Stockholm bypass: Radar Automatic Incident Detection Selected

Förbifart Stockholm is a new 21-kilometre-long route for the European highway (E4) past the Swedish capital. The new link will connect the southern and northern parts of the Stockholm county, relieve the arterial roads and the inner city of traffic and reduce the vulnerability of the Stockholm traffic system. When the link opens for traffic in 2030 it will be one of the longest road tunnels in the world. By 2035, the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket) estimates that the Stockholm bypass will be used by approximately 140.000 vehicles per day. Navtech’s ITS technology has been chosen to improve traffic safety over a 9-kilometre section of the highway, including on and off ramps.

To meet Trafikverket’s safety requirements for the road, Navtech’s radar-based Automatic Incident Detection solution was selected by Yunex Traffic BV., the contractor for communications, control and monitoring for the E4 Stockholm Bypass, as their technology of choice. On the project, Navtech’s 360° radar-based AID solution will provide multiple capabilities from the same system including stopped vehicle detection, slow vehicles, wrong-way driver, pedestrian, and debris detection. In addition to monitoring the open highway, the radar solution will provide AID coverage at the entrance and exit portals of the tunnels, where extreme changes in light affect vision-based instrumentation and driver visibility.

Navtech Radar innovates with radar to deliver world-first capabilities in highway and tunnel safety, critical national infrastructure security and industrial automation. Its solutions provide reliable performance in all conditions and push the boundaries of what is traditionally possible, using its unique 360° radar technology.

Navtech is now part of Halma PLC, acquired after a period of rapid growth. An FTSE 100 company, Halma is a global group of around 45 technology companies that work with a shared purpose to grow a safer, cleaner, healthier future
