Blank out and lane control dynamic message signs developed by 7846 SES America (SESA) have been approved by the 7213 Massachusetts Department of Transportation and are now included in the MassDOT Qualified Traffic and Control Equipment List.

SESA’s blank out signs offer customised solutions to meet the needs of a wide variety of projects and are capable of displaying multiple phases of both text and graphics messages, in any colour and any size.

The company’s lane control signs (LCS) provide intelligence via NTCIP reporting when linked with SESA’s SCU6 full color touch screen controller. When used in conjunction with the SCU6 the features of the LCS are expanded to also include control of multiple signs via a single interface, monitoring of component faults/failures and conflict monitoring of each symbol to ensure conflicting lane access symbols are not posted.

Dealing with traffic congestion related to the ‘tidal flows’ caused by large numbers of commuters making their way into major business hubs in the morning and returning to the suburbs in the evening, has seen the widespread use of adaptive signal timing and even reversible lanes.

    Machine vision techniques hold the potential to solve a multitude of challenges facing the transportation sector Optical Character Recognition (OCR), the base technology for number plate recognition, has been in industrial use for more than three decades. It is a prime example of how, instead of having to start from scratch, the transportation sector can leverage and adapt the machine vision expertise already used in industry in order to provide robust solutions with new capabilities. “The real val

    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c
