Helping you improve traffic management See what's on at Traffex 2024

• Presenting an artificial intelligence system to control traffic lights in real time.
• The system – the first of its kind – reads live camera footage and adapts the lights to compensate, keeping the traffic flowing and reducing congestion.
• We present the findings of deploying this AI traffic control to real-world junctions, in collaboration with Coventry City Council.

• Achievements within the transport community to date in this area of R&D, and its benefits in defining urban transport requirements.
• What's needed among councils, researchers and other players to enable AI to be used in a smart cities context?
• What are the barriers to accessing data, and how do we weigh up convenience against privacy? 

The council perspective:

• Reasons for considering civil MTE
• Getting members on board
• Selecting sites 
• Consultation and explaining it to the public

The consultant's input:

• Are the signs clear and legal?
• What else could be improved to increase compliance?
• Will the adjudicators expect advance signing?
• How big are your boxes?
• Can you find all your orders?
