How can you reduce pollution in your city?
Empower your city's environmental initiatives with our comprehensive solutions designed to improve air quality and combat climate change. Using smart cameras, sensors and advanced software, we provide real-time monitoring of harmful emissions and offer sophisticated data analysis and visualization tools for in-depth analysis and targeted interventions.
Furthermore, we facilitate the transformation of cities into Low (or even Zero) Emission Zones. Our integrated solution precisely detects vehicles attempting to enter the area, verifies their access rights based on engine emission standards and controls access via barriers, bollards, or variable message signs. In open access systems, our solution ensures strict enforcement, alerting authorities to unauthorized vehicle entries, strengthening efforts to protect citizens' health and create a cleaner, greener, and more sustainable urban environment.
Brussels' Low Emission Zone
Like Berlin, Paris and other cities, Brussels has implemented a low emission zone to improve the city's air quality. Macq technology - with more than 300 Macq cameras and the powerful Macq Mobility Manager software (M³) linked with LEZ module - has been chosen to improve the situation.
Since January 2018 the most polluting vehicles are banned from the Brussels-Capital region. In the first phase, the ban apply to very old diesel vehicles. The rules will become more stringent in later years. The progressive implementation of the low emission zone will give individuals and businesses affected by the measure time to replace their old vehicles and adjust their mobility behaviour.
We can already see a major improvement in air quality in the Brussels-Capital Region.
