Traffic Technology Drives to Clear the Road 交通技术让道路畅通无阻 The world’s leading traffic technology scientists will meet in Paris this week to find a way of easing congestion on the roads and developing the auto mated highways of the 21st century. 世界权威的交通技术专家本周将在巴黎聚会，商讨解除道路拥塞和发展21世纪自动公路的问题。? Nearly 2,000 delegates are expected to attend the Four-day event,which begins on Wednesday．It will be addressed by Dr Brian Mawhinney，the transport secretary，as well as the heads of several Car companies． 大约有2000名代表要参加这次将在星期三召开的为期四天的会议。交通大臣Dr.?Brian?Mawhinney和几个汽车公司的头脑将发表讲话。? Among the technologies on show will be vehicle—-to--roadside communication links to provide drivers with up to date traffic information；in-ground and overhead sensors that monitor the level and volume of traffic；low-cost satellite receivers that allow drivers to pinpoint their position anywhere on earth；and in-vehicle navigation systems able to guide drivers along the least congested streets． 参展的技术有：为驾驶员提供最新的交通咨讯的车辆与路边通讯的联接装置；监视交通状况?和流量的地下和高架的传感器；为驾驶员提供他们在地球任一地点的准确定位的廉价的卫星接受器；及能够引导驾驶员选择最畅通道路的车内导航系统。 “This will be the first event of its kind where the world’s leading transport researchers will be able to discuss new technological developments with road user groups and highway authorities，”says Eric Sampson，chairman of the main organizing committee,and deputy chief scientist at the Department of Transport in London． Eric?Sampson,?伦敦交通部首席科学家代表和本次会议总组织委员会主席说：?“这将是世界上?顶级交通专家与道路使用人员和公路管理当局首次一同讨论新技术的发展问题。?所讨论的技术包括可以马上实施的现成技术，以及在近几年内可以实施的其它技术，还有下?一世纪将要制造出的“完全的自动汽车”所要更未来的系统技术。 The technologies under discussion include systems that are ready for implementation，others that will be introduced within a few years,and more futuristic systems that will be used in the next century to create ‘fully automatic’ cars． 讨论的技术包括系统，准备实施，其他人将推出的几年内，和更多的未来系统将在下个世纪创造的全自动车。 Road tolling technology is a top priority，especially in Britain．Several systems will be tested as part of the electronic tolling trials starting on the M3 moto
