Siqura partners with Transcore on Riyadh mobility project

Dutch company Siqura recently partnered with US-based Transcore to supply the government of Saudi Arabia with an IP video surveillance system for the capital, Riyadh. Siqura will install digital speed-dome cameras at 350 intersections to monitor traffic, all linked to each other via an IP fibre optic network and monitored from a central control room, allowing operators to regulate traffic remotely. The project is due to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2016.
