Abstract
Closed circuit television (cctv) systems are a useful tool for managing the interurban highway network. They allow control room operators to provide appropriate response to incidents and events on the highway. Cctv infrastructure in the interurban environment has been expensive to provide adequate coverage of the whole network. This paper seeks to address this by investigating the possibilities of reducing the cost of implementing individual sites. The paper is based on work undertaken for the uk highways agencyto improve the business case for cctv. The output is guidance on how to identify and implement cctv at lower cost.
