The Home Office type-approved solution will be fully integrated to the back- office penalty notice processing facility run by Sussex Safer Roads Partnership.

SafeZone uses automatic number plate recognition technology to identify all vehicles as they enter the enforcement zones. It calculates average speed over a measured distance travelled within the zone, ensuring high compliance to the speed limits and safer traffic flow.
