557 Clearview Traffic Group is using 136 Traffex to launch its new 1875 Astucia Flush Intelligent Road Studs and the newly updated Solar Powered Logging Studs.

The new upgraded road stud is now bi-directional with each direction independently controlled and/or coloured. Thanks to the reduced depth of the stud, it now sits better in the road and also reduces installation costs and time. IP68-rated cable connections on each stud ensure longevity and simple installation, whilst a robust, snowplough-proof exterior means they'll stand the test of time.

The innovative, sustainable Solar Powered Logging Stud from 2057 Golden River is now capable of logging bicycles too, negating the need to lay loops or tubes. Moreover, the studs are discreet and unobtrusive, meaning they're less susceptible to damage.

    At any conference or exhibition, it tends to be the ad libs and asides, the departures from the scripted or official lines, which are the most telling. In mid-February, ITS-UK's Road User Charging Interest Group met in London. The event was no exception to that statement. Keith Mortimer, the Group's chairman, and his colleagues put together one of the better programmes on charging and tolling that I've seen in recent years. Sadly, however, the very positive presentations on deployments and technological pro

    IRD, Inc's Terry Bergan discusses future applications of weigh in motion technology. The application in recent years of Weigh In Motion (WIM) at tollgates has been driven by recognition of the fact that there is economic value, which can be levied, attached to Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) which haul laden (and are therefore heavy) rather than empty. As wear and damage to road surfaces increases exponentially with weight, the targeting of HGVs in particular makes sense from both the economic and maintenance p

High-level analysis by the US's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) of the potential of Vehicle-to-Infrastructure/Infrastructure-to-Vehicle (V2I/I2V) and Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) technologies indicates that V2V could in exclusivity address a large proportion of crashes involving unimpaired drivers. In fact,

    Traficon's Head of Product and Application Management Robin Collaert offers up a discussion of the likely future green requirements of traffic video systems. At the most basic levels, ITS has the potential to significantly reduce the amounts of time which vehicles spend waiting at intersections, and less time spent waiting means less in the way of vehicular emissions. All of that will hardly come as news to most laypeople, let alone transport professionals. However, the reality is that even today too many r
