Intelligent Transport Infrastructure (ITS) in Russia

Intelligent transport systems (ITS) are mainly developing in the central part of Russia. For example, in Moscow, such systems can reduce the length of traffic jams, optimize public transport routes, timely notify drivers and passengers about the situation on the road, etc. ITS on federal highways, as a rule, are introduced on Russian high-speed toll roads. The tasks of ITS on the routes are to increase the level of traffic safety, reduce operating costs for road maintenance^[1].

The smart roads ecosystem includes solutions for collecting and processing data on vehicles and road infrastructure for decision-making, including:

• transport flow detectors;
• adaptive (smart) traffic lights;
• means of automatic recording of traffic violations;
• electronic means of non-stop fare payment;
• parkomats;
• connected information boards;
• automated lighting control systems;
• other connected objects (for example, automatic road weather stations, road controllers, etc.);
• systems GPS/.GLONASS

As a rule, all components of the "smart road" are combined on the basis of a single platform. However, even alone, they allow you to solve a large number of local problems. For example, traffic light signals at intersections change based on the current traffic situation, which increases road capacity and reduces the likelihood of traffic jams. Automatic recording of traffic violations forces drivers to be more responsible, which in turn reduces the likelihood of accidents. Intelligent street lighting management saves energy.^[2]

ITS elements

ITS in urban agglomerations

Typical architecture of ITS of urban agglomeration

The automated weather support system has been operating since 2007. Almost 1 thousand weather stations and almost 1.5 thousand video cameras are installed on federal highways. The situation on federal highways is monitored online.

The operational monitoring system includes automated traffic intensity metering points, their number reaches 1,000. Such systems are used by the Rosavtodor Situation Center.

Analytical control system of transport complex (ACS TC) is in the process of creation. It is implemented to effectively monitor the state of the country's transport complex and the level of its technological safety. ACS TC is planned to be integrated with all the most important information resources of both the transport industry and other sectors of the economy.

The State Highway Navigation Information System (GIS NAD) is in the process of being established. GIS NAD will form the basis of almost all navigation and information services.

ITS on federal highways

• Transport Technology Portal

• Platon Toll collection system for vehicles weighing more than 12 tons - RT-Invest Transport Systems (RTITS)
• Unified Federal Center for Automatic Recording of Traffic Violations (CAFAP)
• NTI Autonet
• Avtodata Platform
• Regional Navigation and Information System (RNIS)
• Smart Traffic Light System

On federal highways, ITS is arranged somewhat differently than in megacities. But the use of ITS, as in the city limits, allows you to improve traffic safety, increase cargo turnover, passenger turnover, reduce operating costs for road maintenance, etc.

Situation centers on federal highways analyze information from various sensors and cameras, constantly monitor the number of cars, weather conditions, etc. Some highways have information boards that warn drivers about various unfavorable road conditions.

In this regard, the experience of paid sections of federal highways is indicative. For example, almost 400 km of roads operate on the Don M-4 in paid mode. The section from 21 to 93 km is a road of the technical category 1A - a highway with separated oncoming traffic, the absence of traffic lights. ITS in this area allows you to track traffic, control traffic, notify drivers about weather conditions, inform about changes in the situation on the road.

Yellow terminals with the inscription SOS are installed along the site every 2-4 km, with the help of which emergency commissioners can be called. Assistance will also be provided when contacting the contact center of the toll road operator 8-800-707-23-23. If necessary, the road emergency commissioner calls emergency services, helps with the evacuation of transport to a special parking lot.

As a rule, on toll road sections there is all the necessary infrastructure: hotels, gas stations, car repair shops, cafes, toilets, multifunctional zones, etc. According to Roman Starovoit, head of Rosavtodor, in 2016, experts analyzed and optimized the work of service points along federal highways. He noted that the redundancy of service zones leads to a congestion of transport and accidents. As a result of the analysis, a general layout of service areas was created. According to the plans of Rosavtodor, 800 new facilities and 250 MFPs will be created in the near future.

Mikhail Mishustin

Such solutions allow automating traffic management processes and improving road safety, "said Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

The program for the introduction of intelligent transport systems is being implemented in urban agglomerations with a population of more than 300 thousand people. As part of the project, information and navigation systems for tracking public transport are being installed in the regions.

Information boards for drivers with data on the traffic situation and smart traffic lights with detectors for analyzing traffic intensity will appear on the streets of cities. This will optimize intersection mode and reduce congestion.

Financing is provided within the framework of the state program "Development of the transport system." The project complements the integrated development of road transport infrastructure in the context of a significant increase in urban traffic.

In total, in the federal budget for 2024, more than ₽3,2 billion were allocated for the implementation of measures to implement ITS in the regions. The funds are distributed between 47 constituent entities of Russia, taking into account the population and the need for modernization of transport infrastructure.

