SmartMobility Road , Transportation , Tunnel No Comments »February 15, 2012 – Telvent GIT, S.A., a leading real-time IT solutions and information provider for a sustainable world, announced today that the company has been awarded a contract by the Transcity JV, with Brisbane City Council as the end customer, to implement the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) for Legacy Way (formerly Northern Link) in Australia. Legacy Way is a 4.6km road tunnel that will connect Brisbane’s western and inner northern suburbs, delivering travel time savings of up to 44% when it opens. The ITS contract is valued at around $30 million.
Brisbane’s metropolitan area has seen strong population growth over the past decade. As the region continues to grow, it continues to put pressure on Brisbane’s already congested road network. Legacy Way completes the missing link of motorway standard road between Brisbane’s Centenary Motorway and the Inner City Bypass (ICB).
