Rostelecom has replaced variable information displays on Samara highways. The companys specialists provided a full cycle of work - from the purchase of certified Russian equipment to connection to dedicated communication lines for uninterrupted data transfer.
Rostelecom installed 9 large screens and 18 signs on Moskovskoe Highway and Frunzensky Bridge. The length of some screens reaches almost two meters in height and about six in length, and together with the side signs - more than eight. The weight of the electronics without supporting structures exceeded 460 kilograms. The devices are integrated into the regions intelligent transport system (ITS), which manages vehicle traffic and allows drivers to instantly warn about accidents, repair work or sudden deterioration in weather.
Vyacheslav Dobrynin, director of the Samara branch of PJSC Rostelecom:
We have been developing the regions intelligent transport system for five years. Today there are more than 1,000 software and hardware systems that transmit information about traffic jams to more than 400 controllers installed at traffic lights and intersections. The equipment allows you to monitor the density of traffic flow and regulate traffic on the roads. Center operators display messages on screens based on this information.
Sergey Neretin, Acting Minister of Transport and Highways of the Samara Region:
Modernization of the road network is impossible without the introduction of smart technologies. New devices were installed as part of the national project Infrastructure for Life. The equipment is located in areas of interchanges and public transport stops, which helps reduce accidents and minimize congestion. The capacity of road sections where ITS is used increases by about a quarter.
In addition to visual warning systems, the provider installed two automatic road weather stations on the Frunzensky Bridge. Thanks to highly sensitive sensors, they monitor in real time the condition of the roadway and atmospheric parameters, for example, visibility range, air temperature and humidity, intensity and type of precipitation.
The creation of ITS in urban agglomerations is one of the key activities of Rostelecom in the Digital Region cluster. Modern equipment makes it possible to increase the level of road safety and highway capacity.
