Redflex fixed speed enforcement approved in Holland

RedflexSpeed-radar, Redflex’s fixed speed enforcement system, has undergone testing by the Dutch metrology institute, NMi, and verified to meet Dutch approval requirements. Under extensive testing the camera was found to perform accurately at speeds from 20km/h to 320km/h, or 12mph to 200mph. The first fixed speed enforcement system to utilise dual radar detection, maximising detection rates and eliminating anomalies such as phantom signals, reflections and other noise-related issues, RedflexSpeed-radar

RedflexSpeed-radar, 112 Redflex’s fixed speed enforcement system, has undergone testing by the Dutch metrology institute, 7665 NMi, and verified to meet Dutch approval requirements. Under extensive testing the camera was found to perform accurately at speeds from 20km/h to 320km/h, or 12mph to 200mph.

The first fixed speed enforcement system to utilise dual radar detection, maximising detection rates and eliminating anomalies such as phantom signals, reflections and other noise-related issues, RedflexSpeed-radar provides accurate bi-directional speed, lane identification, vehicle position and positive vehicle identification across up to six lanes of traffic simultaneously.

RedflexSpeed-radar is available with a high resolution colour camera, which, when combined with visible or infrared illumination, enables the system to accurately detect offending vehicles whilst providing perfect images.

Ricardo Fiusco, Redflex CEO, commented, “We are delighted that RedflexSpeed-radar has received Dutch approval. A variant of the system is used in the UK on the 503 Highways Agency HADECS managed motorway project and we look forward to introducing it to European customers.”

    Andrew Rooke and Dave Marples of Technolution B.V. take a look at what can be done to address a long-standing problem: the all-or-nothing approach of automated enforcement. To start, a brief history of speeding: on 14 November 1896, the first Veteran Car Run was staged in England from London to Brighton. It was organised to celebrate new British legislation to raise the maximum speed of vehicles from four to 14mph while also removing the need for a person waving a red flag to walk in front of the car and wa

    While The Netherlands already has some of the safest roads in the world it has ambitious plans to make them safer still, as Jon Masters discovers. In virtually all periodical studies and comparisons of countries’ road safety performance, the Netherlands is consistently in the top three and often leads the world, depending on how casualty figures are compared. According to the International Traffic Safety Data & Analysis Group (IRTAD) of the International Transport Forum, road deaths per capita have falle

Since the beginning of 2015, or even before, it seems obvious that all roads in vision-based ITS applications lead in one technological direction – CMOS. Initially perceived as a trend in vision technology, it has taken a step towards status as the new benchmark with Sony’s announcement to discontinue their CCD production. CMOS sensor technology has become the future for industrial

Dealing with traffic congestion related to the ‘tidal flows’ caused by large numbers of commuters making their way into major business hubs in the morning and returning to the suburbs in the evening, has seen the widespread use of adaptive signal timing and even reversible lanes.
