Created in partnership with Highways England (HE), the NTIS DATEX II Portable Journey Time Solution generates real-time journey time information for road users using data from the National Traffic Information Service (NTIS). Pioneered by MVIS, the system was the first such solution to enable real-time journey time information from the NTIS to be displayed on portable variable message signs (VMS).

Fully compliant with HE’s Major Project Instruction MPI-54-062016 the NTIS DATEX II Portable Journey Time displays journey time information, which is refreshed every five minutes, on any number of VMS-Cs along major project schemes over four kilometres in length to keep road users informed of the travel time to the end of the road works. Congestion or delays are identified within tens of metres of their vicinity ensuring the messages displayed are relevant to the area affected.

Alternative messages can be displayed if the maximum journey time is exceeded and email alerts may be sent to multiple recipients to keep them fully up-to-date, enabling them to override journey time messages if required using MVIS’ WebStudio™.

Key Features

• Email alerts to multiple recipients if the maximum journey time is exceeded.
