• Infrastructure to Vehicle

• Infrastructure to Infrastructure

Combining information from various sources, with consistent driver/passenger information

Improved management of incidents


Why is the use of ITS still limited?

Telematics too complex ?

• Lack of public awareness, must be understandable for everybody

• Must be non-discriminatory

No cost – benefit understanding ?


No cost – benefit understanding ?

• For Customers

• For Road Operators

Insufficient funding ?

Missing policies and legal framework ?


Remember the challenges …



Main Challenges

1. Congestion

2. Accidents


3. Financing

4. Environment


Main Challenges

1. Congestion

• Huge growth rates, for freight and passenger transport

• Mounting congestion, costing


• Mounting congestion, costing e.g.

• in the EU : ~1% of GDP

• In the U.S. : ~$ 2.1 bn


Main Challenges

2. Accidents

• 22.8% of global injuries happen in road traffic WHO, 2002

• 1.2 million people die in road


• 1.2 million people die in road accidents per year WHO, 2001

• Traffic injuries will increase by 2020 to rank 3 (1990: rank 9) WORLD REPORT ON ROAD TRAFFIC INJURY


Main Challenges

3. Financing

Financial requirements in Europe:

• €250bn required until 2020 for TEN-V projects

• €600bn required to finalize TEN projects


TEN projects

• The EU budget is €8bn only !

• Thus, additional sources of financing are required, e.g. user based financing by tolling & road user charging, with Concessions, PPP, PFI, …

Main Challenges

4. Environment protection

• Mobility is growing, will cause permanent increase of pollution

• Historical centres & city centres are suffocating in traffic


are suffocating in traffic• Urban traffic is responsible for

~40% of CO2 emissions arising from road transport

• Impact of transport on environment: Global Warming


Key Problems in Transport in Europe

The European Commission has identified the following key problems faced by European transport:

� The loss of 40,000 lives each year on EU roads

• Road crash costs in Europe cost 1.5% of


GDP

� The consumption of 30% of all the EU’s energy by transport

� Mounting congestion, costing the EU economy 1% of its GDP

� The cost impacts form transportation on the environment is estimated with 1.1% of GDP

� The threat from terrorism to transport

ITS to reduce fatalities

• Speed monitoring and enforcement

• Wrong way driving detection

• Alcohol detection and engine locking

• Traffic Information


• Traffic Information

• eCall


Speed Limiting Instruments

• Automatic speed enforcement reduces road traffic deaths and serious injuries by 14%.

• Enforcement by police officers achieves a 6% reduction. (WHO)

• Publicizing the presence of speed cameras or radar reduces the incidence of crash and injury substantially.


• Speed limits are a matter of driver education and strong enforcement.

• Integrated speed monitoring better than punctual speed monitoring: �Section Speed Monitoring.

• *) WHO World report on road traffic injury prevention 2004


Section Speed Monitoring by Digital Image Processing

Principle: The license plate of the vehicle is stored with a time stamp at the begin and at the end of the road section, and the elapsed time is measured.

Example:


• Distance from A to B is 8 km

• Maximum allowed speed is 80 km/h

• ☺☺☺☺ Must results in minimum

travel time of 6 minutes

• �� If time is e.g. 5 minutes,

then speed is 96 km/h !!!

12.00h12.00h

12.06h ☺☺☺☺

12.05h ��

8 km

A B


Detection of Wrong Way Drivers

Intelligent digital video camera installed at exits

If a vehicle with wrong driving direction is detected, the following actions are started:

• report to a traffic control centre

• alarming police


• alarming police

• warning of drivers on that particular stretch of the road

right

Intelligent Digital Video Camera

Wrong direction!Wrong direction!


Hazardous Goods Management (HGM)

Integrated Data Management by:

• Actual information on the load of the vehicle is stored in the OBU - On Board Unit - and in the back office

Examples:


Examples:

1. In case of accidents an emergency action plan is started

2. Trucks are identified at critical locations, e.g. when approaching tunnels, and the trucks are spaced before entering the tunnel


Plan for Austria: Reduction of Accidents until 2010



Do we have faith in our road safety efforts?



3. ITS to finance infrastructure



Bottlenecks in Financing of Infrastructure

Bottlenecks in financing of road infrastructure exist for:

• New Roads

• Extensions

• Maintenance (e.g. bridges)

Impacts of lack of financing:

• Reduced quality of roads �accidents


• Reduced quality of roads �accidents

• Work zone completion is delayed �congestion and accidents

• New roads can not be built �congestion

Action: mobilize all available sources of financing, and improve the “finance engineering” tools:

• Concessions, PPP, PFI, BOT

• Road User Charging & Electronic Tolling for trucks and/or all vehicles


Intentions for Tolling

• Revenue collection for the service at bridges, tunnels, or sections of a road, or regions, in cities, or nationwide, or first level roads only, or all roads, …

• Support of national taxation, or financing of


• Support of national taxation, or financing of PPP, BOT, PFI schemes

• User based charging instead of time based fees to consider

• Environmental interests

• Behavior change

• Traffic Management (FCD)


Why Multi-Lane Free-Flow ?

• No obstruction of traffic – no

ITS to Develope High Quality Urban Transport

The most effective measures to reduce traffic volumes in urban areas are:

1. Charging (e.g. the London Congestion Charging)

2. Access restrictions (e.g. the “Zone a Traffico Limitato” in Rome)

3. Parking management (e.g. Winchester, Rotterdam).

Although there is no technologic challenge in introducing these measures, the


Although there is no technologic challenge in introducing these measures, the political challenge is considerable
