RoadPod® VL 5805
Vehicle Loop Counter
When only traffic volume is required, inductive loops are the most efficient solution, without compromising on accuracy. By capturing the presence of a vehicle with a single inductive loop, one RoadPod® VL 5805 can monitor vehicle numbers on up to four lanes of traffic for up to 4 years.
With fully configurable bin size and thresholds, this permanent system is ready to adjust to any site specifications.
Commercial Parking Lots and Entryways
To manage the potential of a business location, it is important to be aware of the volume of visitors it attracts. By monitoring incoming traffic, organisations can identify shopping patterns, peak hours, and better capitalise on consumer trends.Assessing Toll Gate management
The RoadPod® VL 5805 has proven very efficient when investigating the correlation between toll gate revenue and the traffic volume. Validation of revenue versus traffic volume provides owners with a reliable overview of toll performance.Binned Counts on Busy Roads
Ideal for monitoring busy roads, the RoadPod® VL 5805 can collect ongoing volume data for years, covering up to four lanes of traffic with a single unit connected to four loops. Where classification is not required, the MC5805 is the most effective solution.
Accurate and Reliable Volumes
MetroCount’s inductive loop systems are built from high-quality, reliable components. Enabling easy upgrade options, this counter can connect to loops already embedded on the road, assuming they are in working order. Contractors familiar with traffic signal sensors will be equipped to carry out loop installations.
The RoadPod® VL 5805 offers a set of diagnostic tools bundled in the MTE software. Loop Scope provides feedback on the condition of loops. Meanwhile, Loop Monitor tests connections and terminals. Together they characterise the site hardware and supply a full diagnostic of the equipment to provide logical troubleshoot pathways.
