At booth 1539, PTV Group invites visitors to discover how next-generation traffic management in cities improves road safety, air quality, and sustainability. Future-oriented cities like Vienna, Rome and Taichung already rely on PTV’s real-time technology, which combines innovative machine learning and dynamic traffic modelling.
