Clearview’s replacement TMU2 boxes – traffic monitoring units
In the UK, 8100 Highways England is replacing its legacy National Traffic Information Service monitoring kits.


Existing traffic monitoring units (TMU) and Traffic Appraisal Modelling and Economics (TAME) kits can now be replaced with new Clearview Intelligence TMU2 traffic monitoring units which provide improved system and data availability.

The orders are being placed with Clearview because of the company’s place on the Crown Commercial Service’s Traffic Management Technology 2 (TMT2) framework contract.

The Crown Commercial Service supports the public sector to achieve maximum commercial value when procuring common goods and services. The TMU2’s can now be called off by regional areas from Highways England depots where units are held as part of routine maintenance stocks, said Nick Lanigan, managing director of Clearview Intelligence.

“We are very pleased with the first year’s orders and look forward to further strengthening the use of the TMT2 framework as a primary ordering channel in 2018,” he said.
