US-based designer and manufacturer of electronic components for traffic control systems, 41 Eberle Design (EDI), has acquired Reno A&E (Reno) headquartered in Reno, Nevada.

Reno specialises in the production of inductive loop vehicle detectors for the access and parking control, rail and traffic industries, as well as solid state load switches, power supplies, flashers and conflict monitors for the traffic industry.

EDI says this highly complementary add-on enhances its product offering, provides greater industry exposure, and adds depth to its already talented team of product engineers. The acquisition strengthens Eberle’s position in the traffic and access control segment and also provides EDI access to the rail industry, where it has not historically had a presence.

Reno’s strong customer relationships will further diversify Eberle’s customer base and expand Eberle’s geographic footprint. Reno’s technology-driven product development capabilities and engineering team should also accelerate product innovation, enabling both companies to take advantage of opportunities in the rapidly evolving intelligent transportation systems (ITS) market.

    Mobility pricing is the best way of sustaining and enhancing mobility, argues Moving Forward Consulting’s Josef Czako. Mobility pricing (MP) is effectively the culmination of the ‘user pays’ principle and has been referred to in many policy discussions about electronic toll collection, road user charging (RUC), and pricing. MP not only reflects the ‘use more, pay more’ nature of RUC, it also takes account of the external cost of journeys including pollution, noise, the cost of congestion and accidents.

    Historical traffic data provided by TomTom is being used by the local government in Spain’s Basque region to reduce road congestion at less cost. Old habits die hard. Photos from as far back as the 1930s show people counting cars by the roadside in order to provide congestion data to those running road networks. Today, such techniques are still used, albeit augmented by a range of automation technologies such as inductive loops, infra-red sensors and number plate recognition. Even with these advances, howe
