’ Saifuzzaman will be describing how the interface between STREAMS® traffic management system and Aimsun Next helps traffic operators at the MRWA in traffic management centre in Perth learn how to control managed motorways within a risk-free digital environment.

Main points:

  • Aimsun’s simulation software provides a safe and efficient digital training ground.
  • Aimsun Next connects to STREAMS traffic management solution.
  • Within STREAMS, the operator makes traffic management changes such as lane closures, speed reduction or ramp metering.
  • The operator observes the impact of those changes in Aimsun Next.
  • Operators can use simulation to practice dealing with a variety of traffic incidents, without having to wait for them to occur in real life.
  • Managers can evaluate action plans to minimize incident impacts.
  • The solution can also be deployed to plan roadworks and other events where lane restrictions would be needed.

Time: 8am in UK, 7pm in Australia (Eastern Daylight Savings Time).
