Highways & Bridges

Highways play an ever increasingly important role in the transportation of people and goods all around the world. Autoscope systems accurately measure information such as traffic speed and volumes to monitor current congestion levels and forecast journey times. Traffic management systems use this traffic data in real-time to govern traffic flows and to monitor road capacity usage for long-term planning. Traffic information is also displayed on variable message signs and on web sites —thereby assisting motorists with current, accurate and helpful information.
