The municipality of Reichenau im Mühlkreis is taking a step towards a sense of responsibility and improved road safety with a new, mobile speedometer.
The device, which was purchased by the “MiR – Miteinander in Reichenau” association with financial support from the engineering office TrEMTec KG, is now available to the municipality. In the future, the speed display will be used in a targeted manner at critical points in the municipal area in order to improve road safety in Reichenau.
The system was commissioned in the presence of Mayor Peter Rechberger. Since then, more than 2600 measurements have been carried out and meaningfully evaluated by the installed software. The community hopes that these figures will help them make decisions so that they can implement effective traffic safety measures in the local area in the future.
Ultimately, the learning effect for the drivers themselves is at least as important as these measures, since they are shown the speed they are driving at directly and can therefore immediately adapt their driving behavior. And be immediately rewarded with a green smiley.
