This enables Welsh councils to capture moving traffic offences including bus lanes, bus lanes with adjacent parking, banned turns, box junctions, restricted zones, weight restrictions and one way traffic.

The platform combines ANPR with video analytics to track moving objects and only captures vehicles committing an offence. It can run multiple civil traffic enforcement, traffic management, school safety and police ANPR applications simultaneously.

The system is said to offer effective and reliable unattended enforcement.

    Intelligent traffic cameras open up a host of possibilities for traffic planners and controllers alike. If traffic management centres (TMCs) around the world are to cope with the increasing demands of growing traffic flows while maintaining or improving transport safety and efficiency, then video monitoring will have to be supplemented by automated warnings of incidents or deviations. According to Patrik Anderson, business development director at Swedish camera manufacturer Axis Communications, it is no