The largest amounts of financing will be received by the Samara region (₽134 million), the Chelyabinsk region (₽125,8 million), the Sverdlovsk region (₽116,7 million) and the Republic of Tatarstan (₽114,6 million).^[4]

Reduce road accidents with smart transport systems

In October 2024, it became known that the use of smart transport systems on Russian toll roads led to a significant decrease in accident rates, confirmed by research by specialists from the Unified Operator company and the Moscow Automobile and Road State Technical University (MADI). This data is supported by the experience of operating automated traffic control systems (ADMS) on the central ring road (TsKAD) and other key routes. According to the results of research, the use of ITS helps to prevent thousands of emergencies, as well as reduce the risk of accidents by three quarters.

According to ComNews, the automated ASUDD system allows you to quickly inform drivers about the road situation and adjust speed modes depending on changes in weather conditions and other factors. An example of the effectiveness of this system is the work on the TsKAD section from the Neva M-11 to the Volga M-7, where ITS recorded 182 thousand potential incidents in two years, warning drivers about them. In 9 thousand cases, emergency commissioners were sent to the scene of the incidents, who received information from the system in real time.

How digitalization improves road safety and quality in Russia

As of the beginning of 2024, the length of the roads of the support network of Russia reached approximately 140.5 thousand km. Active digitalization of transport infrastructure continues in the Russian Federation, which increases the quality and safety of roads in the regions. This is stated in the materials of the Federal Road Agency (Rosavtodor), published in March-April 2024.

The concept of "reference network of roads" was first enshrined in Russian legislation in 2023. This infrastructure is the "framework of the national road network" and provides stable logistics links between the main points of transport demand generation. It is reported that by the beginning of 2024, the length of regional or inter-municipal roads included in the reference network amounted to 74.3 thousand km. Including this is 2.6 thousand km of roads on the territory, DPR, and LPR. Zaporozhskaya Hersonskaya regions

Moscow

The main program for the modernization of the road economy in Russia is the national project "Safe Quality Roads," the amount of funding for which in 2024 will amount to more than 600 billion rubles. A significant part of the activities of this program is occupied by digitalization, covering all life cycles of roads - from construction to operation. We are talking about digitizing real data, as well as digital modeling of the road system in order to simplify management. Information on traffic, hazardous situations and the state of the roadway is collected through various hardware complexes.

Data digitization is a priority direction in the process of digitalization of roads, since data can be further analyzed and automated the adoption of some decisions. The depth of all digitalization and automation of processes in this area depends on the success of the digitization stage, "says Dmitry Parshin, director of the Artezio development center (part of the Lanit group), quoted by the Vedomosti newspaper.

In the direction of security, the expansion of the network of surveillance cameras continues. As of the beginning of 2024, such Russian complexes are able to record about 60 types of traffic violations. Among them are compliance with the requirements of stopping, the rules for the use of seat belts or motorcycle helmets, violation by the driver of the rules for using the phone, crossing the "safety island," driving between lanes and riding without the dipped headlights or daytime running lights turned on.

At the same time, experts say that, in addition to controlling functions, automation should include active hazard warning tools, as well as traffic planning systems. One of the promising areas is the development and implementation of intelligent transport platforms that will allow you to collect, process and disseminate information about traffic in real time.

Digitalization of the industry also involves the introduction of unmanned technologies. For example, specially equipped robotics can be used to monitor the condition of the roadway and infrastructure. Such a system operates in Tyumen: the neural network is able to identify four types of defects - cracks and potholes on the roads, deviations in markings and signs. The collected data is displayed on a virtual map with a date, which helps in troubleshooting problems. In the future, unmanned vehicles are planned to be used for the delivery of goods and passenger traffic. Among other areas of digitalization, the creation of models of road systems and ground structures for a more convenient and operational solution to the problems of monitoring their integrity, modernization and renewal is named.^[6]

Domestic companies occupied the main share of the Russian market for intelligent transport systems

Russian regions are increasing investments in the digitalization of transport infrastructure and the introduction of intelligent transport systems. This conclusion was made by analysts of RuSat Infrastructure Solutions JSC (RIR, part of Rosatom State Corporation) based on the results of its own research, the results of which were presented on April 5, 2023.

Since 2019, regions and state-owned companies have spent almost 100 billion rubles on such decisions. The most in demand for April 2023 are photo and video recording systems, traffic control and comprehensive solutions. At the same time, in most cases, domestic software and hardware complexes are used, the share of which is close to 100%. According to the company's experts, thanks to state support, the introduction of digital solutions in transport will continue and the total market volume by 2024 will grow to 40-50 billion rubles. In general, intelligent transport systems for this period (until 2024) will have to appear in 27 cities of Russia.

