Centralised Bus Priority System Dublin Public Transport Interface Module (DPTIM)
SLIDE 2 Background
- Dublin Public Transport Interface Module.
- Building on existing SCATS infrastructure.
- Centralised system - No extra onsite equipment necessary.
- Virtual Detector configuration.
- No extensive civil works required.
- No additional cost to quantify performance of bus services for other projects.
- Allows for network bus priority – multiple traffic junctions.
- Project consists of DPTIM Interventions, Signal Optimisation and Light Civil Work.
