Edeva to deliver two ActiBumps to Curtain University in Western Australia

Edeva is to deploy two active speed bumps at Curtain University in Perth, Western Australia, following an initial deployment in which speeding was reduced from 70% to 25%.

In July 2018, Curtain University activated two ActiBump systems along a %$Linker: 2 External <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?><dictionary /> 0 0 0 link-external road false http://www.itsinternational.com/categories/detection-monitoring-machine-vision/products/actibump-installed-at-curtain-university-to-tackle-speeding/ false false%> around its campus during the summer break.
