Singapore’s National ITS Policy Lessons Learnt

1. Define – National ITS Master Plan

o Develop – ITS Implementation Programs

o Determine ITS Standards

o Ensure Interoperability and Scalability

2. Limited Funding Sources

o Prioritize

o Start small –

evaluate cost-benefits

Singapore’s National ITS Policy Lessons Learnt

3. Benefits of ITS

o Improve road safety and optimize road infrastructure

capacity

o Environmental

Reduce vehicle km traveled

Reduce congestion and vehicles idling on roads

• e.g. estimated annual S$40mil (US$29mil) savings in

economic time value for Singapore’s Expressway

Monitoring and Advisory System


• Traffic Management

• Road Safety

• Integrated Traffic Operation

Key ITS in Singapore

Area-wide Adaptive Traffic Light Control System (GLIDE)

Traffic Management - 1

11


Green LInk DEtermining GLIDE

• Allocates green time based on prevailing traffic flows

• Provide linking across junctions to give “Green Wave” along major corridors

• Centralised monitoring & fault reporting to provide prompt detection

• Detector loops underneath road surface to collect traffic data Loops

12


GLIDE - BUS Priority

Special Feature – “B”-signal for Bus Priority• Allows buses to proceed ahead of other vehicles at signalized

junctions

EMAS – System Set-Up

Detection• Collects traffic data such as

traffic flow, speed & occupancy• Detects incidents using video

imaging technique

Surveillance• Verification of incidents• Monitors traffic conditions using

video cameras with pan, tilt & zoom capabilities

16


EMASDisplays messages & travel times

on electronic signboards

Allows motorists to make

informed decisions

Recovery crew provides quick

response to motorists

Assist motorists for

accidents with minor injuries 17

Vehicle recovery crews tow away incident vehicles to nearest car parks

EMAS on Major Arterial Roads- EMAS Arterial

• Synergise management of traffic along both expressways & major arterial roads

• 10 major arterial road corridors (total length of 141.5km)

• Extension of EMAS coverage along major arterial road corridors to bring about better traffic and incident management network-wide

24


Our ITS

Parking Guidance System

(PGS)


25


J-EyesPGS

• Real time parking space availability information in key destination areas

• Help motorists to find available parking spaces faster and easier

• Reduce circulating traffic due to parking space search

• 3 busy areas of Singapore: Marina, Orchard, Harbourfront

26


Green Man + (GM+)

Road Safety - 1

27


Green Man +• Provides more green man time (3 to 13

seconds) for elderly and persons with disabilities to cross the road

• More than 1000 pedestrian crossings equipped with GM+

• Plan for another 1500 pedestrian crossings by 2026

ITS Centre

24/7 Operations Control Centre (OCC)• ITSC OCC

Manages traffic across island-wide road network

• 164 km of expressways

• >2,300 signalised intersections

Leverages on intelligent transport technology to realise ITS benefits

• Improved road safety and optimised road networks

• Environmental - reduce traffic congestion and vehicle km travelled
