Subject: Andrei Iacobita, Managing Director at IESYS, on how integrated traffic management systems improve road safety by closing the gap between weather detection and response

In a bylined feature for Business in the News, Andrei Iacobita, Managing Director at IESYS, looks at why traffic infrastructure needs to react to sudden weather changes just as fast as drivers do. The article frames the stakes against the UN’s 2030 Road Safety Strategy target of cutting road deaths and serious injuries in half, arguing that hitting that goal depends as much on infrastructure that can anticipate risk as it does on driver behaviour.
