Chile. Transantiago, the integrated public transport system in the capital of Chile, has awarded Indra a contract amounting to 2.8 million euros to expand the monitoring and identification solution for vehicles traveling on exclusive roads for buses, a system that improves the service and mobility of public transport in the city.
The solution consists of a system of recording, management and analysis of video images, detection of license plates, applications of comparison of lists and generation of infractions. Indra's technology will allow the reading of car license plates in 106 new points of the city, which will be added to the 41 of the previous phase, and compare them with a database of vehicles authorized to travel on the exclusive roads. When a vehicle is not authorized, the system monitors to know if it is circulating on the exclusive roads due to the need to turn or only travels through them because there is no traffic, a situation that generates an infraction when it passes through two consecutive inspection points.
The new contract includes 106 panoramic cameras and 134 cameras for license plate detection, which report the context of the violation to the Strategic Inspection Center to verify it manually.
The expansion of this system to new roads will allow Transantiago to continue reducing the travel times of public transport in the city, making the management of this service more efficient and improving the quality of life of the millions of people who use public transport daily in Santiago.
Indra is one of the world's leading companies in the development and implementation of intelligent technology for traffic management and urban public transport, with references in countries such as the United Kingdom, the USA, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, the Philippines, China, Bulgaria and Poland, among others.
Cities such as London, Madrid, Dublin, Medellín, Curitiba and Manila, among others, have already relied on Indra's solutions to improve their urban mobility. This technology allows cities to achieve safer, more efficient and sustainable mobility, contributing to reduce traffic congestion and the costs involved, minimizing polluting emissions and promoting the use of public transport and integrated urban transport services (intermodal). In addition, smart mobility is an important step towards the smart city model.
