Transport telematics systems integrate information technology with telecommunications for the purposes of transport systems. This helps to improve the safety of vehicles and facilities involved in transport tasks. At the same time, the efficiency of using transport infrastructure and means of transport increases. The development and use of specialised IT applications that use data from transport telematics systems helped to create Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). Currently, in Poland (in Europe and in the world), more and more advanced services offered by Intelligent Transport Systems are being developed and implemented. It is particularly relevant in road transport, especially because Poland’s road safety is insufficient compared to other European countries. The article presents the authors’ proposed indicators and criteria that can be used for assessing ITS services in the context of road safety. The authors conducted analyses to study the application of AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process), if ITS services were to be used to improve road safety. Then, it will be possible to choose one solution from all the assessed ones.

The article presents the concept of implementing a network of average speed measurements in the West Pomeranian. The author focused on solutions of Intelligent Transport Systems to improve the safety of road transport. The first part of the article discusses the state of road traffic safety in the West Pomeranian. In the next part, the solutions of Intelligent Transport Systems used to record the speed of road vehicles and the method of data recording and processing were discussed. In the third part, the accident maps and the locations of the stored sectional speed measurements were analysed, on the basis of which the proposition of places for the implementation of the network of average speed measurements was created due to the high accident rate.

Abstract Transport telematics systems integrate IT with telecommunications in applications for different transport systems. Through their implementation, the use of transport infrastructure and means of transport increases, while increasing the level of safety of vehicles and facilities performing transport tasks. The implementation of modern Intelligent Transport Systems in road transport necessitates their evaluation (including reliability and operation) and the rational selection for planned criteria. The article presents the author’s work on criteria and sub-criteria that will be used to evaluate technical and teleinformatic solutions for ITS services.

Abstract The implementation of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) nowadays is associated with a strong need to solve problems related to the high accident rate, as well as low efficiency of transportation process management. The topic of this paper is the characterisation of selected intelligent transport services and the determination of their influence on road traffic safety and efficiency. Two services implemented within the framework of the National Traffic Management System in Poland were distinguished, namely: transmitting information to drivers and incident detection. A general analysis of the relationship between the functioning of ITS services and safety on national roads, as well as traffic efficiency therein was conducted.

The paper discusses a new approach to ensuring the safety of controlled intersections. In the course of research, the authors found a change in the main characteristics of the traffic flow, which requires constant monitoring in the implementation of the intersection control using a traffic light. The heterogeneity of the composition of the traffic flow is determined and the influence of this parameter on the duration of the resolving signal is established. In addition, the authors determined the influence of weather conditions on the duration of the traffic light cycle and developed an approach to take into account changes in this factor in the calculation of the mode of operation of the traffic light object. As a result of the model experiment, the economic and environmental efficiency of the developed approach is determined. The results obtained in the course of the study are an integral part in the implementation of intelligent transport systems, which confirms the relevance and feasibility of the study. The use of this approach, in addition to integration into the its system, allows to reduce the accident rate of controlled intersections due to the rational distribution of the time of the traffic light object and reduce vehicle delays on the approaches, which together ensures the safety of regulated areas.

Increase in the interest of road safety and threats has influenced the promotion of research conducted in this area. When conducting the analysis of hazards in road traffic, special attention should be paid to the technical condition of the vehicle, the condition of the road infrastructure, the surroundings and the accessibility of the road and the behavior of road traffic participants. Road managers have the opportunity to influence the level of road safety directly, through the modernization and reconstruction of road infrastructure. In order to select effective solutions, it is necessary to conduct systematic research on the level of road traffic safety, accident rates and the effectiveness of implemented solutions. An example of the conducted research are the analysis of traffic participants' behavior. The paper presents an overview of the methods used to study the behavior of road users. One of the presented methods was developed and used as part of the Rector's Grant in 2017 by the Scientific Circle of Electrical Engineering in Transport Systems.

The article attempts to systematize international legal acts in the field of road-traffic safety. Its current state in the world is outlined. The general methodological bases of knowledge of a problem of the international legal security in the studied field are specified. Some components of the research methodology are directly identified in the system of international legal security in this area. Based upon the features of the system of legislation that takes place in the theory of law, a number of characteristic features of the system of international legal security of transport safety. This made it possible to offer an author's definition of this concept. The system of international legal security of road-traffic safety is represented by the classification of relevant international documents adopted during the last 70 years by the UN, WHO and other international institutions. Their division is carried out on the subject of legal regulation in the general field of road-traffic safety. This made it possible to identify eight groups of international legal acts: as for the formation of a global road-traffic safety policy; the creation of uniform traffic rules; in the field of passenger transportation and passenger transport; in the field of cargo transportation; in the field of accident prevention; in the field of road-traffic safety of youth; as for the road transport infrastructure; as for the punishment of persons for criminal offenses in the field of road-traffic safety and transport operation. Proposals are made for possible supplementation of the existing conventions taking into account the current state of development of the transport industry and the introduction of new technologies.
