Uniting What’s Next in Traffic

As a global leader in intelligent traffic solutions, we are driving the next mobility revolution.

 

Through digitalization and disruptive technologies, we empower cities, highway authorities, and mobility operators to create a new era of mobility—where vehicles are shared and connected, tunnel automation is autonomous, tolling is smart, and traffic systems are adaptive for simulation and prediction. This enables a truly proactive approach to traffic management.

 

Our vision is to transform cities into places where people can live, work, and move more freely—with a better quality of life, fewer accidents, and cleaner air. Through our expertise and solutions, we are committed to addressing the climate crisis.

 

Urban mobility must and will change. And we will lead the way!
