Traffic counting and classifying cameras rolling out in NSW

May 9, 2024 6:37 am in by

Transport for NSW is installing a number of machine learning traffic counting and classifying cameras across the state, including near Wentworth.

The world-first technology is being trialled in NSW to analyse freight vehicles to help reduce congestion and ensure goods are delivered sooner and more efficiently. 

The solar-powered, artificial intelligence-enabled technology was designed and built in Australia, with the first iteration of the world-leading software developed by staff at Transport for NSW.

Images of heavy vehicles are taken by the cameras which then classify the type of vehicle in transit and the type of cargo being transported.

This new heavy vehicle traffic data will be used to improve Transport for NSW’s understanding of heavy vehicle and freight movement.
