The London Borough of Bexley is installing automated enforcement systems to capture moving traffic contravention at several key locations.  The contract for the 7513 Videalert fixed/redeployable cameras has been awarded to OpenView Security Solutions and will supplement the council’s existing fleet of CCTV cars and enable enforcement to be extended to improve driver compliance.

    Lisbon city council in Portugal is to set up a new CCTV system in order to monitor the road traffic on the streets of the capital. The system will help the council to enforce traffic penalties on drivers of old pollutant vehicles who are banned from certain central areas, the Reduced Emissions Zones (ZER).
