Traffic regulation orders (TROs) are legal documents that regulate or restrict the use of public roads. They are used to implement traffic management measures, such as speed limits, parking restrictions and one-way streets. TROs are essential for enabling authorities to enforce these regulations and ensure road safety. Up to now they have been paper-based documents restricting their usefulness.
A digital traffic regulation order (D-TRO) is the digital version of a traditional traffic regulation order. The D-TRO service is a centralised repository which has been developed by the Department for Transport to hold digital traffic regulation orders and is now in public Beta.
In this webinar you will find out more about TROs and the D-TRO service and then we will start to explore what real‑world bus use cases for DTROs may look like.
We’ll explain how you can find out more, and how as a public transport sector we can develop use cases for DTRO for our benefit and how we can work with the DfT to help make them a reality.
Some examples for public transport could be managing bus lanes, temporary diversions, event traffic, and roadworks, and how they could interact with operational systems such as scheduling, real‑time information, and journey planning.
Designed for anyone with an interest in the road network and public transport this webinar will focus on the potential for practical use rather than just being all theory.
