28 Oct, 2025

MAV Systems is delighted to reflect on an outstanding two days at Highways UK, where The Traffic Group stand was lively and engaging from the moment the event opened. We welcomed a wide range of partners—both new and long-standing—who were keen to learn more about the MAV AiQ and its clear, immediate benefits for intelligent transport applications. The interest and discussions throughout the event demonstrated once again the strong market demand for advanced, reliable, and future-focused ANPR technology.

Showcasing The Traffic Group Portfolio

Working alongside our sister companies, AGD Systems and Traffic Group Signals, we were proud to present the full portfolio of Traffic Group technologies. Together, we showcased how our combined solutions enhance efficiency, accuracy, and performance across highways, ITS, and smart mobility environments. Visitors were particularly impressed by the breadth of capability—from AGD’s traffic detection technologies to Traffic Group Signals’ innovative control solutions—highlighting the strength of the group’s integrated approach.

Advancing ANPR for Public Protection

During the event, we also caught up with Tom Stone from Traffic Technology International, who was eager to explore how the MAV AiQ is contributing to safer roads across the UK. Andy Humphries provided insight into the system’s revolutionary features, including GhostPlate™ Technology, which plays a pivotal role in identifying illegal vehicles, criminal behaviour, and dangerous driving. These innovations support wider national efforts, including Sarah Coombes’ campaign to strengthen penalties for those who misuse Ghost Plates to evade the law.

A Successful Highways UK event

As Highways UK drew to a close, we were thrilled by the number of meaningful conversations, new connections, and promising partnership opportunities generated over the two days. The enthusiasm from visitors reaffirmed the MAV AiQ’s reputation as a leading ANPR solution capable of transforming modern traffic systems.

Looking Ahead with Momentum

We extend our sincere thanks to everyone who visited us and to our colleagues across The Traffic Group for their collaboration throughout the event. MAV Systems looks forward to building on the positive momentum generated at Highways UK and continuing to support advancements in safer, smarter, and more efficient transport networks.
