"20 years ago, an awful lot of signalised junctions weren't anywhere near as clever there as they are now with now.  We got the ability to react to incoming data and change phases in real time, now we use in predictive analysis."That, she says is just one of many ways the travelling public get better journeys, and how that it is incredible what transport operators can do now, not only in traffic management but also traveller information and services.Mrs Martin, who has been at the helm of ITS (UK) for more than two-thirds of its existence also talks about the Society itself and how its members deliver so much for each other.  "As long as they get an income from somewhere to pay their bills. British people tend to be very relaxed about doing all sorts of unpaid work if it's something that they believe in or something they're interested in."Hear her thoughts on this, the future of transport technology and where ITS (UK) fits in, along with the latest news and why the people of Guildford win this week's "Adrian's Accolade".Follow Highways News on Twitter, LinkedIn and subscribe to our daily newsletter here.

Highways Voices 2 February - Transport Technology with Jennie Martin of ITS UK

Jennie Martin is an ethnobotanist and conservationist with a particular interest in ethnomycology and nature literacy. The founder, and 15 year executive director, of the award-winning charity ‘Wild things!’, Jennie has designed and delivered a variety of programmes that support conservation and nature connection, from habitat restoration projects to projects that support the elderly in accessing the great outdoors. When David first made contact with Jennie neither of them were aware that, beyond an interest in botany, they had something in common; Jenny was a student of David’s Great Aunt, a woman who is, Jennie says, one of her heroes! In this interview, Jennie explains the difference between botany and ethnobotany, extols the virtues of fungi, explores the topic of traditional knowledge, and suggests a number of ways to connect with nature - but whether it be foraging or forest-bathing, she asks that you do it sustainably and safely. Whether you’re easily seduced by nature, or you need help focusing in, Jennie’s overarching message is simply to get out there and to take it in! (This is the first of a set of three interviews all focused upon wildflowers.)David speak withFor further information on this and other episodes, visit: http://www.treesacrowd.fm/jennie-martin/ Why not become a "Subscription Squirrel" on our Patreon, and help support the production of this podcast?
