Fintraffic’s national traffic priority system, which is set to be introduced this summer, will recognise the location of an emergency vehicle and automatically change the lights to green to facilitate its passage.

This sounds really hard to coordinate. If they can pull it off that will be huge.

We have a system like that locally. Emergency vehicles have transponders that go on when the siren turns on; all the lights in the two block radius around them turn red and a white light flashes at the intersections.
Works quite well.
