Swiss manufacturer of non-intrusive traffic and parking detectors 1803 ADEC technologies has supplied 100 TDC3-2 (TLS 2+0) overhead traffic detectors for the new control system being installed on the A3 road project in Germany. The contract includes 29 display panels with traffic detection systems.


The TDC3 Series is a family of advanced traffic detectors using Doppler radar, ultrasound and passive infrared to provide comprehensive traffic data for each vehicle, including vehicle class, speed, length, occupancy time and time gap.

Installed in cooperation with system integrator QSG Verkehrstechnik, the newly-constructed traffic control system covers over a distance of around 20 kilometres and completes the currently-existing systems.

    Siemens has introduced a microwave radar-based cycle detector called WiMag. The sensor is buried in the road surface and covers a 3m wide lane which the company said means that unlike loops, the cyclist does not have to pass directly over the sensor to be identified. It is secured in a 100mm diameter core-drilled hole using silicone sealant, has a minimum five-year battery life and transmits to repeaters at a distance of up to 30m. The sensor can now be used to detect the presence of bicycles, provide count
