Abstract

Apparatus to monitor vehicle traffic in a road (15), comprising sensor means able to detect the presence of vehicles (14) passing along the road (15) and to emit corresponding transit signals. The sensor means are arranged at intervals along a carriageway of the road (15) and are connected to transceiver means (11) able to receive and process the transit signals in order to generate corresponding processed signals and to send them to at least a control unit (12), which is able to coordinate the transceiver means (11) and is connected to an operational center (13) which controls the traffic.
