Swiss manufacturer of non-intrusive road-traffic detectors 1803 ADEC Technologies has extended its range of Doppler radar traffic detectors with the 75 metre detection range of the TDD1-MW75, which is specifically designed for green phase request or extension at temporary or permanent traffic lights.

The detector augments the TDD1 series of Doppler radar traffic detectors that provide simple contact closure output and allow for easy customisation using an infrared remote.

The TDD1-MW75 can be configured for detection ranges of 30, 45 and 75 metres using the infrared remote control, available as an accessory.

    Siemens has extended its range of kerbside detection solutions with the introduction of a new Heimdall kerbside volumetric pedestrian detector. Based on advanced above-ground radar technology, the detector has the capability to indicate the occupancy of the pedestrian waiting area at any given time, allowing the most appropriate kerbside strategies to be selected depending on the numbers of pedestrians waiting to cross. The new detector is suited to areas of high pedestrian presence, such as shopping centre

    A combination of technologies is leading to major congestion and cost reductions during roadworks on the UK’s motorway network. Innovative construction programme scheduling technology and the deployment of moveable barriers has achieved substantial savings of money and time on UK motorway roadworks managed by the Highways Agency (HA). This combination has set the scene for a new generation of road usage analysis tools. The HA’s objective was to reduce the congestion caused by lane closures during roa
