US-based 542 Global Traffic Technologies (GTT) has entered into a partnership with Middle East IT specialist and systems integrator Omnix International to distribute their products in the region.

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.
