Swiss company 4022 ADEC Technologies has delivered customised software to over 150 TDC3-5 vehicle classifiers that will help the city of Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, to get a grip on its traffic situation.

4023 Signaal, an Estonian manufacturer and installer of traffic products, was appointed to provide city-wide traffic information so that officials can base any decisions for infrastructure investments, including priority-lanes for buses, on factual data. As a result, classification needs were somewhat different form the ordinary TLS-based classification scheme.

As Ats Tamm, Signal chairman explains, “In particular, we were looking for separate classes for our trolleys and articulated buses. ADEC Technologies worked closely with our engineers and added our classification needs to their detectors in very short time. The test results clearly exceed our expectations. We’re very pleased with the professionalism and speed that ADEC Technologies managed to implement our needs and have the products delivered so quickly.”

Less than four years ago industry publications were filled with a persistent message, the reluctance of UK based contractors to adopt machine control to the same extent as near European neighbours, particularly close ones such as Ireland and Holland.

    Good, readable analysis of road surfaces to ensure sufficient maintenance funding is an essential part of asset management. The technical side of ensuring a good road surface is integral to maintaining safe, superior highway infrastructure. But securing sufficient government funding for such work – repairs and new-build – based on the current road surface is also essential. To evaluate road conditions and structure for such a business case, one UK local council turned to software provider Yotta.
