Intelligent Urban Traffic Management Systems – Takeways from Martin City

The article focuses on transportation, specifically urban public transport. Intelligent transport systems are used for optimizing and managing road traffic, mobility management, increasing safety and the smooth flow of road traffic, improving the administration and maintenance of road infrastructure, enhancing public transport services, and reducing environmental impact. The main objective of the work is the proposal of the implementation of a smart transportation concept based on Zurich infrastructure in Martin City. Focusing on systems that can make urban transport more efficient is one of the most important topics in transportation, alongside operational safety and ecological transportation. The first part defines the concept of intelligent transport systems and discusses their benefits. The core of the work focuses on the operation and implementation of active traffic preference. The final part discusses the positive aspects of implementing traffic management systems and the negative issues affecting this process. It also briefly describes the potential use of the latest technologies in this type of transport, in direct cooperation with the established active vehicle preference for urban public transport and monitoring intersections, air quality, and road surface conditions.
