Combined speed and red light enforcement

Traffex 2011 sees the world launch of the Truvelo 'D-Cam L', a dual-capability speed and red light camera. The versatile device may be used as a speed camera alone, or be deployed at a red light intersection where it will monitor red light offences and act as a speed camera on the green and amber phases.

136 Traffex 2011 sees the world launch of the 143 Truvelo 'D-Cam L', a dual-capability speed and red light camera. The versatile device may be used as a speed camera alone, or be deployed at a red light intersection where it will monitor red light offences and act as a speed camera on the green and amber phases. It digitally signs, encrypts and stores two images for a red light offence and one image for a speed offence.

Up to four laser sensors are permanently mounted in the D-Cam L's roadside housing, along with the camera itself.

There is no roadside computer cabinet required as the D-Cam L contains all the necessary image capture and transmission modules onboard. Images are transmitted to the Truvelo Back-Office Server (TBOS) by ADSL or 3G/HSDPA. One TBOS can handle up to 30 cameras.

    A new generation of ITS equipment is helping road authorities get to grips with cycle safety – and not a moment too soon as Colin Sowman discovers. Cyclists - remember them? Apparently not. At least not according to the OECD 2013 report Cycling, Health and Safety which contains the statement: ‘Cyclists are often forgotten in the design of the road traffic system’. Looking through the statistics that exist (each country appears to compile them differently) it is not difficult to see how such a conclusion cou

  • Options abound for road weather sensing
    September 6, 2017
    Meteorological organisations invest millions in super-computers to crunch data for ever-more accurate forecasts but inherent unpredictability means that other methods of alerting drivers and road authorities to fast-changing weather and highway conditions are essential. For years, static weather sensors to measure factors such as surface water, ice or high roadway temperatures have been embedded in highways to provide such data. But that is changing.

In 1984 when the Miami-Dade Department of Transportation and Public Works’ (DTPW) Metrorail system was launched in southern Florida, trains ran 18km along a single line and stopped at 10 stations.
