Safety Vision LLC recently won a $5.6 million dollar contract to provide mobile video surveillance equipment for the Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada.
In total, 227 buses will be retrofitted, of which 130 are double-decker buses, 49 are articulated buses, and 48 are forty foot low-floor buses. Several major competitors were bypassed, providing Safety Vision with the winning bid.
“Our levels of dedication to winning this prominent bid were more prolific than ever, and it paid off,” said Archie Doyle, Safety Vision’s lead account executive for the proposal.
The RTC will be using an advanced network video recording system (NVR) to provide video and audio surveillance over public transportation options. NVRs transmit video over an on-bus network infrastructure, allowing for high resolution footage and remote viewing. The RTC purchased Safety Vision’s RoadRecorder 7000S. As well, over 2,500 high definition cameras will be deployed to help eliminate driver blind spots and monitor all passenger activities. Safety Vision will also provide RTC with wireless downloading equipment.
