📰 The MegaBITS project and strategic managers, Ronald Jorna and Wim Dijkstra, were recently interviewed for an article published in the Dutch magazine Stadszaken.nl. During the interview, they had the opportunity to discuss the successful implementations of Bicycle Intelligent Transport System infrastructure during the BITS project, the predecessor to MegaBITS.
🚦Ronald highlighted one of the successful implementations, in Gemeente Hengelo, Netherlands, where the local authorities introduced smart cameras that spot passing cyclist at an early stage. These cameras have proven to be highly effective because, as soon as three or more cyclists are detected, the traffic signal immediately turn green. Not only accelerating the journey for cyclists but also reducing pollution from cars, as this reduces the need for frequent stops and starts.
