TENET CUTLAS-UTMC provides integration technology to Plymouth City Council
Plymouth City Council has chosen TENET Technology's CUTLAS-UTMC integration Suite to provide the integration technology needed to bring together multiple operational subsystems strategically. Urban Traffic Management and Control (UTMC) is at the centre of Plymouth City Council’s Intelligent Transport Solutions to tackle congestion monitoring and management.
Plymouth City Council has existing UTMC-compliant VMS and car park counters providing car park guidance for the city centre, these will integrate directly into CUTLAS-UTMC, ensuring that Plymouth City Council’s existing investment in UTMC-compliant on-street equipment is preserved, it also demonstrates the value in adopting a UTMC approach; without UTMC compliancy, Plymouth City Council would not benefit from "plug and play" elements to their system.
An important factor in Plymouth City Council’s evaluation for the UTMC system was the supplier’s ability to provide proven technology to support future developments. TENET demonstrated that their extensive list of existing modules and their forward expansion plans embracing new technologies complemented and enhanced Plymouth City Council’s own strategic directions.
CUTLAS provides the tools to gather, analyse and present data so that Traffic Manager’s can better understand what is affecting traffic flow at any given time. CUTLAS also provides functions to help mitigate congestion and its consequences as part of a strategic response to traffic build-up.
The CUTLAS suite is fully compliant with the latest Government UTMC standards. This means that CUTLAS can fully support Traffic Manager’s key priorities such as exchanging important data with neighbouring authorities and their systems, as well as ‘plug and play’ with other UTMC modules, such as journey time, incident / street-work locations, etc. displayed and disseminated to a wide range of stakeholders.

Each month we select a hot topic and a leading figure in the industry to write about it.HAVE WE REALLY LEARNT THE LESSONS FROM LAST YEAR’S FLOODS?
Flooding costs associated with extreme weather, both financial and emotional, have increased considerably over the last decade, and experts have predicted this trend is set to continue.
Paul Livett, Chairman of GroundSure looks into how increasing the use of flood risk information in property transactions can help to ensure both residential and commercial transactions are conducted on a truly informed basis, with buyers being made aware of environmental risks prior to purchase.
Over 2.2 million homes and small businesses in the UK are located in areas considered at risk of flooding, and the Association of British Insurers (ABI) has said that 570,000 of these face a high risk of flooding. The floods in June and July last year left approximately 48,000 households… More…
