Edeva to deliver two ActiBumps to Curtain University in Western Australia

Both Actibumps will be installed on Townsing Drive while a third is to replace a ‘dumb bump’, a moulded black plastic bump near the Manning Road entrance, which has caused traffic to slow down to a near stop.

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.
