Optimise port traffic flow and increase throughput with TrafficFlow (TF)
Designed by Telclic, TrafficFlow is a vehicle and logistics facility management solution that coordinates heavy traffic flow environments where space is at a premium and managing dispatch is critical. This is of particular importance to port operations as congestion can often be a limiting factor on growth and our solution provides a cost effective alternative to road infrastructure development.
Our cloud-based management platform integrates with terminal operators, port authorities, drivers and connected IOT devices to automate and streamline procedures. We offer a complete end-to-end system that manages traffic flows, processes, vehicles, facilities, payments, account management, communications and decision making.
The TrafficFlow full-service traffic logistics solution is designed to operate where traffic staging and coordinated dispatch creates an optimal outcome. It is designed for customers that require a logical dispatch of vehicles through the management of vehicles before, during and after arrival to their destination.
TrafficFlow excels where there are multiple stakeholder groups who are required to collaborate. Our platform provides rule based decision automation, bringing efficiency and transparency to the process.

Case Study: Port of Dakar
