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.
