7513 Videalert will open a mobile enforcement vehicle (MEV) engineering hub in Trowbridge, Wiltshire, to meet demand from UK councils.


The company says demand is driven by councils who want to rapidly deploy enforcement to a range of locations where non-compliant drivers are causing congestion or safety issues.

MEVs are equipped with digital camera technology and a suite of software for rapid deployment in enforcement and monitoring applications.

The company says the vehicles are also compatible with its digital video platform to help councils extend enforcement to other areas without needing to make further investments in IT infrastructure.

Tim Daniels, sales and marketing director of Videalert, says the hub will develop multi-purpose vehicles, both cars and bikes, which can be used for parking and traffic management applications.