As of April 2023, RIR is implementing transport infrastructure digitalization projects in more than 20 cities of Russia. For a comprehensive vision of the situation and understanding of the picture in the country and regions, the company's analysts investigated the market for intelligent transport systems (ITS), key players on it, and the largest projects. During the study, more than 2.5 thousand contracts posted on the public procurement portal for 3.5 years were analyzed. The total amount of prisoners from January 2018 to November 2022 amounted to almost 96 billion rubles.

Speaking about key projects, it is worth noting the Vologda agglomeration.

Customers strive to implement comprehensive projects for several years in advance, which ensures the predictability of ITS implementation. As an example - the introduction of ITS in the Vologda agglomeration, together with Rusat Infrastructure Solutions. A two-year comprehensive project made it possible to almost completely reach the first level of maturity of ITS. An integrated approach to the implementation of ITS projects is widespread, as it allows the customer to ensure that the implemented subsystems will work in conjunction and can be combined within the framework of the integration platform, - said Yuri Ermolaev, Head of the Transport Development Department, RuSat Infrastructure Solutions.

The most popular in terms of both the number of contracts and the total cost are means of photo and video recording of traffic violations - over the past two years, 960 such contracts have been concluded for 47.2 billion rubles. In second place is the traffic management system (ASUDD): 114 contracts for 9.5 billion rubles. On the third - comprehensive ITS: 130 contracts for 5.4 billion rubles.

Regions leading in ITS implementation. More than 38% of the total volume of contracts for ITS falls on Moscow (30 billion rubles). Also significant shares are occupied by such regions as the Republic of Bashkortostan (6.2 billion rubles) and St. Petersburg (5.2 billion rubles). In terms of quantity, in addition to the indicated, the Krasnodar Territory and the Kemerovo Region stand out .

The results of the study indicate that in 2022 the demand for ITS remained high, and in 2023 it is not necessary to wait for its fall.

Traffic light management, traffic flow monitoring, public transport management, weather monitoring, traffic police and emergency detection, and an integration platform will be in high demand. Agglomerations are guided by the choice of these subsystems, because they are mandatory for reaching the first level of maturity of ITS. From our practice, we see that, in addition to complying with the recommendations of the Federal Road Agency, the implementation of these subsystems allows agglomerations to combine disparate existing and newly implemented solutions within the framework of the ITS integration platform, create prerequisites for control impact due to modern traffic light control systems, as well as introduce data sources (transport detectors) for ITS and "digitize" traffic, - added Yuri Ermolaev.

It is specified that the new document has made changes to the state program "Development of the transport system." In particular, the program has added new stages for the introduction of intelligent transport systems in cities implementing these projects, as well as their main parameters.

For example, in such cities it is planned to gradually cover all public transport with information and navigation systems. With their help, people will be able to choose a convenient route and track the transport they need online.

It is also planned to connect at least 85% of traffic lights to traffic control centers. This is necessary to analyze the intensity of traffic flows in order to ensure that drivers have an optimal crossing mode and reduce congestion.

In addition, at least 60% of parking spaces are supposed to be connected to parking space management systems. This solution will help reduce traffic and make it easier for drivers to find free seats.

Also, within the framework of the program, information boards should appear on the roads with data on at least nine parameters, including weather conditions, repair work and the situation on the roads as a whole. With their help, drivers will be able to choose the optimal route and bypass traffic jams.

By December 2022, work on the introduction of ITS is underway in urban agglomerations with a population of over 300 thousand people. Now 49 cities from 42 regions take part in it, including from Bashkiria, Buryatia, Udmurtia, Chuvashia, Yakutia, Altai, Trans-Baikal, Krasnoyarsk and Khabarovsk territories, Belgorod, Voronezh, Kaluga, Kemerovo, Kirov and Kursk regions.^[9]

Traffic management equipment is the most popular element of the ITS ecosystem in Russia

Within the framework of the national project "Safe High-Quality Roads," 42 constituent entities of the Russian Federation have been identified that are introducing intelligent transport systems (ITS) to create an optimal environment for drivers and residents of agglomerations. Of these, Rostelecomatika (part of the Telematics concern) implements projects in 21 regions of Russia and, based on the accumulated data, analyzed the most popular elements of ITS. This was announced on November 29, 2022 by the Telematics company.

According to the company, the set of implemented peripheral equipment and various modules and subsystems of intelligent transport systems depends on the features of the transport network in each region.

