Over the past twenty years, the number of cars on Serbian roads has increased significantly. With the rise in traffic, the number of traffic accidents has also risen; the number of injured passengers increased by nearly a quarter in the first quarter of 2021, which led to the decision by the Serbian public company Putevi Srbije to make improving road safety a national priority.

As part of the road reconstruction and safety project in Serbia, we included 54 sensor stations for weather monitoring on the highway Autoput 1 and 27 stations on regional roads. This is a topographically very varied road network; each area has its own microclimate, meaning that conditions on the road change from kilometer to kilometer. The weather stations along the Autoput 1 route are equipped with the most advanced Lufft sensors and they are powered by solar panels, which allow them to operate independently.

In collaboration with the American company OTT HydroMet and its subsidiary Lufft, which develops weather stations, we planned and executed the project: we supplied the hardware and software, installed the devices and integrated them into the existing system, trained users on how to manage them and we provided maintenance, servicing, troubleshooting and administration.
