Lighting specialist Nyx Hemera Technologies has signed two contracts, which it says are worth $10 million, to 'control and supervise' US tunnels.

Over the next two years, the company will deploy its line lighting control system, TLACS, as part of these agreements.

The contracts also include the integration of ventilation, air quality and other tunnel subsystems for 'major tunnels' in the US. 

Company president Pierre Longtin says the deals confirm the company's position "as a leader in the North American tunnel infrastructure supervision and control market".
