Traffic Engineering Control (TEC)

Letter from the editor

Traffic Engineering & Control (TEC) will be celebrating its 50th birthday next year. It was set up to serve a newly emerging profession of traffic managers and still, today, remains fully dedicated to that brief.

If you are involved in traffic management, from traffic signals, through junction planning and traffic modelling to the deployment of UTMC and the latest intelligent transport systems solutions, then you will find plenty to interest you in every issue of TEC.
