Zero carbon speed cameras installed at roadworks
Temporary speed cameras at roadworks that do not need to be connected to the power grid or use diesel generators are now being supplied by traffic enforcement specialist Jenoptik. The system – iTASCAR - uses renewable and zero carbon power only, so no CO2 is emitted on site. This is delivered through a combination of wind, solar and hydrogen power which allows schemes to be set up anywhere, even if there is no mains power and where air quality is particularly important, said Jenoptik.
The firm said it has delivered 500 Temporary Automated Speed Cameras At Roadworks (TASCAR) schemes in the past 20 years. These use its SPECS average speed cameras and VECTOR infra-red lighting system to enforce speed limits to keep drivers safe and traffic flowing.
