Integrated technological systems for the Pedemontana Lombarda highway
Innovative elements that revolutionise the toll collection process and facility monitoring.
– The Free Flow system allows tolls to be collected without stopping vehicles, using portals that identify vehicles and check tolls using laser scanning and On Board Units (OBUs).
– The dynamic weighing system, integrated with the portals, detects the weight of vehicles using WIM sensors and inductive loops, optimising costs and installed devices.
– Structural monitoring is essential for assessing the safety and efficiency of the structure over time, using a network of advanced sensors such as MEMS to measure specific physical parameters and accurately identify damage, enabling timely intervention.
The implementation of BIM methodology ensures effective communication and project optimisation through integrated management of the work throughout its entire life cycle. Thanks to the use of a centralised collaborative platform, it is possible to integrate and coordinate all information relating to the systems involved (infrastructure, hydraulics, installations, etc.), encouraging the involvement of all stakeholders.
The planned activities include modelling, simulation, information management and the development of a Digital Twin, to support more accurate planning, efficient operational management and consistent project delivery.
