Simplifying roadway management: the arrival of TES in Quebec

Municipalities and transportation authorities must manage an ever-increasing amount of data: collisions, traffic counts, speed readings, traffic sign and light inventories, characteristics of the network, etc. However, this essential information is often scattered across multiple systems and formats, making it difficult to make quick and informed decisions.

To address this issue, TES, a software platform recognized for over 20 years in North America, is coming to Quebec under the CIMA+ banner.

From data to action: a single platform for safer roads and more efficient networks

TES centralizes, visualizes (using a GIS – a geographic information system) and analyzes all road transportation-related data in a single platform. The tool provides an integrated view of the network, facilitates collaboration and supports evidence-based decisions by connecting and synchronizing existing sources of information on road network characteristics and conditions, incidents and collisions, speed readings and other critical elements.

TES uses advanced predictive models to anticipate risks, identify locations to monitor and recommend targeted interventions.

Thanks to its specialized modules, TES covers the entire road transportation management chain:

• Collisions: data analysis, reporting and prioritization of interventions according to the principles of the Vision Zero approach.
• Traffic studies: collection and analysis of traffic counts and speed data to determine the need for stop signs and traffic lights in a given location, calculated automatically according to departmental standards. Estimation of annual average daily traffic (AADT).
• Asset maintenance: maintenance history and observations on the condition of traffic signs and lights. Real-time updates on the progress of maintenance operations, staff and equipment assignments, and the cost of each activity.
• Traffic lights: maintenance of an accurate inventory of all intersections with traffic lights, including equipment history and status tracking.
• Road safety: diagnosis of safety issues and classification of problem locations using advanced modeling and risk assessment tools based on Highway Safety Manual (HSM) best practices.

Local expertise backed by the power of proven technologies

Integrated into CIMA+'s offering, TES draws on two strengths: technologies proven across North America and local expertise in mobility and road safety.

Aligned to the context of Canadian and North American municipalities, TES facilitates compliance with Quebec practices and standards while accelerating the implementation of actions. In addition to those already mentioned, the platform offers the following advantages:

• Prioritization of interventions with a high impact on the safety, resilience and longevity of infrastructure assets, enabling objective allocation of financial resources.
• Rapid implementation and ease of use, allowing for smooth adoption by analysts, technicians and decision-makers
• Turnkey support, including technical and strategic assistance from CIMA+ experts, for efficient and simplified implementation and optimal use of the platform
• A bilingual interface and service, in French and English, to facilitate the work of all users across Canada

The result? Faster, more reliable and better data-driven decisions for safer and more sustainable road networks.

An adaptable platform

TES adapts to the needs of cities, regions and ministries, thanks in particular to the platform’s option of selecting only the modules that are relevant. Whether for a pilot project or a large-scale implementation, its integrated approach allows for a smooth transition, without loss of information or unnecessary complexity.

Already used by more than 50 administrative bodies in North America, the platform proves its reliability and ability to transform road data every day – turning information into action.
