There is a number of ITS operating in Singapore, which harness the power of technology and are becoming essential components within our transportation network.
1)Electronic Regulatory Signs (ERS)
Displays prohibited turning movements during specific time periods.
2)TrafficScan
Uses taxis as probes on the road network to provide motorists with information on the traffic conditions island-wide.
3) Signalised Pedestrian Crossing
Facilitates time-sharing of road space between motorists and pedestrians.
4) Parking Guidance System
Provides real-time information on parking spaces availability of participating developments.
An example of a computerised traffic light signalling system which coordinates signals and adjusts the green time accordingly.
A traffic monitoring system installed at major signalised traffic junctions. These cameras alert operators at the Intelligent Transport System (ITS) control centre of any congestion or disruption to the traffic flow so that action can be taken quickly.
An incident management system – has also been put in place to monitor and manage traffic along the expressways. It provides early detection of traffic problems, quick recovery service for motorists in distress, and also alerts motorists to abnormal or dangerous traffic conditions ahead.
As the way forward, LTA would continue to develop and harness ITS technologies to solve transport problems. Future developments could include improved traveller information systems. Such systems will provide reliable real-time traffic information to drivers, or accurate bus arrival information to commuters.
