SWARCO Traffic to help Cambridgeshire CC reduce congestion and improve air quality

ongoing

SWARCO Traffic Ltd has signed a new agreement with Cambridgeshire County Council to replace existing traffic technology with an innovative new traffic guidance and parking solution to reduce congestion and improve air quality in and around the city. SWARCO will install 17 full colour RGB Matrix signs at strategic locations across Cambridge and the surrounding areas, which can be programmed to display any image and provide traffic information and guidance for drivers, as well as any upcoming events. The signs are fully UTMC compatible and will be managed via SWARCO’s intelligent Zephyr solution, that enables messages to be set from anywhere at any time, remotely, and monitor the sign LED’s and luminance sensor, as well as checking for any power failure. As part of the new solution, SWARCO will also install 11 count control cabinets at Cambridge’s Park & Ride sites to advise drivers on availability. The counters slim design will also reduce on-street clutter.
