Journey Time Measurement using ANPR provides the attainment of traffic data by identifying the same vehicle at two or more points in a road network from the recognition of the vehicle's number plate. JTMS is real time monitoring of road network performance, optimising its use, management and operation.

ANPR cameras are strategically deployed to capture number plates along road networks providing real time monitoring, which in turn formulates travel times along the road network.

Benefits include:

Live monitoring of the effectiveness of traffic management schemes
Early warning of traffic incidents
Improve journey time reliability
Reduce disruption caused by major incidents
Provide alternative route advice to minimise the effect of congestion and incidents
Minimise delays due to roadworks
Influence road users' decisions before they set out on a journey about route, time and means of travel
Reduce the effects of congestion
