41 Eberle Design Incorporated (EDI), a global leader in engineering and manufacturing of traffic control cabinet peripherals and intersection safety monitoring electronics, and The Traffic Group, (TTG), one of the nation’s leading traffic engineering and transportation planning firms, have created a strategic alliance to provide a suite of EDI privately-labelled custom products to TTG’s customers in the traffic data collection and planning market sector. The Memorandum of Understanding was announced by both firms here at ITS America 2016 San Jose yesterday.

“We are pleased to have an opportunity to work with TTG to pursue traffic data collection and traffic planning projects that we would not normally see in our intersection-based traffic control market,” said Bill Russell (right), president and CEO of Eberle Design. “EDI will customise our ICITE, (Intelligent Cabinet Interface to Traffic Equipment), traffic data collection and reporting products, to meet the specific market requirements of TTG.”

“The Traffic Group is very excited to have access to EDI’s leading-edge data collection devices, and we look forward to working cooperatively with EDI’s established network of local traffic control equipment dealers, to provide the very best real-time traffic data collection services to TTG customers,” said Wes Guckert, PTP, and president of The Traffic Group. “TTG will utilise EDI products to aggregate real-time traffic data, using a variety of traffic sensor technologies, incorporating the data into a turnkey TTG traffic data collection solution that we may provide or may be gathered by the DOT agencies.”
