6626 Image Sensing Systems’ non-intrusive radar-based Autoscope RTMS Sx-300 advanced traffic sensor operates in the microwave band to provide a complete, cost-effective above-ground traffic detection solution.

The device’s all-in-one concept combines a high resolution radar and a variety of communications options including wireless solutions all in a single enclosure. This sleek cabinet-free detection station is simple to integrate into any system, whether urban signal control or highway traffic management.

The pole-mounted sensor provides per-lane presence as well as volume, occupancy, speed and classification information in up to 12 user-defined detection zones.

Output information is provided to existing controllers via contact closure and to other computing systems by serial or TCP/IP communication port. A single radar can replace multiple inductive loop detectors.

    A new traffic management solution is attempting to bridge the gap in information available on freeways and arterial roadways. Andrew Bardin Williams reports. Agencies responsible for national networks of roads around the world have the ability to measure, analyse and disseminate accurate travel information to drivers. Millions of dollars go into data collection infrastructure to collect traffic congestion and travel time information on major freeways or highways. For example, a driver on the I-210 in the Lo

    David Crawford takes a look at innovations to reduce crashes at rural intersections. Intersection crashes continue to represent a worryingly large share of deaths and serious injuries across US highway networks. Statistics from the US Department of Transportation’s Federal Highway Administration show that an average of 21% of road traffic accident deaths occur at crossings. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) calculates that intersection crashes account for 48% of all injury-related i
