Road 2 Pilot

This Project is Currently Underway!

The Project Goal From Monitoring Traffic to Controlling Traffic

From Monitoring Traffic to Controlling Traffic

Create a centralized dashboard that will allow for real-time decision-making regarding traffic management. The dashboard will allow a proactive traffic management approach integrating a fusion of various data sources to enhance traffic analysis.
This dashboard empowers decision-makers in the traffic center to optimize traffic events more effectively and uncover valuable insights.

The project will focus on a segment of Road 2 between the Netanya and Gelilot Intersection.

Netanya and Gelilot Intersection, Israel

The Traffic Mangement Platform

Create a system that enables real-time monitoring of traffic flow (hazards, traffic congestion, bottle-necks) as well as, real-time monitoring of public transportation for optimization. The system will also allow for the analysis of traffic and innovative research tools (real-time & past events).
