PTV’s Optima forecasts traffic flow and protects environment in historic German city

The addition of the real-time forecasting capability of PTV’s Optima software to its traffic management system has allowed the German city of Erfurt to optimize vehicle flow on its narrow and historic roads, while simultaneously reducing environmental damage and emissions.

Erfurt’s medieval center attracts over a million visitors each year; a significant amount for a city with only 210,000 residents. The tourist-increased traffic poses a challenge to the city administration and its traffic planners. The authorities needed to manage traffic on the confined and often historic roads, while at the same time reducing emissions of carbon dioxide, particulates and nitrogen oxide, in order to protect ancient stonework and achieve ambitious climate protection objectives. Although the extensive local public transport network, and the rising number of people making short journeys by bicycle, significantly eases the pressure on the city’s roads, traffic was increasing.
