Optotraffic wins speed enforcement contract

Optotraffic has entered into a contract with Chesapeake Beach, Maryland, to provide a complete automated speed enforcement programme in a school zone on state highway 261. Town officials say they are responding to a long-standing issue of speeding in the resort town. “We selected Optotraffic because it is a well known Maryland company that uses an innovative technology, capable of enforcing in two directions simultaneously with only one piece of equipment,” said James L. Parent Jr., town administrator.
