📋 Tender Overview
Project : FRS-004-22
Project Description : The traffic pre-emption technology (Opticom) currently used by Windsor Fire and Rescue is antiquated and the associated equipment requires extensive adjustment and maintenance. Emergency Vehicle Pre-emption (EVP) technology will allow for the control of all traffic signals throughout the city through connections via the KITS Advance Traffic Management System and utilizes existing GPS technology to identify vehicle locations and vehicle speed. Installation of this technology has the potential to reduce response times by as much as 30 seconds on short distance responses and as much as one minute on longer distance responses. This technology could put responders on scene sooner and in greater numbers, and will support the corporate vision of employee safety and public safety.
