In 2006 the Province of Noord-Brabant developed a system that was introduced as a pilot project consisting of various Dynamic Traffic Management / ITS-systems that worked in conjunction with each other. The concept "the Informative Road" is used primarily as roadside system and is ready for newdevelopments in the field of in-car information. Siemens Nederland N.V. is taking care of most of the system development. In addition to the technical realization, evaluation is another important part of the pilot project. The traffic engineering and behavioural effects of the system play a central role in the evaluation. The evaluation will be completed at the beginning of 2007 and the provincial executive of the Province of Noord-Brabantwill make a decision about the application of the "Informative Road" concept at other locations in the province.
