What to do next?
• To make sure the VDS / VIDS system running good and reliable all the time
• To make sure and maintain system stability .
• To make sure the integration and data accuracy from Remote Control Centre to LLMTMC are in order.
• To fully utilize and execute of VDS / VIDS data system for statistic of traffic volume data, congestions data, travel time and travel speed data.
• Able to generated data on congestion map and accessible.
• To look into crowd sourcing.
Some initiatives (Mobile Service)
• MHA – LLMInfoTraffic
• PLUS – Plus Expresways
• Penang Bridge
• PSKLM - Travel Smarter
Traffic Info – Mobility Services
• Information Services Provided;• Traffic Information; Incident,
• Scheduling works; maintenance
• Hotline Number
• CCTV Images
• Toll rate
• Highway facilities; R&R, Layby
• Sharing of information
• Social media; Facebook, twitter
Mobile Services: WAP, Apps. (Android & Iphone), SMS – 15800
Mobile Services; Technology move towards crowd sourcing.
• Pre Trip and On Trip Information
• Traffic status based on user info sharing
• Real time coordinate, POI and traffic condition
Are We Already OK?
• Crowed based apps • not governed by the authority – no body responsible.
• Apps provided by Concession Companies and MHA • without navigation, not so interactive and user friendly?
• Information is confirmed by the operator.
• Preferred apps?
Way forward for Mobile Apps
• Apps by CC or Authority with navigation function?• Invest on navigation system?
• High cost• Need updating and maintenance
• Crowd source?• Need the crowd – sufficient number of users?
• Way forward • joint venture with the big player?
• High cost.
• Look in big data policy and implementation.

Ramp Metering
• To manage and control the traffic flow with basic traffic light at the specific location.
• One vehicle per green each lane
Benefits of Ramp Metering
• Reduce congestion on freeway
• Maintain more steady traffic flow and regular travel speeds on freeway
• Allow more cars to use the freeway
• Increase safety by helping to reduce crashes associated with stop and go traffic and high-speed merging
• Allow merging vehicles to enter freeway traffic more smoothly
Case Study by Others Country
• Benefits of Ramp Management
• Ramp management strategies produce benefits in many areas:
• Safety—Ramp management improves the flow and mix of vehicles that enter and exit freeways, reducing disruptions that can lead to collisions. Ramp metering is particularly effective at breaking up large platoons of vehicles, thereby smoothing traffic flow.
• Mobility and Reliability—Ramp management can reduce congestion, which in turn increases travel speeds and reduces travel times. The 1995 FHWA study of ramp metering in North America found that implementing ramp management strategies in Detroit increased average speeds and volumes by 8 and 14 percent, respectively.
• Environmental Benefits—FHWA studies have shown that ramp management, by reducing congestion and delay, also decreases the total vehicle pollutants released into the environment. In Minneapolis, MN, ramp metering reduced overall emissions by 1,052 metric tons (1,160 tons) annually, according to the study Twin Cities Ramp Meter Evaluation: Executive Summary, sponsored by Mn/DOT in 2001.
• Institutional Efficiency—In addition to the tactical benefits, ramp management also promotes institutional cooperation by serving as a conduit through which agencies can collaborate to address transportation needs. Because ramps often join facilities operated by multiple agencies, ramp management can break down barriers that exist between the agencies, enabling them to work together more effectively on other issues as well.
How Ramp Metering Panel Works
1. Speed, occupancy data continuously collected from main line
2. Vehicle pulls up to stop bar
3. Vehicle detected, signal turns green
4. Vehicle merges onto freeway
Glow Line In The Dark• The new innovative technology to enhances on safety and guidance driving night time.• Selected location with high potential accident or risky area.
Conclusion
• Lets move forward in providing precise and timely information to the users towards achieving better services for the comfort and safety of the road users.
• In order to become SMART HIGHWAY
