Swedish speed-control system Actibump introduced to Ontario municipalities as cities seek effective alternatives to banned speed cameras
Edeva is introducing Actibump to municipalities, traffic engineers and transportation authorities in Ontario as cities look for effective ways to reduce speeding in school zones, community safety zones and other safety-critical urban locations after the ban of their speed cameras.
With municipal speed cameras no longer available in Ontario, local authorities are under pressure to identify road safety measures that improve driver compliance while still working in real traffic conditions. For many municipalities, that means looking beyond enforcement and toward infrastructure-based solutions that can support long-term Vision Zero goals.
That is where Actibump stands out.
“Municipalities need road safety measures that work in real traffic and in all weathers,” said Karin Wiklund, Marketing Manager at Edeva. “Actibump has been in operation in Sweden for 15 years and has strong references from real-world installations. The Swedish Transport Administration uses it in complex situations on their roads.”
Edeva is now engaging with municipalities and transportation stakeholders in Ontario to discuss how Actibump can support safer streets in a changing policy environment.
Karin is going to be in Toronto 4-5 of May, at the OTC Summit in Kingston the 6-8 of May and in Montréal 11-12 of May. Book a meeting with her!