The most demanded equipment and subsystems of traffic management, which can reduce the number of congestion, regulate the intensity of traffic flows and increase the level of safety for all road users. These tasks are solved by installing video detectors of transport and traffic lights. The first in November 2022 occupy the largest share of more than 51% among integrated peripheral equipment in the regions. Equipment the road department with controllers, which regulates the operation of traffic lights, notifies the dispatcher about the current situation and recommends solving problem situations, is 27%. The top three are closed by video surveillance cameras of the state of roads and road infrastructure - 20%. Displays and signs of variable information, road weather stations, occupy a share of about 1% of ITS peripheral equipment. Data centers (DPCs) and traffic control centers (CUDDs) are present in each region, of which every second region created or modernized them as part of the development of ITS agglomerations.

Among intelligent software solutions, ITS most often installed subsystems for monitoring traffic parameters, traffic lights, video surveillance and detection of accidents and emergencies. Every second region introduced a transport modeling and forecasting module and a geo-information system for collecting, storing, analyzing and graphically visualizing data as part of the creation of ITS. The meteorological monitoring subsystem and the coordinated traffic control module for automating the control process of traffic lights are also popular.

As of November 2022, the leaders in the development of ITS , taking into account the scale of the introduction of instrumental subsystems and the number of installed peripheral equipment among the projects implemented by Rostelecomatics, can be called such cities as Samara, Novokuznetsk and Krasnodar, other regions are actively developing in this direction and designing the following stages of implementation of intelligent systems.

A single transport system management platform (EPUTS), which unites all existing intelligent systems and allows you to manage the entire transport complex of the agglomeration in a "one-stop shop" mode, has been introduced only in some regions. At the same time, EPUTS is the heart of ITS and its most important part, which must be implemented at the next stages for consolidated management of the ITS ecosystem.

Given the fact that ITS projects in Russia have begun to develop comprehensively only over the past few years, the regions focus on components that help solve urgent problems: 40% to 70% of agglomerations install subsystems that help track, warn and change traffic conditions in real time and control traffic lights depending on the development of the transport situation, which expands the capabilities of the road infrastructure and allows more efficient use of existing transport networks. shared Dmitry Tselikov, General Director of Rostelecomatics (part of the Telematics concern)

3.9 billion rubles will be allocated to the regions for the introduction of ITS

As it became known on February 19, 2021, 3.9 billion rubles will be allocated to the regions for the introduction of ITS in 2021. This was stated by Denis Kiryukhin, head of the Rosavtodor department at a meeting of the working group on the introduction of intelligent transport systems in the constituent entities of the federation, the official website of the federal road agency said.

In 2020, 22 pilot regions transferred about 3 billion rubles for the development of "smart roads" in urban agglomerations with a population of over 300 thousand people. However, some of the agglomerations that received state support could not meet the deadlines for preparing tender documentation and conduct competitive procedures by the end of 2020. In particular, the Rostov, Saratov, Samara, Ivanovo regions, the Stavropol Territory and Buryatia had to abandon part of the transfers from the federal budget. As a result, the unallocated balance of interbudgetary transfers of 494 million rubles was sent to the reserve fund of the Russian Government.

One of the successful examples in the regions on the introduction of modern technologies for the automation of traffic control was Tatarstan. According to the newspaper Realnoe Vremya, for the creation of a unified platform for managing the transport system and other solutions for the Kazan and Naberezhnochelninsky agglomerations, Tatarstan was allocated 370 million rubles for two years.

However, the implementation of the project in the region faced difficulties. Problems arose due to the fact that often data is stored in different information systems. Therefore, it is necessary, for example, a single integration system or platform that would combine, for example, solutions for monitoring the work of public transport, including taxis.^[13]

172.3 billion rubles allocated in the Russian Federation for smart transport systems

As it became known in January 2021, Russia was allocated 172.3 billion rubles for the development of smart transport systems. This budget is designed for three years - until 2023. The corresponding order of the Government of the Russian Federation at the end of December 2020 was approved by Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin.

According to the press service of the Cabinet, federal funding will allow the regions to create modern and high-quality road infrastructure, as well as introduce intelligent transport systems. Such technologies allow you to automate traffic management processes and help reduce the number of road accidents.

According to Rossiyskaya Gazeta, about 2.86 billion rubles will be received by southern cities. Artificial intelligence for roads will be created in cities with a population of more than 300 thousand people. Transport neural networks will appear in the agglomerations of Krasnodar, Rostov-on-Don, Volgograd, Astrakhan, Sevastopol and Crimea.

Astrakhan will join the program in 2022 and will receive 120 million rubles. These funds will create a network of video cameras, as well as climatic, environmental, weight and size and meteorological sensors. The devices will send information to the data center.

