  3. Intelligent Transport Systems • SANRAL is in the process to implement Intelligent Transport Systems for freeways in Gauteng. • The system utilizes different technologies such as traffic detectors, CCTV and electronic tags in vehicles to collect information about traffic conditions and to detect incidents • The information collected is processed at the Network Management Centre (NMC) that is located at the Midrand Fire Station. At/from the NMC - • The public is informed about traffic conditions/incidents • Emergency services are informed about incidents and provided with real time images from the incident • Intelligent decisions to optimise traffic flows are taken.

  4. ITS (continued) • Information is provided to the public by means of: • Variable (electronic) Message Signs (VMS) • Radio reports • SMS services • A web page • SANRAL almost completed the first phase of the project for the Ben Schoeman: • The NMC was set up • Fiber optic communication backbone in place • 70 CCTV cameras • 10 Variable Message Signs • Traffic detectors
