– modernization of road traffic through the introduction of the adaptive control system "Smart intersection".

Solution and results

At 13 traffic lights the specialists of SpetsDorProject the joint venture have installed more than190 inductive loop detectors, 13  Intelligent controllers "POTOK";

As a result of the work performed, the average speed of trams increased by 10%. The travel time of intersections by trams has been significantly reduced (on average more than 20%), without prejudice to other road users.

Installing buttons for calling the pedestrian phase traffic lights it allowed to reduce the cycle time by reducing the number of pedestrian phases during low pedestrian traffic or its absence. And also contributes to improving road safety.
