Traffic Management Centre
CCTV for Traffic Management
South Dublin County Council’s Traffic Management Centre is responsible for the management of traffic operations within the administrative area of the Local Authority.
It does this by utilising Urban Traffic Management Control (UTMC) systems and CCTV monitoring of the road network within the administrative area of the local authority.
UTMC systems are designed to allow the different applications used within modern traffic management systems to communicate with a central common database. This allows previously disparate data from multiple sources such as UTC / SCOOT / RMS traffic signals control, Variable Message Signs (VMS), car parks, air quality monitoring stations and meteorological data, to be amalgamated into a central common database. UTMC maximizes road network potential to create a more robust and intelligent system that can be used to meet current and future management requirements.
