Bournemouth Borough Council on the south coast of England is the first local authority in the country to deploy 189 Siemens InView, the company’s all new fault management system designed specifically for the traffic market. It allows traffic managers to keep a record of traffic monitoring and control equipment and to track the status of that equipment, including maintenance issues, running costs and equipment reliability.
