Description

Highways England are seeking to engage a successful supplier to deliver a specific bespoke traffic modelling tool developed for Smart Motorways for managing and optimising traffic flows.

The Smart Motorway programme is moving at pace and the provision of this toolkit is critical to calibrating the algorithms that control the congestion speed limits. The toolkit shall also provide a monitoring function for the performance of Motorway Incident Support & Automatic Signalling (MIDAS).
