Customer Profile: Traffic Control

"We probably could have delivered this level of real-time visibility and achieved these results without RTView, but it would have been extremely expensive and difficult both to deliver and to extend. RTView is what made this particular BAM solution possible."

DELCAN, of North York, Ontario, implemented a state-of-the-art Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITS). At the core of system, generating all graphics display functionality and input control, is SL-GMS.
  • As a part of the Hong Kong Core Program, the advanced Intelligent Traffic Management System is used to control roads, bridges (including an 8 lane, double deck bridge) and tunnels linking Hong Kong with new the Chek Lap Kok airport, spanning nearly 30 miles through the mountains.
  • The ITS system uses six UNIX workstations and a large dynamic wall map with SL-GMS displays, showing status of traffic using dynamic graphics and controlling it using numerous input control devices at central control rooms, 3 satellite control centers and 4 remote control centers.
  • Each computer controls 60-70 devices in different regions; each device collects and manages over 100 signals.
  • The ITS system is used to direct traffic over a 6 lane bridge and high-speed rail lines using variable message signs, lane control signals, over 500 traffic signals and communication links.
