Scope:
Nationwide traffic signal management modernization, covering system delivery, testing, integration, deployment and long-term maintenance and support.
Solutions:
Centralized Traffic Signal Management, EcoTrafiX™ Command, RSMP integration
Key Outcome:
Centralized, real-time control and monitoring of 360+ traffic signals across Sweden
Key highlights
- Dual-city deployment: Operational system environments in Stockholm and Gothenburg support traffic signal facilities across Sweden’s regions.
- Unified operations: Centralized, RSMP-compliant control and monitoring of approximately 360 traffic signals.
- Real-time intelligence: Integrated monitoring, traffic analytics, forecasting, alarms, and decision support.
- Built for continuity and growth: Resilient architecture designed to support long-term operation and future expansion.
The challenge: Modernizing nationwide traffic signal control and monitoring
Trafikverket’s existing ÖTS2 platform centrally managed approximately 360 traffic signals across Sweden. As the system reached the point where modernization was required, Trafikverket needed a scalable replacement that could improve efficiency and reliability while integrating with existing traffic signal infrastructure.
The objective was to establish a consistent, nationwide operational environment based on the Nordic RSMP standard, enabling centralized visibility, coordinated management and a future-ready foundation for traffic signal operations.
ÖTS3 Project
The solution: One future-ready environment for nationwide operations
Kapsch TrafficCom implemented EcoTrafiX™ Command as the foundation of Trafikverket’s new centralized traffic signal management system. Adapted to the Nordic RSMP protocol, the solution enables real-time supervision and control of traffic signal facilities while integrating with Trafikverket’s existing operational environment.
The deployment is supported by system environments in Stockholm and Gothenburg, collectively covering 4 traffic management centers and 6 geographical regions across Sweden. Its modular architecture brings monitoring, traffic data, reporting, integration and operational management together within a coordinated platform.
The project covers three principal areas:
- Delivery and testing: Project management, installation, commissioning, testing and integration with Trafikverket’s staging and operational systems.
- Implementation: System configuration, deployment and testing across the relevant traffic signal systems.
- Maintenance and support: Preventive maintenance, system support, and technical services for at least four years, with extension options.
