Abstract :
The EUROAD concept was developed within the DRIVE project ACCEPT as a solution for the use of Radio Data System-Traffic Message Channel (RDS-TMC) in cross border situations. It appears that EUROAD is a very useful solution for international TMC services in general. The EUROAD concept comprises: a EUROAD TMC database, i.e., a composition of national/other TMC databases; specific EUROAD TMC functionality by the traffic information centers and broadcasting companies. The result of EUROAD is a smooth and continuous TMC service for drivers going from one TMC transmitter/database to another.
