GTT, makers of Opticom priority control solutions and Canoga traffic-sensing solutions, began expanding into the international market last year by creating partnerships with established regional companies.

Omnix will be showing GTT’s traffic management systems at the 2016 MENA Transport show in Dubai later this month, including GTT’s solutions for traffic-sensing and signal priority.
