- Ensuring the Continuity of Traffic + (Following the disastrous floods in 2016, t … Following the disastrous floods in 2016, the Loiret region in France highlighted the need for a common information system between administrative authorities to manage road traffic and incidents more effectively. The Département du Loiret and Orléans Métropole contracted SME Nextérité to develop a data platform to address this need. The platform serves as a direct data source for two web applications: one for road managers (ViaPro) and one for the general public (ViaFacil). These apps aim to improve road incident information, reduce traffic congestion, and ensure a safer environment for all road users. The European-funded BE-GOOD project (https://www.nweurope.eu/projects/project-search/begood/) supports the development and implementation of these data-driven services in the area of infrastructure and environment.</br></br>In 2017, a challenge called "Continuity of traffic flow" was initiated to create a real-time information system about traffic conditions using Open Data and crowdsourcing. The aim was to develop innovative solutions like a web platform that provides a common set of data from different road managers to the public and private sectors, and to use multiple channels (such as apps, radio, TV, SMS, and social networks) to reach the maximum number of users. The use of crowdsourced data was encouraged to improve user information and infrastructure management responsiveness. The challenge's goal was to design an effective solution regardless of the technology used, as long as it could provide the required data through an API or other means.quired data through an API or other means.)
