ITS systems for road surface condition management in winter conditions

Road winter maintenance sets up a demanding tasks before road authorities. Efforts to minimaze impact that severe winter conditions cause on safe and undisturbed traffic flow, utilize a significant number of specialized vehicles and personel, thus engagement of financial resources. Therefore, the activities aimed to acquire relevant meteorological data and data about road surface condition in real time represent certain challenge before specialists. A big challenge is posibility to treat the road surface with apropriate agent in shortest time, in order to prevent ice formation and by it reduce winter maintenance cost. Article analyses road surface condition real-time monitoring systems, as well as stationary automated surface treatment systems, combined in unique Ice early warning and prevention system. Safe and secure road traffic, with minimized environmental impact, economic optimization in function of ITS according to human needs.
