Project for SRA in Skåne Region (Southern Sweden)
Customer: The Swedish Road Administration
Location: : Skåne Region, Southern Sweden (including city streets in Malmö and Lund).
Description:
Cellint has been providing real-time road traffic information for the Swedish Road Administration since July 2007 through Info24, its Swedish integration partner, (www.info24.se). This project was initiated after a comprehensive bidding procedure where Cellints TrafficSense system was chosen by the Swedish Road Administration (www.vv.se) to deliver road traffic data in the region of Skåne, both on highways and arterials, including city streets in Malmö and Lund. Cellint's technical score was the highest among all bidders. Cellint's real-time traffic data was first delivered on July 1st 2007; only 3 weeks after Cellint signed the contract for this project.
Following the successful delivery, the Swedish Road Administration had decided to extend the term of this project and to expand significantly Cellint’s scope by 60%, to most of the main roadways in that area. This significant expansion covers both rural and urban roadways, city streets and intersections.
Sorin Sima, P&D Manager ITS of the Swedish Road Administration in Skåne Region said: "We are glad to have an opportunity to receive Cellint's real-time traffic data over a much larger metro area and we expect to expand Cellint's scope over additional roads by the end of this year. This expansion and extension of the project will enable the Swedish Road Administration to improve its service to the commuters and to maintain an efficient road transport system".
This is an unprecedented achievement for the European ITS industry since it is the first cellular-based traffic monitoring project in Europe to be positively evaluated and thus expanded by a European government agency, based on its successful results.
