559 AGD Systems comes to 136 Traffex with a range of new developments, such as the new Janus5 MRWL, which can provide information wirelessly up to 550m in urban and inter-urban environments, giving significant advantages over expensive underground ducting. Meanwhile, the AGD307 is a new compact, low-power 24GHz radar family that lends itself to deployment worldwide. The smallest detector ever produced in AGD history, the device will offer considerable user flexibility of deployment for applications from junction control to sign and speed measurement applications. Models will include basic switched versions and also RS422-enabled communications for more demanding sign applications.

    AGD’s new multi-lane monitoring radar, the 342MM, is an FMCW radar measuring the number and speed, range and length of passing vehicles for traffic profiling and incident detection. According to AGD, the radar monitors multi-lane highways at 195 frames per second, allowing it to process up to ten times more data per vehicle than some other units, providing greater count, speed and length accuracy. The high frame rate is said to reduce the effects of occlusion from central reserve concrete barriers and other

    As authorities strive to reduce expenditure and carbon emissions, Colin Sowman looks at some of the smart ways of managing street lighting while containing costs and maintaining safety. Street lighting can account for 40% of an authority’s energy consumption. So, faced with the need to reduce outgoings, some authorities are looking for smart ways of managing street lighting or even turning off swathes of street lights in the small hours. Back in 2008 the E-street Initiative report concluded that authorities
