TomTom has enhanced its TomTom Traffic product for traffic management centres, enabling traffic managers to capture and act on every minor change in flow. Simacan, a traffic and logistics IT specialist, merges various road authority datasets such as motorway matrix signs with the TomTom Traffic product. TomTom and Simacan will work together going forward to develop more joint applications, improving traffic flow in the network by smarter use of infrastructure and technology.
“We see great potential for road authorities in this new business arrangement with TomTom” said Laurens Schrijnen, Director at the Traffic Innovation Centre. “This initiative paves the way for new and innovative use cases that will improve overall traffic management.”
