traffic information centre (TIC)

one of the TTI System operators; each TIC is connected to TMC, PIC, PTC and some other TICs to collect and process information generated at each of the said centres; the TIC disseminates information periodically in accordance with procedures as agreed with the corresponding VASP or from time to time on request from the VASP
