New Adaptive traffic control system based on Omnia platform has been adopted in Kazan since 2011.

Welcoming guests, Rustam Minnikhanov noted that use of Adaptive traffic control system in Kazan considerably improved traffic situation in the city.

Besides, the parties discussed possible cooperation in production of glassware in partnership with Vasilievsky Glass Plant, glass light-reflecting microballs and traffic paints. The system enabled increasing traffic capacity, providing priority for public transport or special vehicles, avoiding traffic jams and decreasing amount of harmful emissions in atmosphere.

Swarco AG officials noted that the adaptive system was completely integrated and is ready for further development. The system is becoming more popular on the threshold of World Football Cup 2018.

Adaptive traffic control system can also be used for developing such projects as “smart” city lighting, “smart” parking, and navigation equipment.
