Westcotec’s range of ANPR technology offers portable, versatile monitoring tools that sit neatly within wider intelligent traffic and site‑safety systems. The systems are light and portable, meaning they can be quickly and easily deployed with integrated speed radar on public roads and also on private sites for detecting and recording speeding vehicles.
Ideal for Community SpeedWatch and police‑led speed management schemes, Westcotec’s solution brings the benefits of automation to traditional SpeedWatch sessions and supports large-scale casualty‑reduction projects.
Widely used on controlled premises such as RAF bases, airports and industrial sites, the technology detects and deters unsafe driving and riding, leading to high levels of speed‑limit compliance.
Suited to smart, data‑driven traffic management, the systems ensure secure storage of vehicle speed data that’s easily exportable for analysis, Community SpeedWatch letters or wider enforcement and planning work.
Flexible mounting and power options make the systems suitable both for temporary operations and more permanent enforcement or monitoring locations.
Integration with other equipment is simple and straightforward. For example, they work seamlessly alongside Speed Indicator Devices, speed signs and other Westcotec intelligent activation products, allowing real‑time ANPR reads to trigger warnings, messages or wider ITS responses.
