00:00Why are we interested in the application of new technologies in the transport sector in general and in highway infrastructures in particular?
00:07As a reason, we are very interested in the application of new technologies in the transport sector in general and in highway infrastructures in particular.
00:15The maximum attention we pay in the highway sector in particular is for safety.
00:21And so today, with the increasing volume of traffic we have on our highways, safety is the central issue.
00:28So technology can help a lot in this and also in terms of capacity of our network.
00:33Technology can help to use technology and avoid having to create new infrastructures or expand existing ones with further soil consumption.
00:43Because one of the objectives of the region is also that of the containment of soil consumption in the coming years.
00:48Safety on our roads is often put at risk by traffic conditions where there is both local traffic, which is very widespread in our region.
01:00Just think of the Padua-Venezia connections, which are two cities that are closely connected.
01:07Here, however, significant volumes of heavy traffic are added.
01:12Just think of everything that happened after the opening of the markets to the east.
01:17And so this commission of traffic often creates safety and incidental problems.
01:23The work we are doing in Veneto, also in the direction of Trieste,
01:28so the realization of the third lane to put that section of the road in safety, are very important works.
01:35As I said before, infrastructural work is not enough, but also of a technological nature.
01:40Information to the user, the possibility of dialoguing with the user on board, is one of the challenges and perspectives that we must face in the coming years.
