C1K4 – Component Sustainable transport: investment "Digitalisation of road infrastructure"
These are investment projects to digitalise road transport, ensuring interoperability, more efficient management and improved safety. The aim of the investment is to provide reliable information on the transport system in order to improve the acquisition and exchange of traffic data on the state of transport infrastructure and the real-time movement of vehicles.
- Digitalisation of 70 kilometres of roads
01/2021 – 12/2025
The investment includes, among other things, the upgrade of the fibre optic network and the purchase of road detectors for the collection of real-time traffic data, including a simulation tool for planning, controlling and forecasting traffic on the motorway network, and application tools for users. By allowing real-time adjustments of travel speed limits, the traffic manager is expected to be able to prevent accidents and congestion and reduce emissions.
