The invention relates to a system (10; 110), prediction unit (50; 150), and method for predicting a failure of at least one unit (111) for monitoring and/or controlling transportation traffic. The system (10; 110) comprises a communication network (40; 140) having at least one network access point (42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47; 145), a functional unit (EC) dedicated to the at least one unit (111) for monitoring and/or controlling transportation traffic, wherein the decentralized functional unit (EC) is connected to the at least one network access point (42, 45; 145), and a prediction unit (50; 150) configured to predict the failure based on data sent from the functional unit (EC) and/or received by the functional unit (EC) over the communication network (40; 140).
