US-based Houston Radar, a leading supplier of Doppler and FMCW radars for the traffic industry with customers in over 50 countries, is showcasing three major product innovations – SpeedLane Pro, Tetryon traffic cloud server, Armadillo Tracker and the Armadillo Crossfire.

Houston Radar SpeedLane Pro is an industry-leading true dual-beam, ultra-low power side-fire radar. It is designed to accurately detect lane, speed, and class of individual vehicles and compute per lane volume, occupancy, gap, average speed, 85th percentile and headway parameters in up to 16 lanes on the road in all weather conditions. The SpeedLane won the 2016 Intertraffic Award in the Traffic Management Category.

The product is complemented by Houston Radar’s Tetryon traffic server; a customisable cloud server used to aggregate data from multiple SpeedLane Pro and Armadillo units in one central location. The products are designed to seamlessly integrate out of the box to enable rapid deployment of customers’ traffic data on the web.

The Armadillo Tracker, a highly portable, fully integrated multi-lane bi-directional traffic statistics gathering device, is a leading non-intrusive collector used around the world that is designed to replace road tubes. It is also the smallest and most convenient radar-based stats collection box. The device collects individual time-stamped vehicle counts, speeds and class per direction in up to two adjacent lanes, making it a perfect fit for traffic monitoring and speed study applications.

    ITS technology can do a great deal to improve tunnel safety, as Colin Sowman discovers. It was back in April 2004 that the European Parliament adopted the EU Directive which lays down the Minimum Safety Requirements for Tunnels in the Trans-European Road Network (2004/54/EC). This was the first unitary legislation setting minimum safety standards for European road tunnels and was designed to harmonise the management of tunnel safety at a national level.

    A two-year experiment by the Danish road directorate shows accidents have fallen on single-carriageway rural roads and motorways where the speed limit was raised. Since the speed limit on some stretches of two-way rural roads was increased from 80 to 90 km/h, accidents have decreased due to a reduction in the speed differential between the slowest and fastest cars, resulting in less overtaking. The slowest drivers have increased their speeds, but the fastest 15 per cent drive one km/h slower on average
