A consortium comprising 509 Indra and its local partners 510 Esteio and Dataprom is to install an integrated monitoring system, Sistema Integrado de Monitoramiento (SIM), for the Brazilian city of Curitiba.
The US$19.7 million project will expand the urban traffic management solution that prioritises public transportation throughout the city and equip it with new intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and an operations support system (OSS) for the city’s fleet of 2,500 buses.
The project also includes variable message signs (VMS), traffic detectors, a CCTV video surveillance system and video detection. The new systems will be integrated with Indra’s Hermes system, improving the management of mobility in real time by generating dynamic traffic plans that change according to traffic conditions.
Indra will also expand the current public transportation traffic light priority system, which is based on the geo-referential analysis of the vehicle's position to improve travel times. The Indra solution links the GPS system on each bus with the traffic light control centre to shorten or extend the time that lights are green, giving priority to public transportation.
