URBAN TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
Managing traffic in an intelligent way in an increasingly urbanized world remains a particular challenge. The more efficient use of existing roadway capacities, harmonized traffic flows, emission-related traffic control, the prioritization of public transport means and the focus on pedestrian and cyclist safety are some of SWARCO’s approaches to better manage urban mobility. SWARCO has proven that its solutions in continuous traffic monitoring and adaptive traffic control help reduce travel times.Adaptive traffic control systems by SWARCO acquire traffic data and actuate optimum management strategies to keep city traffic in motion.

INTERURBAN TRAFFIC MANAGEMENT
Smooth traffic flows are essential for travelers to get comfortably and in time to their destinations. Smooth traffic flows rely on accurate pre-trip and on-trip information. We trace and detect traffic data, know how to use them and give guidance by clearly showing the relevant information to the driving public. Many European highways and expressways linking towns and cities are equipped with energy-efficient and clearly readable LED signaling technology from SWARCO. Automatic Incident Detection, tunnel management, Bluetooth traffic data acquisition, and the temporary use of the hard shoulder of motorways are just a few elements of our interurban traffic management capabilities.

FROM IDEA TO IMPLEMENTATIONSWARCO ASSISTS YOU IN SOLVING YOUR TRAFFIC (MANAGEMENT) PROBLEMS
24
Constantly growing traffic volumes, congested roads,
and emissions are a challenge for traffic infrastructure
operators. Very often good ideas are not implemented
due to the lack of financial resources in the public
budgets. SWARCO is convinced that added values
beyond quality products and solutions must be
offered. These include alternative financing concepts
and public-private partnerships in order to get road
infrastructure projects going. SWARCO can give you
advice in these matters.
Design – Build – Finance – Operate (DBFO)is one model how the idea of an infrastructure project can be-come reality within a private-public partnership approach.In cooperation with strong partners we are able to lend you our expertise at all stages of road safety and traffic management projects.
Special events require special solutionsBig events like the Olympic Games or soccer championships challenge the host cities with regard to visitor flows and traf-fic management. With TOTAL TRAFFIC SOLUTION SWARCO offers a comprehensive range of modules that take into account all aspects of such big events, from visitor flow control on local and regional level via the organization and coordination of public transport to management of parking spaces.
