73 Iteris has reported total revenues of US18.1 million for its fiscal first quarter 2015, up six per cent over the same quarter a year ago. This was primarily driven by a 20 per cent increase in roadway sensors. iPerform revenues were also up 15 per cent, while transportation systems revenues were down seven per cent, but added US$10.1 million in new contracts

The increase in roadway sensors revenues was largely attributable to the success of various growth initiatives, including increases in the distribution of certain OEM products for the intersection market and higher unit sales of key products. iPerform revenues were primarily driven by increases in iPeMS performance measurement sales and ClearPath Weather services, which are legacy offerings in iPerform. The decline in transportation systems revenues was primarily attributed to timing delays with the start of certain new projects in the backlog, as well as a reduction in sub-consultant activity in the current quarter.

“Our first quarter fiscal 2015 results were encouraging, with double-digit growth in our roadway sensors business,” said Abbas Mohaddes, president and CEO of Iteris. “The record first quarter in roadway sensors was primarily due to strong demand for key products, including Vector, Velocity, and SmartCycle, as well as our planned increase in the sale of OEM distributed products. While our transportation systems segment was down this quarter, we entered into US$10.1 million of new transportation systems contracts in the first quarter that we expect to have a positive impact on our revenue in future quarters.

“We expect our core businesses will continue to fund our strategic investments in this exciting new marketplace, which should lead to growth in new target markets that can generate positive returns for our shareholders.”

    Eric G. O’Rear and Wallace E. Tyner look at the benefits of mileage charges and how these might be implemented. Since the early 1900s, taxes on petrol (gasoline) and diesel fuels have been used to finance the construction and maintenance of roadway infrastructure and, in some countries other government spending too. Now, a combination of improved fuel economy, the advent of hybrid and alternative fuelled vehicles and a reluctance in some countries (especially the US) to increase fuel taxes has led to a d
  • Moody’s more bullish on prospects for US toll roads
    December 6, 2013
    Moody’s Investor Services have up-rated the outlook for US toll roads from negative to stable. They think traffic should grow 1.5 per cent on a median basis in 2014, which they describe as a “sustainable comeback” from the three per cent decline since 2009. They think toll revenues should grow to a “mid-single digit percentage range” in 2013 and 2014 which we guess means 4 per cent to 6 per cent. They note such an increase in toll revenues is a slowdown from 2012 when big toll rate increases boosted r

The technology which uses our roads will also provide information on road conditions but V2X isn’t the only
