The project titled “Network-wide Traffic Speed-Flow Estimator” led by Ir Prof. William H.K. Lam, Chair Professor, was awarded the Smart Traffic Fund (STF) with the project sum of HK$2,195,000. The project aims to develop a network-wide traffic speed-flow estimator for provision of real-time traffic speeds and flows simultaneously for the entire study network by time of day based on limited traffic data from different sources.
The Transport Department of the HKSAR Government has set up the STF of HK$1 billion in 2021 to provide funding support for research and application projects on vehicle-related innovation and technology with the objectives of enhancing commuting convenience, enhancing efficiency of the road network or road space, and improving driving safety.
