Unwrap Clearer Transport Insights This Festive Season

With the festive period upon us, our data-collection equipment will no doubt capture noticeable shifts in traffic patterns over the coming weeks: fewer commuters, more journeys to holiday destinations, a sharp rise in delivery vans and HGV movements and perhaps even the odd sleigh pulled by green and red reindeers.

These changes aren’t just seasonal. Traffic has evolved significantly in both volume and modal share over recent years. We’ve just recorded the highest number of HGVs on UK roads in 30 years, while at the same time, journeys made by active modes continue to grow year after year.

This evolving traffic landscape poses a significant challenge for road authorities, who must maintain safe and reliable infrastructure while promoting alternatives to car dependency, all amid rising impacts on congestion, air quality, and road-user safety and in an economic climate where securing adequate investment is increasingly difficult.

To achieve Vision Zero (eliminating all traffic fatalities and severe injuries while promoting safe, healthy, and equitable mobility for all), road authorities can no longer work in silos or treat active travel as separate from standard traffic. Collecting active travel and multimodal data together with standard traffic data has become essential to understanding and managing efficiently traffic flows across strategic, urban, and rural networks.

At TagMaster, we are pleased to offer cost-effective all in-one solutions that deliver accurate, reliable data for all transport modes, helping local authorities optimise mobility, enhance safety, and embrace the future of transportation.

Our solutions enable you to:
