New infra-red traffic logger
In other words, a red light and speed detectorA new traffic measurement system called The Infra-Red Traffic Logger (TIRTL) has been developed by a Melbourne-based company, with one of its units already set-up in the Victorian capital.
TIRTL consists of transmitter and receiver units on opposite sides of a carriageway, and uses two parallel and two cross beams below axle height to measure and classify passing vehicles.
The system also has an infra-red light detection system, and is available in fixed and portable applications.

Meanwhile, the Victoria Police and the Department of Justice have announced 30 sites of the existing wet film red light camera network are to be upgraded with digital technology.
The new digital red light cameras will also take on a speed enforcement capacity.
