Tender description

The Swindon UTMC aims to facilitate consistently moving traffic and reliable journey times during peak periods, and to ensure that key junctions are not over-capacity and all available highway space can be utilised. The UTMC system will be able to formulate strategies by analysing live data such as vehicle position, passenger numbers and journey time information. This procurement relates to the common database: a cloud hosted system will support the common database, which will be central to the UTMC scheme. It will offer an effective method for improving the monitoring and management of networks (such as traffic signals and VMS) through data and automation, to help manage and improve traffic conditions. Full details relating to the services are provided in the tender documents. Swindon Borough Council (SBC) invites expressions of interest from suitably qualified and experienced service providers for the provision of a common database for an Urban Traffic Management and Control system (UTMC).
