Wayside Equipment
Public transport is attractive to the user if it is fast, punctual and travels within an optimised network in quick succession. Journey time analyses however continue to show that especially in inner city areas, time spent by buses and trams waiting at traffic signals often accounts for as much as 30% of the total journey time. This means that vehicles spend about a third of their journey time at a red light.
Our AVLC system includes a solution for traffic light pre-emption for buses and trams. This significantly shortens journey times, making public transport much more attractive to the passengers. In addition, the transport authority saves on resources - thanks to optimised block planning fewer vehicles are required to provide the same service.
