Faster assessment of road markings from RMS

Drop by the stand of Reflective Measurement Systems (RMS) to see its new RetroTek-M mobile dual-line system which at traffic speed can simultaneously measures the nighttime retroreflective properties of road markings (lines) and of raised pavement markers (studs) on both sides of the traffic lane. According to the company its dual-line mobile retroreflectometers, which meet EN 1436, are twice as efficient as single-line side mounted systems and have the repeatable accuracy of hand-held units.

Drop by the stand of 8387 Reflective Measurement Systems (RMS) to see its new RetroTek-M mobile dual-line system which at traffic speed can simultaneously measures the nighttime retroreflective properties of road markings (lines) and of raised pavement markers (studs) on both sides of the traffic lane.

According to the company its dual-line mobile retroreflectometers, which meet EN 1436, are twice as efficient as single-line side mounted systems and have the repeatable accuracy of hand-held units.

The company will also be using Intertraffic to search for agents or distributors in parts of Asia, Europe and the Middle East.

    IRD, Inc's Terry Bergan discusses future applications of weigh in motion technology. The application in recent years of Weigh In Motion (WIM) at tollgates has been driven by recognition of the fact that there is economic value, which can be levied, attached to Heavy Goods Vehicles (HGVs) which haul laden (and are therefore heavy) rather than empty. As wear and damage to road surfaces increases exponentially with weight, the targeting of HGVs in particular makes sense from both the economic and maintenance p

    Examination of Norway’s tolling companies finds much to praise, and some criticisms too, as Torill Eidsheim told delegates at the ASECAP conference. The cost of collecting tolls has a substantial effect on the profitability, or otherwise, of tolling companies and is within the company’s control to a far greater degree than, for instance, traffic volumes. And while it is easy to assume that all tolling companies incur similar collection costs, that is not always the case according to Torill Eidsheim, pres

    RedflexSpeed-radar, Redflex’s fixed speed enforcement system, has been verified to meet Dutch approval requirements by the Dutch metrology institute, NMi. During testing the camera performed accurately at speeds from 20km/h to 320km/h (12mph to 200mph). The company said this is the first fixed speed enforcement system to utilise dual radar detection to maximise detection rates and eliminate anomalies such as phantom signals, reflections and other noise-related issues. It can accurately determine bi-direct

    Will the relentless growth of Google lead to it becoming the ultimate provider of travel information services? Huw Williams investigates Google’s strategy and David Crawford discovers what two principal rivals are doing to keep pace. In the first weeks of 2012 one company staked two divergent claims on the future of transport. One is the science fiction of only a decade ago, turned into reality: the driverless car. The other seems more prosaic, yet in its own way is just as significant a marker of the futur
