Incident detection and congestion management

Incident detection and congestion management is critical for Traffic Management Centres (TMC’s). Congestion could be caused by a faulty SCATS detector, route pre-emption requests, or rerouted traffic from an incident in another location. On signalised corridors, stopped vehicles and delays are often expected, particularly during the peak periods. Addinsight incident detection capability considers this inherent variability to differentiate between recurring congestion and abnormal events. It learns to differentiate between day of the week, time of year, school and public holidays.
