Navtech Radar launches tunnel safety solution

Navtech Radar has launched a sensor to complement its ClearWay solution and provide automatic incident detection (AID) coverage in highways and tunnels for 175m in both directions. Phil Avery, the company’s managing director, claims that the solution is ideal for applications where line-of-sight is limited. Called CTS175, the solution features Clearview’s AID solution and can be used for traffic applications, including roads, tunnels and bridges.

819 Navtech Radar has launched a sensor to complement its ClearWay solution and provide automatic incident detection (AID) coverage in highways and tunnels for 175m in both directions. Phil Avery, the company’s managing director, claims that the solution is ideal for applications where line-of-sight is limited.


Called CTS175, the solution features Clearview’s AID solution and can be used for traffic applications, including roads, tunnels and bridges.

The company says that a choice of two sensors gives maximum flexibility and enables a more cost-effective solution for shorter range applications.

    Siemens WiMag wireless traffic detection, which is an alternative to conventional loop and radar traffic detection systems, uses magnetic disturbances to detect vehicles and low power wireless technology to transmit data to host controllers. The company says WiMag can offer a more flexible solution than traditional loop detectors, particularly where detection is required at significant distances from the traffic controller. Battery-powered, wirelessly linked and smaller in size than traditional loop detecto

    Someone once likened predicting the future to ‘nailing a jelly to the wall’. With ITS, C-ITS and V2X technology progressing at such a pace, predicting the future is more akin to trying to nail three jellies to the wall – but only having one nail. And yet with roadways having a lifetime measured in decades, that is exactly what highway engineers and traffic planners are expected to do. Fortunately, New Hampshire DoT (NHDoT) believes its technological advances may be able to provide a solution. The Central Ne
