Innovations in surveillance technology

As part of its innovative concept for the modernisation and centralisation of the Austrian traffic network, ASFINAG developed a professional, standardized operations model. This model envisions uniformly equipped, centrally located and continuously staffed control rooms whose function is a comprehensive monitoring of the entire Austrian highway network. A key component of this model is the central control room Carinthia in Klagenfurt. The project was started in May 2008, and by April 2009 the control room was in full operation.

Highest safety standards and user comfort

The overall concept provides maximum user comfort and, in case of an emergency, allows the operator and the supervisor to organise and coordinate the emergency forces effectively. Important incidents are recorded and stored, and it is possible to access and analyse past events at a later date.