Based on these data, the neural network will be able to control traffic lights, information boards, interchangeable LED road signs and regulate road lighting. For example, if a traffic jam is predicted on a certain section of the transport network, then artificial intelligence will open a "green wave" there. When the weather worsens or in fog, road lights will automatically turn on. The system will also allow you to distinguish the numbers of violating machines and quickly transfer data to the traffic police.

The project will be supervised by the director of the digital transformation department of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation Bakanov, who was previously involved in the Gonets satellite communication system.

The development of smart transport systems is carried out within the framework of the national project "Safe and High-Quality Roads." Its goal is to increase the share of regional roads that meet regulatory requirements by 2024, reduce the number of accidents, introduce new requirements and standards, as well as automated technologies for organizing traffic and monitoring traffic rules, the Government of the Russian Federation said.^[14]

Mishustin instructed to introduce automated lighting systems on the roads

Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin instructed to introduce automated lighting systems on the roads. This was announced on October 2, 2020 by the website of the Government of the Russian Federation.

The head of the Cabinet instructed the relevant departments to prepare proposals that will stimulate the introduction of automated road lighting systems, which, adjusting to the time of day, will help reduce energy costs and thus "save budget funds at different levels," the document says.

In addition, ministries and departments will need to work out the possibility of gradually introducing restrictions on road lighting with low energy efficiency and prepare decisions on the development of a voluntary certification system for lighting devices. The latter is needed to reduce the volume of counterfeit products.

The government expects that the implementation of a set of measures will reduce electricity costs by an average of 30% while maintaining the existing level of lighting on roads.

Reports on these topics must be submitted to the Cabinet by the end of the first quarter of 2021. Prior to the same period, it was instructed to prepare a government act determining the procedure for compensating losses to the contractor, which he incurred when bringing the power grid equipment in line with the requirements. Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Economic Development, the Ministry of Energy, FAS and Rosstandart will be engaged in it .

The Ministry of Transport is already working on proposals to introduce smart traffic lights with traffic sensors, raised zebras and the British Friendly Transition system in Russia.

Earlier in 2020, the Accounts Chamber published a report on the results of checking the content of Russian roads and told why they are bad.

Non-cash fare payment project in Sochi

NIITS developed in 2017 recommendations for the administrations of Russian cities on the effective implementation of elements of a "smart city" without attracting budget funds. It was possible to develop recommendations in which it is possible to monetize some of the elements of a smart city. The recommendations involve combining into one investment program different elements of a smart city that are attractive to private investors.

NIITS has developed a set of documents necessary to implement the elements of a "smart city" at the expense of a private investor in Sochi. One of these elements is the complex Intelligent Transport System. Documents contain recommendations on organizational, legal and technical appearance of ITS. The estimate of the size of private investment in such a system of the city of Sochi is more than 380 million rubles, in the absence of city expenses.

In accordance with the recommendations, ITS includes non-cash payment for travel in public transport and its dispatching. Such a complex will improve the quality of passenger transportation services.

Non-cash payment will increase the efficiency of fare control, ensure the introduction of a flexible fare system, personalized accounting for the provision of benefits, increase the collection of fares, improve the working conditions of employees of the passenger transport system, and ensure the possibility of introducing a non-capacitive fare payment scheme. Dispatching will ensure the quality of traffic management of vehicles performing passenger transportation in the city, the quality of scheduling and route analysis, automation of maintaining a register of vehicles of carrier companies, analysis of data on the speed of these vehicles, automation of the formation of a forecast of the arrival of public transport at stopping points and other improvements.

The uniqueness of the NIITS concept is that for the first time IT is part of the city's ecosystem, which includes a comprehensive solution: dispatching and cashless payment, tied to other elements of a smart city. Traditional cashless payment solutions are being implemented in isolation from the holistic smart city system.

Following the developed recommendations, city administrations can, through the implementation of some elements of the "smart city," develop the remaining elements of this ecosystem without attracting budget funds. On the basis of ITS, for example, elements of the "Sochi tourist platform" are based. Thus, the means of payment of a non-cash fare payment system in public transport becomes universal. It can be used, among other things, to pay for other municipal services in Sochi, for example, beaches and other tourist and excursion services.

FSB arrested the head of the Moscow "smart transport"

The general director of FSUE Sveko of the Federal Security Service (FSO) Oleg Filippov was detained in November 2017 by the Federal Security Service (FSB) on suspicion of embezzlement of funds that FSUE received from the Moscow government. This was reported by the Rosbalt news resource, citing sources in law enforcement agencies, the^[21]

Filippov was detained as a result of a search at the enterprise and taken under arrest for two months. It is not known exactly what amount was allegedly stolen by him. The arrest was based on part 4 of article 159 of the Criminal Code of Russia, which provides for punishment for theft committed fraudulently and on an especially large scale.

