Siemens ITS - Intelligent Traffic Systems for Every Traffic Control and Traffic Planning Requirement

Thanks to many years of experience in markets all over the world, Siemens ITS (Intelligent Traffic Systems) / Traffic Control Systems is able to offer extensive international know-how and proven technical platforms in the field of traffic control and traffic guidance systems.

As an integral part of the Industrial Solutions and Services Group with an orientation towards the solutions and projects business, this division is focused above all on the segments of traffic control, traffic guidance systems, intelligent transportation systems and parking.

This basis enables us to supply economic and technical solutions that cater to the requirements and specifications of individual countries, regions and population centres. To meet this demand, ITS employs 2,500 experts worldwide.

SITRAFFIC - INTEGRATED TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

To increase mobility is one of the central tasks of Siemens ITS, therefore we integrate different technologies and services into solutions for modern traffic management.

Intelligent Transportation Systems made by Siemens ITS achieve this comprehensive approach of combining different technologies for the registration, processing and transmission of a variety of traffic data by providing an integrated traffic management system for all road users.

The SITRAFFIC system concept developed by Siemens ITS is an integrated system for road traffic applications, incorporating products, systems and processes that are coordinated precisely for optimum efficiency.

INTERURBAN TRAFFIC: TRAFFIC GUIDANCE SYSTEMS, FREEWAY CONTROL AND TOLL COLLECTION

Together with traffic planners we find solutions for avoiding traffic congestions and accidents.

Siemens ITS provides a range of holistic and integrated solutions to meet all of their requirements:

• Traffic monitoring and guidance video systems - register all crucial traffic data, enable the precise evaluation of the traffic situation at any time and rapidly initiate intervention measures - before congestions occur
• Tunnel control systems that take all tunnel safety problems into account - these include variable traffic signs, height control systems and signaling systems
• Freeway / motorway control systems - Siemens uses a smart combination of the most varied variable traffic signs, lane lights and traffic signaling systems to manage traffic
• Toll collection and road pricing - Siemens' traditional, semi-automatic and automatic toll collection systems are sophisticated solutions designed to secure smooth traffic flow

URBAN TRAFFIC: DATA DETECTION, TRAFFIC ENGINEERING TOOLS AND TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS

Siemens urban traffic control systems include:

• Customized traffic data registration systems, such as loop detectors, PIR (Passive Infra-Red) detectors and modern video detectors
• Traffic engineering tools - Siemens offers a broad range of efficient traffic control systems designed to reduce travel times, congestion and traffic-related emissions
• Public transport priority solutions - Siemens comprehensive solutions reduce waiting times at traffic signals; public transportation requirements are given particular attention

PARKING CONTROL: CAR PARK AND GUIDANCE SYSTEMS

Siemens sophisticated parking solutions solve the problem of finding car parks and securing smooth urban traffic flow.

• Dynamic parking guidance systems - LCD displays and prism billboards rapidly direct drivers to free parking space in the city, significantly reducing inner-city traffic
• Car park systems - the modular SiPark guidance system ensures smooth traffic flow in car parks and on parking lots, using ultrasonic sensors and arrow displays
• Pay and display machines - Siemens machines accept cash cards as well as coins, and enable constant control of the unit status

TRAFFIC TELEMATICS: TRAFFIC PLANNING AND DIGITAL ENFORCEMENT SYSTEMS

Siemens intelligent transportation systems prevent avoidable traffic, shift unavoidable traffic and conserve the environment. These systems include:

• Siemens traffic planning software - controls interurban signaling systems and enhances traffic flow within existing infrastructures
• Digital speed cameras and infrared lights - provide sophisticated detection of traffic offenders
