Umovity, the joint brand uniting Econolite and PTV Group, together with Tatweer, a leading provider of professional engineering services and innovative Smart City mobility technologies, have successfully deployed the first adaptive ramp metering system in the Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Installed on Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Street, one of Abu Dhabi\u2019s busiest corridors, the system uses real-time data to regulate traffic entering the highway, reducing congestion, delivering environmental benefits, improving travel reliability and unlocking estimated savings of up to US$2.6 million annually in delay-related costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project combines Econolite\u2019s software for real-time local control with ST Engineering\u2019s advanced traffic management software for ramp metering co-ordination and monitoring, delivered in close collaboration with Tatweer, which led local engineering, system integration and deployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The solution is aligned with Abu Dhabi\u2019s broader intelligent transport vision and designed for interoperability with the Emirate\u2019s Intelligent Transport Central Platform (ITCP), leveraging a technology environment in which PTV Group\u2019s software solutions are already widely used for real-time traffic modelling, simulation and network prediction. This ensures long-term integration and provides a scalable foundation for future expansion across the network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nicholas Ghia, CEO, Umovity Software, stated that: \u201cThis project demonstrates the real strength of Umovity – combining Econolite\u2019s field-proven traffic control technologies with a broader ecosystem of advanced traffic management and analytics capabilities. By delivering a solution that integrates seamlessly into Abu Dhabi\u2019s existing mobility platform, we are enabling measurable impact – reducing congestion, improving travel reliability and creating long-term value for the city. This is exactly the kind of collaborative, future-ready approach needed to scale intelligent transport systems.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
