Optimising motorway control algorithms: New technologies/data
This project aims to perform a comprehensive diagnostic of TMR’s motorway control algorithms and opportunities for optimisation using emerging technologies.
Framework to connect planning and real-time traffic management
Develop performance-based, multimodal network management to better connect longer- and shorter-term transport operations activities and land use planning.
Better video analytics for traffic data collection via fixed cameras
The outcome of the project is to have the capability to obtain relevant data analytics from fixed cameras & have the capability to run those analytics themselves.
What C-ITS technologies for national deployment in Australia?
A comparative assessment of C-ITS technologies & international standards, helping inform future decisions for nationally consistent approaches for deployment.
