By enriching
its data with GPS tracking, DCC can produce detailed reports on areas of the
network where buses are frequently delayed, and take action to ease congestion.
The IBM Smarter Cities Technology Centre has provided us with a lot of
valuable insights, says OBrien. For example, the IBM team created trace
reports on bus journeys, which showed that at rush hour, some buses were being
overtaken by buses that set off later. Working with the citys bus operators,
we are looking at why the headways are diverging in that way, and what we can
do to improve traffic flow at these peak

The IBM Smarter Cities Technology Centre has provided us with a lot of
valuable insights, says OBrien. For example, the IBM team created trace
reports on bus journeys, which showed that at rush hour, some buses were being
overtaken by buses that set off later. Working with the citys bus operators,
we are looking at why the headways are diverging in that way, and what we can
do to improve traffic flow at these peak times. Thanks to the work of the IBM
team, we can now start answering questions such as: Are the bus lane start
times correct?, and Where do we need to add additional bus lanes and bus-only
traffic signals? OBrien continues: Over the next two years, we are starting
a project team for bus priority measures and road-infrastructure improvements.
Without the ability to visualize our transport data, this would not have been
possible.
