The Nortech vehicle detectors offer accurate data recording
Nortech has designed a range of vehicle detectors that can be set up using a smartphone app. This tool can be used to identify the presence of vehicles through an inductive loop buried beneath a road.


The vehicle detectors come with new features and are backed up with a compact diagnostic unit that links to a smartphone app.

This enables quick and easy detector setup and comprehensive loop fault analysis.

Stable and robust, the units offer automatic frequency selection allowing a 7-series detector to automatically select the best frequency setting to minimise noise and maximise signal strength.

A key benefit of the 7-series range is its fast recovery time between one vehicle and the next. The recovery is the time taken by the detector to reset after detection and being ready for the next approaching vehicle. Nortech detectors have a shorter recovery time compared to similar products, which enables them to respond quicker to reduce the possibility of tailgating, loss of revenue and increase the level of security.

    Deck waterproofing remains critical to a bridge’s structural integrity for its design life, explains Cliff Weston, director of Stirling Lloyd To properly maintain deck waterproofing there must be a willingness to look at solutions based on whole-life costing rather than just short-term initial costs. There are lessons to be learned from examples of prematurely failed infrastructure due to a focus on initial short-term costs.

    Wirtgen’s new W 220 XFi cold milling machine has been designed to work across as many applications as possile, “from surface layer rehabilitation to complete asphalt removal,” says the German manufacturer.

    “Specific carbon emissions are low and milling performance is high plus, in automatic mode, Mill Assist selects the operating strategy with the most favourable balance between milling performance and operating costs.”
