Derbyshire, located in the centre of England, has an extremely varied topography, especially in the Peak District National Park. There are no cities in Derbyshire, with the largest town being Chesterfield. However, several important highway routes
cross the County, including the M1, the A6 and A57. Connected Roadworks. Using Derbyshire County Council’s various back-office systems, when late running buses are identified approaching shuttle working temporary traffic signals, and delays are predicted at those signals, priority timings are automatically applied. The strategy by which the above is achieved is complex, but uses existing technology in Derbyshire, combining four different, but interconnected systems.
