To address increased traffic volumes, especially congestion in the town center and traffic jams on the federal highway, in a sustainable way, St. Johann in Tirol partnered with SWARCO to implement an intelligent parking guidance system that manages traffic, provides real-time information, and generates valuable data for future mobility planning. Guiding both visitors and local residents efficiently to available parking facilities, ensuring smooth traffic flow throughout the town.
Cities rarely struggle with just one mobility challenge. Congestion, public transport reliability, pedestrian safety and incident management are all interconnected. Solving them individually often leads to isolated systems that generate data but offer little coordinated action. Working together with SWARCO, the municipality of Târgu Mureș has deployed one of the country's most comprehensive integrated traffic management systems, bringing traffic control, public transport management, road safety and enforcement together within a single operational platform.
Digital twins are now firmly on the agenda for local authorities in the UK. With up to £30 million available through the Department for Transport’s Integrated Transport Digital Twin programme, the key question for eligible authorities is not whether the technology sounds promising, but what a practical, deliverable project actually looks like in the real world.
This deployment demonstrates how cities can gradually modernize their traffic infrastructure without losing sight of long-term objectives. By expanding an already connected network with next-generation traffic controllers, Rome is creating the technological foundation for more intelligent traffic operations in the years ahead. The project also highlights the growing adoption of SWARCO's ITC-3 technology across Italy, reflecting increasing confidence in scalable, future-ready traffic management solutions.
In the German city of Landau in der Pfalz, prediction of congestion, emissions and testing infrastructure changes are no longer a vision for the future — it is reality. A couple of months ago, SWARCO has deployed a fully operational Digital Twin that continuously mirrors the city's traffic network, providing real-time insights, short-term forecasts, and scenario-based decision support. Unlike many Digital Twin initiatives that remain at the concept or pilot stage, Landau in der Pfalz's solution is live, integrated into daily operations, and actively supporting traffic management decisions.

Every journey begins with a vision. For SWARCO, that vision was to bring its globally proven Intelligent Transportation Systems to one of the world's most dynamic mobility markets. The opportunity came in 2016, when McCain Inc. joined SWARCO, combining McCain's strong presence and trusted reputation across North America with SWARCO's global expertise and comprehensive ITS portfolio.
