Complete control : Slovenia has a new traffic control and management system in place and is justifiably proud of it

This article describes the new traffic control and management system in Slovenia that makes it possible to maintain optimum traffic conditions on the former Yugoslavian highways. Data is automatically collected in real-time cycles and analyzed, thus providing a basis for initiating traffic management measures. There are four levels of management. The first performs the function of controlling the operation of the whole system in the country. The second level controls regional subsystems. The third level allows local controllers to direct external subsystems and other automatic traffic management measures. The fourth level controls external subsystems that enable the collection of data from sections of the motorway and is used to alert motorists. The article also describes at length the system’s components and technologies.