Research and Markets: the global market for smart road solutions will reach $2.6 billion by 2022

According to forecasts of the research agency Research and Markets, the market for solutions for building "smart roads" will reach $2.6 billion by 2022 with a CAGR of about 24%. The main driver of the market will be solutions aimed at ensuring road safety. The governments of many countries have seriously taken care of the increase in the number of road accidents, and information technology can solve this problem, the agency noted.

The most massive segment of the smart road market is traffic flow detectors. Analysts at Research and Markets suggest that during 2016-2022, these sensors will continue to occupy a leading position in the market due to increased investment and the emergence of a large number of specialized startups.

J'son & Partners: Forecasts and Prospects of Intelligent Transport Systems in Russia

The transport industry is one of the most promising areas for implementing the concept of the Internet of Things. This is due to the need and possibility of automating traffic control processes and excluding the subjective human factor^[22]

According to forecasts, J'son & Partners Consulting (Jason & Partners Consulting) the total number of connected facilities of intelligent transport systems (ITS) Russia in will increase by 46% - from 29.4 thousand in 2015 to 42.9 thousand in 2020. At the same time, the first place will be taken by photo and video recording complexes (FVF), ahead of detectors in terms of the number of connections [Smart transport^[23]

According to J'son & Partners Consulting, by 2020 there will be almost 43 thousand connected facilities in the ITS segment in Russia. The largest in terms of the number of connections will remain such peripheral devices as photo and video recording complexes and transport detectors

.

ASUDD Market Assessment and Key Trends

In Russia, the most developed ITS/ASUDD systems have been implemented in Moscow and St. Petersburg. This is primarily due to the special status of these cities of federal significance, with the urgent need to solve the problem of overloading the road infrastructure and reducing the number of accidents.

So, according to the GKU TsODD, currently the following functions as part of the IT of the city of Moscow:

• more than 2 thousand traffic lights,
• more than 2 thousand video cameras of television viewing,
• more than 6 thousand detectors for monitoring traffic conditions,
• 700 km of fiber-optic communication lines,
• transport model (80 thousand buildings and structures, more than 45 thousand retail facilities, 4600 public transport stops, 190 thousand interchanges and intersections, 1.2 million turns in directions, etc.),
• 157 information display boards,
• 805 complexes of photo and video recording of traffic violations,
• more than 100 thousand parking spaces are controlled.

One of the main trends in the field of ITS/ASUDD is the gradual transition from foreign software and peripheral equipment - to domestic (import substitution).

In particular, since 2014, Avtodortsentr (one of the main partners of the Moscow construction complex in the construction of ASUDD) has been developing its own software and at the same time is looking for replacing imported elements - video cameras, detectors, traffic lights, controllers - with domestic ones. To do this, the company works directly with the manufacturers of this equipment.

In St. Petersburg, import substitution in the field of ITS/ASUDD takes place in the field of replacing certain elements of foreign production - road controllers, transport detectors and industrial switches, as well as separate software (for example, models of the road network graph) - with products of Russian developers. In general, the share of the Russian Spectrum system in terms of the number of traffic lights connected to this system in May 2016 was 87%.

According to J'son & Partners Consulting, by mid-2016, at least 50 ASUDDs were introduced in Russia in large and medium-sized cities and on certain sections of federal roads

.

Despite the high performance of connected objects to the ADMS (up to 100% of traffic lights in individual cities), the analysis of incoming information and subsequent changes from transport detectors to the operating mode of traffic lights can be carried out manually. Today, this significantly reduces the value of such systems in terms of cost savings. On the other hand, the transition to a fully automated service requires a certain time to work out optimal control algorithms, which will further lead to a decrease in the influence of the "human factor."

Main suppliers

The study analyzed the solutions of the largest Russian (RIPAS SPB, Komsignal, Avtomatika-D, etc.) and foreign (Telegra, Cross and SWARCO) suppliers of ASUDD in Russia.

As noted above, one of the main trends of recent years is the replacement of foreign-made products and an increase in the share of domestic systems. For example, the geography of use of RIPAS SPB products includes such cities as St. Petersburg (the main sales market), Moscow, Tver, Yaroslavl, Krasnodar, Sochi, Perm and other cities. Systems created on the basis of ASUDD Micro (Avtomatika-D CJSC) operate in 6 cities of Russia, 5 of which use controllers manufactured by Komsignal LLC as peripheral equipment of the ASUDD. In total, Comsignal implemented 12 operating systems in Russia. Another fairly large supplier is also the Elsistar company (ASUDD Megapolis). Among the supplier companies from the post-Soviet space, it is worth mentioning the Ukrainian "System Service" (ASUDD "COMCON").

In addition, new developers appear. For example, work is currently underway to create the VZGLYAD ASUDD.

