Traffic management plans

In the end of October 2019, a meeting on the topic of traffic management plans (TMPs) was held in Maribor, Slovenia. Representatives from five Central European Member States have participated and discussed the possibilities of implementing actual changes in their processes for coordinating and activating TMPs. Participants encompassed motorway operators, developers and automobile club representatives from Austria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Italy and Slovenia.

An agreement was reached on a unified way of communication in live operation between different traffic control centres, starting already in December 2019. An application will be employed enabling that there is no longer a need for communication via email (however it can be maintained for information purposes) when exchanging important information between control centres. In this way, the activation and management of TMPs will become much easier and more transparent, which is most favourable in the context of transnational traffic management in the central European area.

Implementation of activities on traffic management plans will be provided through the project Crocodile 3 Croatia. Project Crocodile 3 Croatia is logical follow up of project Crocodile 2 Croatia and represents the upgrading of the technical scope that will be adopted through the project Crocodile 2 Croatia.
