Sweden-headquartered 569 Sensys Traffic says it has received an order worth US$3.54 for red-light enforcement in an un-named Middle East country. This is also the first major order for the new Sensys RS242 radar, which in addition to recording traffic offences also identifies lanes and classifies vehicles.

"This breakthrough comes further to a several-year procurement process where the competition was very tough,” says Johan Frilund, CEO of Sensys Traffic. “We see this as confirmation of our competitiveness and, above all, of our continued strong position in the Middle East,"

The order is expected to be delivered during the year, and will also give Sensys an opportunity to sign maintenance and service contracts upon expiry of the warranty period. The company has previously delivered a small number of the new radar system to the United Arab Emirates.
