To evaluate the success of this project LCCC uses
• The number and type of devices connected in this network as an indicator of the service uptake; and also the
number of devices and locations that are still unconnected;
• The communications costs vs. using point solutions (3G, dedicated lines, radio, etc.)
• The impact on the local community in relation to safety and reduced antisocial behavior
LCCC are committed to implement the Limerick 2030 Economic and Spatial plan and take full advantage of Digital and
ICT technologies in the development of Smart Limerick in order to:
• Create smart communities and safer communities
• Create new social and economic opportunities for all, through the use of technology
• Create a better citizen, visitor and customer experience
Municipalities should keep an updated infrastructure assets register (besides the financial asset management register)
and if one does not exist, start its development by capturing the knowledge of their staff and contractors.
Develop internal processes that will facilitate keeping the infrastructure assets register up to date and engage with
other agencies: the business case for shared development increases in value created as more agencies take part.
LCCC anticipates that this network will be further expanded as the city streets are upgraded, for example the €8
million O’Connell Street (main thoroughfare) upgrade will see an expansion of the network and the use of different
types of IoT devices.
As the municipal, data network expands and new data is being captured while we are developing “Insight Limerick”, a
data aggregation, visualization and analytics service that will allow us to make better decisions based on insights from
this new data.
We are currently working on Limerick Enterprise Architecture for Smart Cities with LERO across universities research
groups based in the University of Limerick
6) Smart Traffic Management System
Development of a Smart Traffic Management Systems for the city of Cyberjaya in Malaysia.
This project includes the following blocks: Traffic lights, Traffic sensors, CCTV with traffic counting analytics and
Adaptive controller systems.
With the objective to implement a system that:
• Auto-adapts and auto-optimizes traffic lights to reduce traffic congestion,
• Reduce waiting time at traffic intersection
• Savings on petrol and CO2 emission affecting everyone
• Remote management
Through understanding the traffic condition and behaviour via traffic sensors and CCTV analytics, the smart traffic
signal control system can automatically distribute green time to all traffic lanes and adaptive to fluctuating traffic
volume to enhance rapid traffic movements. This would result in reduced travel time, waiting time and directly
addresses traffic congestions while accommodating to multiple variable/unpredictable traffic demands.
The objective was to address the following issues:
