112 Redflex Traffic Systems, provider of public safety technology throughout North America, has been awarded a Greater Phoenix Chamber of Commerce 2017 Impact Award as an ‘exceptional innovator’.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary, the Impact Awards recognises companies in the Phoenix-metro area for their leadership in the business community and positive impact on the economy.

While Redflex is best known for operating automated red-light and speed camera programs, the company has helped develop numerous facets of the traffic safety industry, including the school bus stop-arm enforcement program, Redflex Student Guardian, which protects children as they enter and exit the bus. It helped initiate portable handheld photo speed enforcement programs and developed the Redflex intelligent collision pre-emption system, a comprehensive photo enforcement solution, which helps to prevent T-bone crashes at signalised intersections.

The study reviewed nearly 350,000 red-light running violations issued in the city from the time the program bega

While speed and red light infringements tend to attract the most attention, there remain several other areas of enforcement where automation can bring significant operational and efficiency benefits. Lane monitoring and access control also continue to benefit from technological development.

Collisions between police cars, ambulances and fire crews as they reach intersections at the same time, with equal priority given by all signals set on red, are as serious as they sound absurd. For emergency teams and those in need of their help, the consequences are dire. The solution could come from application of connected veh
