69 International Road Dynamics (IRD) has been awarded a contract, valued at over US$1 million, for a high-speed Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) system by 1878 New Brunswick Department of Transportation in Canada.

The company will act as prime contractor to design, supply, install, and maintain a mainline WIM pre-clearance system on the eastbound lanes of Route No.2 to be located near the Salisbury Weigh Scale Facility. IRD has already supplied and integrated similar systems at the Salisbury Westbound, Deerwood, Waweig, and Longs Creek weigh scale facilities in New Brunswick.

The new Salisbury system will incorporate a combination of single load cell WIM scales, piezoelectric sensors, license plate readers, side view image cameras, operator interface, and system electronics.
