Dorset with its rural image has looked to remote monitoring as a means of being able to establish centrally the functioning of its traffic signal equipment as far apart as Lyme Regis in the west with its Devon border and Highcliffe/Christchurch and the Hampshire boundary to Shaftesbury/Gillingham and Sherborne to the northern boundaries with Wiltshire and Somerset. The earliest system 'DUET' which was pioneered by Leicestershire County Council almost a decade ago has since been updated and is now known as 'REMAC', was of obvious interest. There are presently some 180 traffic signal installations of various types within the County of Dorset as a whole and their numbers are increasing by some 8 % each year. Following competitive tender a new County wide maintenance contract was let and came into operation in April 1983. This new 'third party' maintenance service enabled the County to achieve consierable savings on the previous annual charges for maintenance and at the same time maintenance standards throughout the County were raised to a level exceeding the best that previously existed.
