en.Wedoany.com Reported - Kapsch TrafficCom has recently partnered with the San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) in Southern California to support the expansion of the SB Express Lanes network, addressing future population and traffic growth in the region. According to planning, San Bernardino County is expected to add approximately 500,000 new residents within 25 years. This project will focus on relocating and integrating existing tolling equipment from the Riverside County Transportation Commission (RCTC), ensuring a seamless transition for the cross-county express lane system during expansion.

Philip Chu, SBCTA's Deputy Director of Express Lanes, stated: "This extension enhances mobility throughout the region. Kapsch's relocation work on RCTC's tolling equipment helps us build a seamless express lane experience across county boundaries. As the population continues to rise, improving the reliability of the transportation network is equally critical for both residents and commuters." This segment expansion directly responds to increasing local roadway pressure, with county roads expected to see an additional 370,000 vehicles in the coming years. The express lanes on I-15 offer faster, more predictable travel options, saving travel time and alleviating daily commute congestion.

JB Kendrick, President of Kapsch TrafficCom North America, also noted: "San Bernardino County is one of the fastest-growing regions in the nation, and this growth urgently requires innovative mobility solutions. We are honored to partner with SBCTA to jointly manage congestion and improve the daily driving experience for the 4.6 million residents across both counties. This project aims to leverage intelligent technology to make travel safer, more reliable, and prepared for the future." Currently, the relevant I-15 segment has been equipped with a comprehensive intelligent transportation system, including tolling traffic monitoring, closed-circuit television cameras, variable tolling message signs, variable message signs, and communication network facilities.
