At the border crossings A 1 Walserberg, A 8 Suben and A 12 Kiefersfelden traffic sensors record the number of vehicles driving towards Germany as well as their speed. A state-of-the-art data processing system calculates at short intervals the time it takes to drive to the border. It spots emerging traffic congestion and measures the delays due to local controls at the state border.
As part of the ARRIVÉ research project (automatic calculation of travel time in the Vienna Airport traffic area) the average time it takes to pass through the area A 4 Ost motorway Knoten Prater to Schwechat Airport is calculated.
The current travel times are displayed locally on LED boards and on the updated notification boards along the A 4.
