DIGITAL TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT SYSTEMS- A NEW AGE

Transport for London (TfL) enforces traffic regulations on the Transport for London Road Network using camera technology. However, the limitations of the current analogue systems are such that the realisation of TfL's vision for the future requires the change to digital technology. As well as replacing existing systems, the introduction of new technologies is planned. The combination of these innovations will increase the effectiveness of enforcement, allow TfL to increase the types of traffic regulations enforceable, and expand their geographical coverage. In addition, increased efficiency will reduce the time spent reviewing enforcement footage, enabling operators to enforce more sites. For the covering abstract see ITRD E134653.
