Introduction
General deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) in the field of road transport and for interfaces
with other modes of transport is demanded by the Directive 2010/40/EU [3] of the European Parliament.
ITS means “applying information technology and communications technology (ICT) for improving traffic,
especially road traffic”.
Urban Intelligent Transport Systems (U-ITS) is a term indicating the provisioning of ITS services applying
ITS technologies in an urban context. Development of standards dedicated to U-ITS is supported by the
European Commission's mandate M/546 [2] with technical details identified in the final report [1] of
project team PT1701. U-ITS standards will complement those for cooperative ITS (C-ITS) developed
under the European Commission's mandate M/453, see [4].
NOTE Basic ITS technologies applied for U-ITS can be the same as those applied for C-ITS.
Provisioning of ITS services typically may require communications between ITS station units (ITS-SU)
specified in ISO 21217:2014. Diverging requirements for communications and limitations of capabilities
of available communication channels led to the concept of Hybrid Communications providing multiple
communication protocol stacks with different access technologies and communications protocols for
localized communications and networked communications together with the capability of handover,
specified in a series of standards, e.g. ISO 21217:2014, ISO 21218 [30], EN ISO 17423 [20], ISO 24102-6
[31], ISO 21215 [29], ISO 17515-3 [22], ISO 21210 [28], ISO 29281-1 [32], and others.
A major characteristic of C-ITS is the sharing of data between ITS applications in the same ITS-SU and in
different ITS-SUs. A major service domain of C-ITS is the domain of road safety and traffic efficiency, with
a certain focus on wireless communications between ITS-SUs installed in vehicles, also referred to as
Vehicle ITS-SU (V-ITS-SU), and wireless communications between V-ITS-SUs and ITS-SUs installed at the
roadside, also referred to as Roadside ITS-SU (R-ITS-SU).
Although there are differences between U-ITS and C-ITS with respect of target service domains (data and
procedures necessary for the provisioning of dedicated urban ITS services), data and procedures
developed for C-ITS might also be beneficially applied in U-ITS.
Whilst C-ITS currently largely focuses on the road safety domain, U-ITS deals with the ITS service
domains
— Multimodal Information Systems;
— Traffic Management;
— Urban Logistics;
see [1].
A major goal to be achieved with U-ITS standards is to assist urban administration to implement U-ITS,
and removing barriers for implementing U-ITS, see CEN/TR 17143 [1].
A precise definition of the borderline between U-ITS and ITS for other target domains, e.g. ITS on
highways, is impossible. However, this document aims on identifying and specifying ITS issues that are
relevant for urban administrations. It is important to understand that ITS issues developed for urban
areas also may be applicable outside of urban areas.
Development of standards for U-ITS has to consider automated and autonomous vehicles [1], and the
work on data and message specifications performed under the name of DATEX for data exchange between
central stations and between a central station and a service provider.
The present document was developed by project team PT1710 funded by the European Commission
under grant agreement SA/CEN/GROW/EFTA/546/2016-10 'Urban ITS Traffic Management data

models' (M/546 [2]). The scope of the present document results from the High Level Recommendation
“1701-HLRd Traffic Management Data Models and interfaces” identified in CEN/TR 17143 [1].
The present document is about communications interfaces and profiles applicable for U-ITS with a focus
on communications between central stations, i.e. Central ITS-SUs (C-ITS-SUs). Such C-ITS-SUs can be part
of e.g. central traffic management centres, centres from authorities, centres from service providers. The
communication profile definitions presented in this document are based on the methodology being
specified in ISO/TS 21185.
Data definitions are outside the scope of this document and are developed within other PTs funded under
M/546 [2].

1 Scope
This document identifies traffic management interfaces between central stations and specifies related
ITS communication profiles enabling standardized data exchange over these communication interfaces,
applicable for a variety of platforms including ITS station units (ITS-SUs) compliant with ISO 21217:2014.
This document further specifies requirements on encoding of data.
These traffic management interfaces enable
— the provision of appropriate and relevant traffic information, e.g. congestion and travel times, to
users across a variety of platforms;
— exchange of data such as:
— network performance data, e.g. traffic conditions, travel times, and
— planned and unplanned events and incidents, e.g.
— roadworks,
— closures of roads, bridges, and tunnels,
— bad weather,
— road surface conditions.
This document recognizes specifications from DATEX II in order to avoid duplicate specifications. In
doing so, this document aligns with existing products of CEN/TC 278/WG 8 and the additional work being
undertaken within the DATEX community.

5 Traffic management interfaces
5.1 Basics on traffic management
“Traffic management” (TM), in the context of this document, is a term pointing to a class of ITS services
that aim on managing road traffic, including urban areas, including not just vehicles, motor-cycles, and
bicycles but also e.g. pedestrians and rail vehicles such as trams. TM interfaces exist between these actors
in TM. TM interfaces are needed for the purpose to manage the operation of TM services.
5.2 Basics on interfaces
The term “interface” has the generic meaning of a “point of demarcation between two entities”, although
originally it comes from natural science with a different meaning.
In the context of information and communications technologies (ICT), many complementary definitions
exist, distinguished by a qualifier added to the term, e.g. “physical interface”, “communications protocol
interface”, “application interface”. The communications protocol interface and the application interface
are examples of logical interfaces. The physical interface together with the communications protocol
interface define an ITS-S Communication Protocol Stack (ITS-SCPS).
NOTE 1 Typically, an ITS-SCPS includes, as a minimum, protocols from the ISO/OSI layers one through four (ITS-
S access layer and ITS-S networking and transport layer specified in ISO 21217:2014), optionally also the layers five
through seven (ITS-S facilities layer specified in ISO 21217:2014); see also the defini
