An innovative next-generation solution from 2879 Vitronic enables police forces to provide fixed and mobile speed enforcement from a single solution. The 'dual-use' housing system consists of LIDAR (laser-based) technology which captures speeding vehicles on up to three lanes in a single direction.

The first of VITRONIC's pioneering system solutions has been sold to the Lithuanian Roads Administration. Consisting of a standard mobile PoliScanspeed enforcement system and a protective housing, both mobile and stationary speed checks can be carried out. The solution for a state-of-the-art system operates in temperatures between -30°C to +45°C.

The mobile components are mounted in the protective stationary housing. When mobile operation is required they can then be easily removed, transferred to a tripod/vehicle and then reinstalled after mobile surveillance is completed.

The core 3098 Laser Technology provides a multi-lane, multi-vehicle capacity with lane-specific speed detection. This software provides Automated Licence Plate Recognition (ALPR) and creates documents which are valid in a court of law.

    Improved surface quality and improved machine design are key trends in the asphalt paving sector, Mike Woof reports There is a big difference in asphalt paving techniques in North America and Europe. In North America, the need to construct long stretches of highway quickly resulted in wide pavers offering high throughput capacity, with compaction equipment then being used to achieve the required density of the various courses. In Europe's highway construction projects, distances tend to be shorter and contr
