Siemens Mobility showcases solutions to reduce traffic congestion at ITS World Congress

CETRAN test track: autonomous driving supported by intelligent infrastructure

“We believe that at some point large cities must decide and actively influence what the available space for traffic is used for in order to keep transportation efficient. This may include giving preference to certain mode of transportation and shifting modes. Singapore is a leader in applying intelligent infrastructure, autonomous vehicle technology and traffic management systems. Singapore has committed to convert their bus systems completely to autonomous buses by 2030, which will make commutes safer and efficient. We are proud to collaborate and partner with Nanyang Technological University at the Centre of Excellence for Testing & Research of Autonomous Vehicles (CETRAN) to enhance these technologies,” said Michael Peter, CEO of Siemens Mobility. “In addition, we are exploring the use of AI in traffic scenarios, from our digital lab in the heart of the city-state.”
Siemens Mobility will be showcasing the following topic areas at booth 343 during the conference: Mobility Operating System, Shared Autonomous Mobility, Tunnel Management, AI in traffic scenarios, intermodal mobility and traffic simulation. In addition, it will be running autonomous vehicle and intelligent infrastructure demonstrations at CETRAN throughout the week. 
Siemens has been doing business in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland since 1843. The company (including Siemens Healthineers and Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energies) currently has some 15,000 employees in the United Kingdom, and 15 manufacturing locations generating revenue of around €5.8 billion. The UK is in the top five regions, globally for Siemens.
