A review of traffic congestion and road capacity has shown that congestion in urban centres island-wide has grown considerably over the last decade.
Project objectives include the real time monitoring and control of traffic signal operations; construction of real time traffic data collection system (speed, volume); construction of a national traveller advisory system; and construction of a national high speed broadband communication system.
