AI sensors to monitor new cycle lane usage in Wales

  • Date: 03/21/2022

AI sensors from Vivacity Labs are to be installed in three locations, in partnership with Monmouthshire County Council, to gather multi-modal count, path and speed data, as part of Welsh Government’s £75m investment into active travel.

New contraflow cycle lanes in Abergavenny have been deployed in a bid to overcome the barrier to active travel that is in place due to the town’s existing one-way traffic system. Cyclists can now take a direct route across town, making the area safer for cycling, and bicycle routes more efficient than those available to cars.

The ambition is that these changes will incentivise modal shift, reducing congestion and improving air quality in the area, and now Vivacity Labs’ sensors are being installed to assess their effectiveness.
