69 International Road Dynamics’ results for the three and six one of the world's leading providers of systems and solutions for the three and six months ended 31 May show total revenue up 15 per cent year to date, which the company says is due to a strong growth in key geographic markets.

Revenue in Canada and the US revenue rose 23 per cent year to date on solid performance in projects and product sales, while Latin America revenue increased 22 per cent year to date on significant project deliveries.  South Asia revenue was lower, reflecting limited business activities in the region.

IRD’s net earnings were up 70 per cent year to date, providing a stable financial position with positive working capital of US$7.7 million.

“Overall we are pleased with our performance through the First six months of fiscal 2014 as we continue to generate solid growth in our key Canada and United States and Latin America regions," commented Terry Bergan, president and CEO. "We are also pleased to see another quarter of positive contribution from our equity investment in China.”

  • Moody’s more bullish on prospects for US toll roads
    December 6, 2013
    Moody’s Investor Services have up-rated the outlook for US toll roads from negative to stable. They think traffic should grow 1.5 per cent on a median basis in 2014, which they describe as a “sustainable comeback” from the three per cent decline since 2009. They think toll revenues should grow to a “mid-single digit percentage range” in 2013 and 2014 which we guess means 4 per cent to 6 per cent. They note such an increase in toll revenues is a slowdown from 2012 when big toll rate increases boosted r
