The CityRadar

The only rapidly deployable intelligent bicycle and pedestrian detector on the market.

Growing awareness on the benefits of Active Travel has increased the demand for accurate and timely bicycle travel data. To promote the use of bicycles into our daily travel, Traffic planners need access to precise data to make informed decisions on what infrastructure is required.

TagMaster’s CityRadar is designed and optimised for Active Travel applications without the need for in-ground sensors making it quick and easy to install for both temporary and permanent installations.   

• • Directional counting of bicycles and pedestrians  
  • Temporary or permanent installation options 
  • Mount to existing street furniture with no in-ground sensors required 
  • Simultaneous detection of several bikes and pedestrians  

Its ease of installation means that the equipment can be installed and removed quickly by a single engineer, allowing for rapid deployment on existing street furniture. The fast and simple deployment reduces road closures and traffic disruption.

Data can be captured at various locations prior to new cycle ways being introduced to ensure they are in the most effective location. It can also be used to collect bicycle data to allow traffic planners to determine if bicycle path improvements are required.

The CityRadar is sustainable as it can be powered by solar or mains powered for permanent installations, or battery powered for short surveys. It is equipped with a 3G / 4G modem for remote data collection as well as Bluetooth for easy installation and configuration. Smart security is implemented to ensure the high level of security that is a cornerstone of the TagMaster products and combine this with the easy-of-use that is expected. A physical paring (requiring access to the padlock of the equipment) is always used when establishing a connection the very first time. Later use of a Bluetooth connection with the same device is done via a unique password in the background, without requiring any specific user interaction. 

The CityRadar is more reliable, cost effective and has an extensive operational life than traditional inductive loops.  Traffic planners can rely on TagMaster’s CityRadar to manage bicycle traffic flows.
