127 StarTraq Audit provides authorities with an independent review of speed and red light enforcement violation patters in order to detect multiple errors or even fraud.

The company receives notification of all logged offences in order that its Audit software can detect anomalies and trends.

These may come as a result of an drifting calibration, erroneous recalibration or other faults and can be detected in near real-time and the notification stopped before the automated systems send out hundreds of tickets which are likely to be challenged by aggrieved motorists.

Interfaces are available for most makes of camera and the web-based services provides a 'dashboard' to enable authorities to quickly check for errors while layered security prevents any interference with the reports.

Nearly all the city’s 1,000 traffic lights are connected to road sensors that detect the presence of vehicles at the intersections and adjust the lights accordingly.

Operators are able to use virtual speed cameras to monitor the speed of any of their vehicles that have ERoad hardware devices inst
