Including other height restrictions such as car park barriers
View alerts on a map to see an audit of exactly when/where drivers were alerted
No excessive alerting when in queues or on motorways
Around 2000 bridge strikes occur in the UK every year, that's an average of 5 a day. This results in not only huge cost implications, but also significant loss of reputation and even in some cases the loss of a fleet's operating license.
They take place due to poor route planning, distracted drivers, and unknown vehicle heights - all of which are related to human error.
With the Low Bridge Alerting System, no driver input is needed; the driver doesn’t need to know the height of the trailer their tractor is attached to, as it has already been inputted into the alerting system, helping to stop bridge strikes from occurring.
No input needed from drivers in-cab, everything is set up at installation
False positives are eliminated, giving drivers the confidence to take action when alerted
Remote configuration and adjustable set up for accurate and easy installation
Not only will money be saved through bridge strike prevention, the solution itself is very cost-effective
Including tractor and trailer combinations; so no matter the vehicle height, a driver is accurately warned
Know exactly when/where bridge alerts were triggered along with details on the bridge or road height restriction using the map view.
View the location of the alerts via Street View and access details on driving behaviour to provide additional context e.g., if the driver was exceeding the speed limit.
Have a comprehensive audit trail evidencing alerts in a CSV format.