In the context of

the economic crisis and import substitution policy, new opportunities have opened up for Russian suppliers and their market share will continue to grow. This is primarily due to the high costs of introducing products from foreign vendors.

For example, in Kazan, the equipment of one intersection based on ASUDD from SWARCO (Austria), on average, cost 8-9 million rubles. The cost of equipping the remaining intersections (traffic lights) in the capital of Tatarstan was estimated at about 1.3-1.5 billion rubles.

2007-2015

Federal Pilot Project "Innovative Roads"

The federal pilot project "Innovative Roads" has been launched in Russia since the end of 2012, Rossiyskaya Gazeta reports. The goals are ambitious: the introduction of innovative technologies should several times increase the quality and durability of roads, reduce the number of accidents and reduce the severity of their consequences, ensure the safety and comfort of all road users. The center of the entire project will be an intelligent transport management system.

The concept of "Innovative Road" has been developed, its authors are preparing technical specifications, after which a competition for the best developments will be announced. The winners of the competition will have the right to implement their technical solutions at three pilot sites: a section of the road in Tatarstan, in the Ryazan region and in Moscow. As part of the "Innovative Road" they will test a fundamentally new road surface, "digital" road signs, laser markings, economical city lighting lamps and traffic lights.

However, the authors attribute the greatest effect of innovations on the roads to the introduction of an intelligent transport system that will prevent traffic jams and ensure traffic safety. The basis of ITS is the continuous collection, processing and analysis of information on the speed and density of transport flows, accidents and conditions for the movement of machines. As part of the pilot project, many different sensors and smart cameras will be installed along the entire length of the test tracks, and satellite video surveillances monitoring complexes will be installed on vehicles, GLONASS which will allow accumulating information about their location and condition in a single control center.

"Pilot zones of" innovative roads "will allow you to select the best and most effective technical solutions for replication throughout Russia, but now, judging by the experience of the largest megacities in the world, we can assume high performance of intelligent transport management systems," comments the press service of the Russian Business Systems Group. - Within the framework of ITS creation, we offer a number of ready-made, proven, flexible solutions using M2M and GLONASS technology. On the basis of our multi-service telecommunications platform, it is possible to organize a single ICT complex expanding depending on the customer's needs for monitoring and managing the movement of vehicles, creating unified situation centers for transport infrastructure, systems for managing emergency services, mobile communications services for motorists. "

Transport flow detectors

Transport detectors are the most massive element of the intelligent transport infrastructure (ITS). As a rule, they are equipped with several sensors of different types: a microwave radar for measuring speed, an ultrasonic detector for assessing the dimensions and classification of vehicles by class and a multi-channel infrared detector for providing counting of cars and determining traffic intensity.

By the time of the introduction of ITS in Moscow and the beginning of the work of the Situation Center for Traffic Management of the Central Traffic Center in 2013, more than 6.7 thousand traffic sensors were installed. Similar projects have been introduced in St. Petersburg, Kazan, Yekaterinburg and other large cities of Russia.

Smart traffic lights

ASUDD are designed for centralized or local automated traffic control (transport and pedestrian flows). Such systems are a set of peripheral devices connected into a single network with a central control point (CPU).

Peripheral devices as a part of APUDD/ITS (on the example of APUDD KAD) include:

• road controllers;
• traffic flow (traffic) detectors;
• signs and displays of variable information;
• CCTV cameras (video cameras);
• automatic road meteorological stations (weather stations);
• subsystems of estimated weight control;
• speed control systems;
• other "connected" devices.

Based on historical and current data received from sensors and cameras, traffic flows are regulated (for example, priorities are assigned). Both the selection of ready-made control models and the adjustment of individual existing parameters to current conditions can occur.

According to consultants J'son & Partners Consulting, projects to create integrated ASUDDs will be actively developed in our country, primarily in connection with the need to further combat traffic jams and within the framework of a general strategy to increase road safety. An important factor is the possibility of replenishing regional budgets by automating the processes of fixing and issuing fines for traffic violators. In 2016, a number of large cities, for example, Nizhny Novgorod, Samara, etc., announced contests for the creation of such systems.

The first intelligent (adaptive) traffic lights appeared in Moscow in 2007 on an experimental 7.5 km section. The sensors located on them read data on the density and speed of vehicles, weather conditions, etc. The information is transmitted to a single system control center over wireless communication and is used to optimally control the transport flow. As of the beginning of 2015, a significant proportion of traffic lights in the capital are connected to the automated traffic control system (ASUDD). Projects for the implementation of "smart" traffic lights are also developing in other large cities - St. Petersburg, Sochi, Kazan, Chelyabinsk, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Yekaterinburg, etc.

