Purchase Wavetronix Radar Detection System
Department:Traffic Engineering
Presenter:Hameed Malik
Caption:Approve purchase of traffic signal radar detection system from
Wavetronix at a cost of $28,073.
Background:The Traffic Engineering Division of the Augusta Engineering
Department in its charge to continue to improve traffic safety
and flow has been testing a multi-range radar unit at one of our
busiest intersections. After a 60 day trail, the new radar
detection system has improved traffic safety and reduced wait
times at the intersection.
Analysis:Wavetronix is the only manufacturer and distributer of the multi-
range, single unit radar detectors. All other types of radar
devices used for vehicle detection from other manufacturers only
have one midrange radar unit in each housing. Each Wavetronix
unit houses two different radar detectors, one for short distances
and one for long range detection. This will be a sole source
purchase through the Procurement Department if approved by
the Commission
Financial Impact:Adequate funds are available in the Traffic Engineering account.
Alternatives:1) Approve purchase of Wavetronix Radar Detection System. 2)
Do not approve.
Recommendation:Approve Alternative Number One.
