Four years after the installation of seventy-seven enforcement cameras in Hong Kong, 1679 Gatso and its Hong Kong partner 1676 Serco are to install a further forty Statio T-series red light enforcement systems.

The T-series RT3 tracking radar continuously monitors the speed and position of up to twelve vehicles simultaneously, capturing high resolution violation images, even when multiple vehicles cross a red-light at the same time.

Swee Siong Tan, senior area sales manager at Gatso, says: “After the installation of the first seventy-seven digital red-light cameras, the number of crashes on intersections in Hong Kong went down by 31 per cent. The number of casualties on intersections was also reduced by an encouraging 10 per cent.  With the installation of forty additional cameras we are confident that the Hong Kong authorities will achieve their goals of further improving road safety on intersections.”
