Ile-de-France Road Directorate (DiRIF) has selected 3264 PTV Group, in collaboration with 163 Inrix, to monitor traffic and congestion in real-time across the Greater Paris metropolitan area, which serves a population of 12 million people.
DiRIF will use the PTV Optima analytics platform, which delivers traffic-related insight based on real-time data from Inrix, allowing DiRIF to monitor traffic flow and gridlock across its road network more effectively.
Inrix will provide high-quality floating car data from its crowd-sourced network of connected vehicles and devices for analysis. PTV Group will integrate and process the data to deliver DiRIF a more accurate and comprehensive picture of the traffic situation on the region’s roads at any given time.
DiRIF’s traffic management centre handles monitoring, control and publishing of accurate information on traffic conditions on all major roads across the Greater Paris region. By using floating car data in conjunction with a scalable real-time traffic analytics platform, it has a more immediate view of what is happening across its strategic road network, improving traffic flow across more than 2,000 kilometres of road.
According to PTV and Inrix, the GPS-based system is cost effective and enables DiRIF to identify congestion hot spots across its network and provide drivers with accurate, real-time information about travel times. It will provide with the information to manage the road networks in the Greater Paris region more effectively, enabling it to achieve its objective of ensuring a high level of performance for its entire road network, as well as providing highly accurate user information.
