National traffic data system to link every expressway
The ITS Core platform will connect expressways, Government traffic systems and major urban control centers while laying the groundwork for vehicle-to-everything communication.
Vietnam's Ministry of Construction plans to implement a national traffic data system, known as the Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) Core, by 2030. This platform aims to connect every expressway in the country, creating a digital backbone for the highway network that has previously relied on fragmented, route-by-route systems.
The ITS Core will gather real-time data from traffic management centers along the expressways, enabling automatic incident detection, congestion forecasting, and automated rerouting of traffic. Additionally, the system will share data with other government agencies and open up some traffic information to private businesses and the public.
The project will be executed in stages over the next four years, with the Ministry of Construction allocating resources to lay the groundwork, build core functions, and train AI models for incident recognition. The final phase in 2030 will see the system fully connected to all operating expressways, integrated with urban traffic control centers, and equipped to support vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication technology.
