Transport for NSW is installing a number of machine learning traffic counting and classifying cameras across the state.

Transport for NSW is installing a number of machine learning traffic counting and classifying cameras across the state.

Images of heavy vehicles are taken by the cameras, which then classify the type of vehicle in transit and the type of cargo being transported.

This heavy vehicle traffic information is helping Transport for NSW shape the future of freight, to better understand freight movements, improve road safety, and enable more efficient deliveries.

The cameras are not used for enforcement.

People can expect to see cameras installed at the following locations over the coming weeks:

·         Castlereagh Hwy, Lightning Ridge

·         Carnarvon Hwy, Moree

·         Gwydir Hwy, Glen Innes

·         New England Hwy, Tenterfield

·         Bengalla Rd, Bengalla

·         John Renshaw Dr, Buttai

·         John Renshaw Dr, Buchanan.

For more information, please visit the Machine Learning cameras webpage which includes a factsheet with details about what these units are and what they do.
