559 AGD Systems will be showcasing its range of intelligent radar detection systems at Intertraffic Amsterdam. New for 2016 is the launch of the company’s most sophisticated intelligent radar yet. The ‘350’ measures not only the speed and range of vehicles but also captures their angle from the radar. This means that road authorities can see vehicles’ complete approach to junctions and can also see exactly what is happening throughout the junction in real time.

AGD says this makes its latest radar ideal for hosting red light and yellow box enforcement systems. The ‘350’ can be positioned either in front of or behind an intersection stop-line to ensure the radar covers a precise trigger point at the intersection. This provides authorities with comprehensive information and good flexibility of deployment within existing infrastructure.

The company says that with over two decades of experience designing and developing intelligent radar detection technology, it has the expertise and technical know-how to accurately monitor and measure traffic flows for speed enforcement, red light and yellow box enforcement and road data gathering.

Plans are in place to transform the detection market further by introducing more dynamic traffic data input with vehicle speeds to controllers to deliver enhanced junction efficiency.

    Field trials under way in Arizona promise eradication of accidents between emergency vehicles at intersections – as part of a national focus on ‘intelligent signal’ infrastructure. Collisions between police cars, ambulances and fire crews as they reach intersections at the same time, with equal priority given by all signals set on red, are as serious as they sound absurd. For emergency teams and those in need of their help, the consequences are dire. The solution could come from application of connected veh
