COMMUNITY
A community of:
- 4 member states
- 30 Road operators
- Meeting The Trans-European corridors to:
- Implement ITS solutions to improve efficiency through alleviating congestion at strategic bottlenecks ( 5% congestion volumes reduction)
- Improve safety
- Dissiminate travel time information
- Improve cross-border traffic management and information including cross-border travel time
- Improve truck parking occupancy information
- Reduce environnemental impact (5% CO2 emissions reduction) using cost-efficient solutions
RESULTS
- 70% of the MedTIS2 project has been delivered (status in December 2017):
- 3600 km Traffic Management services deployed and enhanced
- 1600 km of supporting Traveler Information services deployed and enhanced along the corridor.
- 53 Million Euros investment with High ROI (less than 5 years)
- Implementation of new evaluation methods based on congestion reduction objectives including socio-economic benefits and ROI calculation
FUTURE
- Extend the implementation of traditional proven ITS to continue to deliver further benefits along the ITS Corridor
- Facilitate introduction of connected and automated vehicles experiments by equipping networks with ITS and new telecommunications systems
- Needs
- Consistent and sustained investment for ITS deployment projects with 5 year horizon
- Clear policy objectives in link with the field of connected/automated vehicles against which the project can be measured
