Poole, 2017-Feb-21
On 19 February 2017, the system run by Siemens has been live and operational for 10 years and during this time over two billion vehicle detection records have been processed – all with industry leading security and transactional integrity resulting in the highest performing systems from a driver compliance perspective.
The system uses advanced, industry-leading, multi-lane freeflow tolling technology which extends throughout London with more than 1,300 cameras installed at over 300 sites throughout the contract life with the highest level of performance/reliability (greater than 99.9%). In December 2014, Siemens won a contract extension which will see London benefit from the latest in tolling and congestion charging technology from Siemens through to 2021.
