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.

    Meteorological organisations invest millions in super-computers to crunch data for ever-more accurate forecasts but inherent unpredictability means that other methods of alerting drivers and road authorities to fast-changing weather and highway conditions are essential. For years, static weather sensors to measure factors such as surface water, ice or high roadway temperatures have been embedded in highways to provide such data. But that is changing.
