Golden River wins TfL contract for wireless vehicle detection system

Transport for London (TfL) has awarded Golden River Traffic a framework contract for the supply of wireless magnetometers for SCOOT deployment and associated services. With an initial contract duration of 12 months and potential to extend for up to a further four years, Golden River, a division of Clearview Traffic Group, will be supplying the M100 Wireless vehicle detection system which is a cost effective alternative to inductive loops and ideally suited to SCOOT and MOVA deployments.

1466 Transport for London (TfL) has awarded 2057 Golden River Traffic a framework contract for the supply of wireless magnetometers for SCOOT deployment and associated services. With an initial contract duration of 12 months and potential to extend for up to a further four years, Golden River, a division of 557 Clearview Traffic Group, will be supplying the M100 Wireless vehicle detection system which is a cost effective alternative to inductive loops and ideally suited to SCOOT and MOVA deployments.

Since gaining full UK TR2512A type approval in 2009, the system has earned broad acceptance, with the company rolling out its 150th installation earlier in the year. It is claimed that the M100, which offers over 98 per cent accuracy for vehicle presence and speed, is the only wireless solution that is compatible with all major brands of traffic signal controllers.

    City of York Council is to introduce thermal imaging technology on key cycle routes in York to help reduce the time spent at traffic signals, improve journey reliability and cycle safety. The city is set to become one of the first councils in the country to start using the technology which will accurately detect cyclists at signals by their ‘heat signature’, allowing the signals to react accordingly and be adjusted to give more ‘green time’ for cyclists. The thermal technology was first introduced by
