The newly-formed Sensys 1679 Gatso Group has announced orders for traffic safety systems worth US$918,000 from organisations in the UK

The orders come from various partnerships and cities in the UK and are expected to be delivered before the end of 2015. These organisations are currently in the process of replacing wet film speed and red light systems to the latest Home Office Type Approved (HOTA) systems. The orders are mainly for new systems, plus upgrades of existing wet film speed and red light systems to the latest technology, including digital cameras.

Sensys Gatso says the UK has been an important market for Gatso since 1989. It has one of the largest installed bases of traffic enforcement systems in the world, a majority of which are currently wet film based and are expected to be replaced within the next coming years.

"It is exciting to be able to communicate the first deal of Sensys Gatso Group, the merger between Sensys Traffic and Gatso, and we are proud of the trust our customers show in us," says Torbjörn Sandberg, CEO of Sensys Gatso Group.
