By / 9 years ago / News / No Comments

By using GPS probe data from INRIX, the Danish Road Directorate will be able to monitor traffic flow and gridlock across its entire national road network more effectively than ever before.

Director of traffic management at Danish Road Directorate, Charlotte Vithen, said: “By using INRIX’s expertise in real-time data and through deploying this technology across our entire road network, we will be able to detect extraordinary traffic queues quicker, issue earlier warnings of congestion and improve the way we manage road incidents to achieve a smoother flow of traffic across Denmark.” 

Bryan Mistele, CEO, INRIX, said: “INRIX is excited by this partnership and committed to helping the Danish Road Directorate manage its national road network effectively, improve interurban mobility and provide high quality, timely information to individual travellers, cities and businesses across the country. We also see this as an opportunity to showcase best practice and how technology innovation can improve urban mobility in other countries and cities across Europe and the rest of the world.”
