VEVA® systems successfully trialed on the Queensferry Crossing, Scotland
A total of 8 VEVA® automated movable barrier systems engineered for the Queensferry Crossing have been successfully trialed, significantly reducing the time it takes to reroute traffic on the M90 over the Forth Road Bridge.
Traffic on the M90 was stopped at gantries north and south of the Queensferry Crossing just after midnight in the early hours of Sunday 21 April. The diversion over the Forth Road Bridge was then opened to traffic within 19 minutes.
This has resulted in a dramatic improvement on the six-hour long process to divert traffic before the automated barriers were installed.
The new system has also improved safety by eliminating the need for long diversions that cause congestion and limiting the number of operatives required to work on foot near live traffic.
