PoliScan

VITRONIC Nordic East has won a contract from Belarus’ national road safety authority to provide its PoliScan laser-based speed enforcement units.

The scope of the new agreement covers an initial order for 60 PoliScan speed enforcement systems, including 50 stationary and ten mobile units.

The first batch of the units has already been delivered to Belarus.

Safe Roads of Belarus supervisory board chairman Dmitri Kurnosenko said that the authority conducted tests under several road-related and meteorological conditions – and recorded great results with the device.

"By determining the speed using a method involving a laser scanner, traffic offenders can be precisely identified," Kurnosenko said.

VITRONIC’s PoliScan systems use light detection and ranging technology that works with an invisible infrared laser and delivers readings that are more reliable and fairer on drivers than those from conventional radar systems.

The maintenance costs for PoliScan systems are also lower compared with conventional loop technology.

Since its establishment in 2013, VITRONIC Nordic East has secured several contracts for traffic monitoring systems from Eastern Europe, including countries such as Estonia and the Czech Republic.
