AGD Systems, part of The Traffic Group (TTG), will supply traffic signal detectors and nearside detectors to the Tees Valley region in northern England.

The winning of the tender is part of a long-standing partnership with the five Tees Valley local authorities, according to AGD Systems.

The framework contract will see AGD’s advanced detection systems deployed across the Tees Valley to optimise traffic signal control and pedestrian crossings.

AGD says that its traffic signal detectors will provide highly accurate vehicle detection, ensuring efficient signal phasing to reduce congestion and emissions.

Meanwhile, the nearside detectors will deliver responsive, precise detection at pedestrian crossings, contributing to a more accessible and pedestrian-friendly environment, said Kieran Corbally, senior commercial manager at AGD Systems: “AGD’s advanced detection technology is designed for precision, reliability and ease of deployment, providing an effective solution for both motorists and pedestrians.”