The first centrally controlled traffic lights through a computer appeared in the United States and Canada in the 1960s. In 2010, IBM developers planned to patent a technology that allows you to remotely turn off the engines of cars approaching an intersection if a red light lights at a traffic light. There are plans to install 380 smart traffic lights in Copenhagen that will be set up to give priority to cyclists and public transport. If the project is successfully implemented, the speed of cycling around Copenhagen will increase by 10%, on buses - by 5-20%.

Means of automatic recording of traffic violations

Complexes of automatic recording of violations of the Rules of the Road (SDA) include both photo and video recording means ("cameras") and special technical means (measuring devices).

As of the beginning of 2016, in Russia, several thousand control zones were covered by complexes of automatic recording of violations of the Rules of the Road, since November 2014 their number has grown by 36%. The main trend in this segment is the expansion of the range of types of detected offenses. In addition to fixing the facts of speeding, such systems record violations of the rules of travel of regulated intersections, facts of going to the oncoming lane and driving under the "brick," violations in the zones of railway crossings, facts of failure to provide an advantage in the movement of pedestrians in the zone of pedestrian crossings and the movement of vehicles in lanes for public transport, violation of the rules of stopping and parking, etc.

The cost of installing a stationary complex of photo and video recording on average is about 4 million rubles. However, systems quickly pay for themselves both in terms of economics (fines) and efficiency (reducing the number of DPTs). For example, in Tomsk, several stationary complexes for 10 months of 2015 collected fines of almost 58 million rubles.

In the Moscow region, stationary complexes for fixing traffic violations for the 1st half of 2015 brought 560 million rubles to the budget. Thus, funds from private investors can also be attracted to the implementation of such projects, which can accelerate the pace of road equipment with stationary and mobile complexes of photo and video recording of traffic violations.

Electronic means of non-stop fare payment

The only electronic means of non-stop fare payment used on Russian toll roads at the beginning of 2016 is DSRC transponders. These are relatively inexpensive devices attached to the windshield of a car and provide wireless communication with antennas at charging points. To encourage the use of transponders, drivers are given discounts on travel.

A larger project was launched on November 15, 2015. The Platon toll collection system was created in order to ensure compliance with the procedure for collecting fees for compensation for damage caused to public roads of federal significance by vehicles with a permitted maximum mass of over 12 tons. The owner of the vehicle pays a fee using one of the options for calculating the fee:

• execution of a one-time roadmap;
• the use of an onboard device equipped with a satellite navigation system/". " GPSGLONASS

In the latter case, the debiting of funds takes place in automatic mode.

The main deterrent to the development of the Plato system is the social tension associated with the implementation of this project, and a great resonance in the media. So, on February 20, 2016, truckers in several regions of Russia began a strike demanding the abolition of the Platon system. They urged not to take orders and not go on flights until March 1, 2016. It was reported that heavy truck drivers from 43 regions of Russia were participating in the action.

Parking meters

The first paid parking zone appeared in Moscow on November 1, 2012, by 2015 it was significantly expanded. Parking meters are also installed in other large cities - St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Krasnodar, etc.

Information boards

The first boards with information about traffic congestion appeared in Moscow at the end of 2011. By the beginning of the work of the Situation Center for Traffic Management of the Central Traffic Center in 2013, their number increased to 150, an expansion of the project was planned. The scoreboard was intended to inform drivers about traffic congestion, weather conditions and major incidents on the tracks.

The main types of information boards include (Fig. 1):

• weather information and warnings;
• warnings about traffic jams and detour options;
• electronic road signs;
• distance and travel time to a specific location;
• informing about stolen cars and cars hiding from the scene of an accident;
• informing about the time of arrival at public transport stops;
• information on availability of free parking spaces and navigation.

Automated Lighting Control System

Automated outdoor lighting control systems (ASUNO) are widely used in Russia. In 2014, Rosavtodor installed more than 400 km of artificial lighting lines on the federal road network, in 2015 it was planned to expand the network by another 200 km. ASUNO allows you to control the brightness and promptly notify road workers about emergency situations on the lines.

The first ASUNO in Lipetsk was commissioned in 2005. Of the 242 outdoor lighting power supply points, 142 were connected to it. The system provides prompt switching of city lighting modes according to the "Evening mode" and "Night mode" schedule to save electricity consumption.

A significant driver for the development of the intellectual transport system (ITS) in Moscow will be its preparation for the 2018 FIFA World Cup and the Confederations Cup in 2017. In the near future, a competition is expected to be held to conduct design work on the installation of technical means of traffic management on 75 sections of the road network of the capital by the end of 2016: photo and video recording complexes, information display boards, video surveillance cameras, controlled road signs, traffic lights.
