FOI003005 FOI Highways

I am writing to request information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.

Please could you provide the following details regarding your authority’s Urban Traffic Control (UTC) / traffic signal management system or traffic signal fault management system:

1. The name of the software platform currently used to manage and control traffic signals (commonly referred to as UTC software or RMS and usually supplied in the UK by companies such as Yunex, Swarco, Telent and TRL).
2. The name of the supplier or vendor of this system.
3. The start date of the current contract for this system.
4. The expiry date of the current contract (or the next renewal/break date, if applicable).
5. The job title and/or team responsible for managing and operating this system. If possible, please also provide the name of the senior responsible officer (e.g. Head of Service or equivalent).

If the UTC or RMS software is provided as part of a traffic signals maintenance contract, please provide the answers for points 1-5 above for this contract instead.

If any part of this request is exempt from disclosure, please provide the remaining information and explain the reason for any refusal, citing the relevant exemption under the Act.

If the information is not held by your authority, please advise if you are aware of another organisation that may hold it.
