UK company 521 CA Traffic has supplied a journey time system, based on its Evo8 ANPR cameras and Evolution software to Costain Carrillion JV as part of the contract to improve the M1 motorway on a 24km section between junctions 10 and 13. The system will provide journey planning information to road users via temporary electronic message signs on the heavily used route that runs from London up to the north of England.

CA Traffic says Evo8 is suitable for permanent installation as a journey time system, or for data collection or security applications. It is also easy to deploy as a portable or temporary installation for origin/destination studies, security checks, or monitoring major road schemes.
