June 8, 2009 -- Transdyn successfully placed into service a new Central Computer System that manages traffic and plant operations for Transurban’s CityLink road network. CityLink (www.citylink.com.au) is a 22-kilometer automated tollway in Melbourne, Australia that connects the Tullamarine Freeway, the West Gate Freeway, and the Monash Freeway. The toll road provides reduced travel time between the Central Business District and Melbourne’s suburbs, the airport, and Australia’s largest seaport.
The new computer system, running Transdyn’s DYNAC® Enterprise Server software suite, provides seamless management of all aspects of traffic and plant operations. From a unified operator interface, the system monitors and controls the motorway’s video cameras, vehicle detectors, electronic message signs, weigh-in-motion and counting stations, emergency telephones, motorist advisory radios, ventilation, lighting, electrical distribution, access control, fire detection, and environmental systems. DYNAC’s highly integrated user environment and advanced incident response management application allows CML to safely and efficiently manage both traffic and facilities operations especially during emergency situations.
Transurban (www.transurban.com.au) is a leading international toll road developer and investor with major assets in Australia, an asset in the US (Pocahontas Parkway), and emerging interests in other US states and the UK. The company focuses on the long-term ownership and management of advanced electronic toll roads.
