Using Edinburgh as a case study, this paper describes how traveller information and control systems can be designed as part of an integrated approach to reducing traffic congestion in urban areas. The Edinburgh System targets travellers throughout the journey, offers a coordinated response to events across the urban-interurban jurisdictional boundary and provides for the future incorporation of public transport information. The system illustrates how traveller information and control systems can be applied in an integrated manner within a complex urban environment to tackle the problems of traffic congestion. The Edinburgh system is currently in the final design stages and is being implemented under the working name TIME, the name of the system's in-station computer. (13 pages)
