AddSecure to provide proactive fleet technology to avoid DVS consequences
NORTHAMPTON, England, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — AddSecure will deploy its latest PSS solution across NE Transport Solutions’ vehicles, ensuring DVS compliance and preventing potential fines.
Leading European provider of secure IoT connectivity and end-to-end solutions, AddSecure, has joined forces with Essex-based transport operator, NE Transport Solutions, to ensure the safety of vulnerable road users across London.
NE Transport Solutions provide general haulage across the UK, operating a fleet of 34 vehicles. The company works with major European suppliers providing last mile delivery of their goods to construction sites across London and needed to make sure every vehicle was ready for the regulation changes coming into force later this year.
Transport for London (TFL)’s Direct Vision Standard (DVS) is due to change in October 2024, meaning heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) will need to fit a Progressive Safe System (PSS) – which warns drivers of the presence of vulnerable road users in blind spots at the nearside and front of the vehicle – if falling beneath the three-star threshold.
With a market-leading PSS offering, NE Transport Solutions approached AddSecure to provide and fit their latest solution to each of its 34 vehicles, ensuring it was operating DVS-compliant fleet and avoiding potential fines.
Zoltan Serfozo, Transport Manager, NE Transport Solutions, said; “With AddSecure as our new supplier, we’re now able to install a standalone solution, that doesn’t need to be integrated with our existing telematics or vehicle cameras. We feel this minimises risk to our business as it’s efficient, effective and avoids vehicle downtime.”
Zoltan has proactively implemented AddSecure’s RoadView BSD solution into his business ahead of the October 2024 deadline, enabling NE Transport Solutions to avoid any potential distruption that might be experienced with an influx of requests nearer the time.
Ensuring the entire fleet is compliant well ahead of the deadline will mitigate any potential restrictions on vehicle entry to London – resulting in a seamless service and customer satisfaction.
Paul Lawrence, managing director at AddSecure UK, said: “The pending changes to operating fleets within the Greater London area is something every operator needs to be aware of. NE Transport Solutions have taken the step of ensuring its vehicles are DVS compliant well ahead of the October deadline.
“We are seeing an increase in businesses looking to install equipment ahead of the changes and urge any operators considering making the change to act sooner rather than later to avoid delays with installation.”

Green Utopia made in Green Tech Valley 2024
GRAZ, Austria, May 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — When carbon busters combat toxic gases in the atmosphere, when moulded components grow directly from trees or when bacteria as “employees” in industry ensure clean production, then this is Green Utopia – made in Green Tech Valley 2024. Eight short videos show how strong research at the site is making a green future possible.
The climate crisis requires a rapid rethink and innovative solutions. In the second edition of the cross-university and cross-cluster project “Green Utopia – made in Green Tech Valley”, teams of students from local colleges and universities have once again translated current high-tech research at the location into utopian and visionary short videos. Eight utopias were presented on the big stage last week at the high-calibre award ceremony.
Why utopias? The purposeful dreaming that is made possible in this way harbours massive power for the upcoming energy, mobility and resource turnaround. The visions combine technological research and social change. They include the production of hydrogen from pollutants, the use of cyanobacteria for green materials, the suburbs as climate sponges for water and heat, nature as a legal entity, plastic-free compost, wood as a high-tech material, rails as an electric motorway and plant-based blood vessels from the printer. Today’s utopias are tomorrow’s reality
“More and more technologies based on disruptive research for a green future are coming from Europe, especially from Green Tech Valley in the south of Austria. These utopias make economic courage inwardly and excellent research outwardly internationally visible,” says Green Tech Valley Managing Director Bernhard Puttinger. The short videos were created by teams of students from FH Joanneum, TU Graz, the University of Graz and the University of Leoben together with Creative Industries and Holzcluster Steiermark. These are now being widely communicated internationally in a campaign. Eberhard Schrempf, Managing Director of Creative Industries Styria: “Utopias are the reality of tomorrow, according to the motto: We dream it, so we can do it!”

Statements:
Horst Bischof, Rector of Technical University Graz: “‘Sustainable Systems’ is TU Graz’s greatest area of scientific strength. Here, researchers from all disciplines and faculties work together on complex challenges and research sustainable solutions. The spectrum of research topics ranges from future-orientated urban planning, innovative building technologies and the use of renewable energy sources to intelligent energy networks and green mobility. In disciplines such as railway research, hydrogen research or sustainable energy systems, TU Graz is one of the international research leaders. A location becomes a centre of innovation when it thinks and researches across disciplines, institutions and borders and works on solutions for major social challenges. Styria is such a place, where bright minds are uninhibited and inspired to research encouraging utopias. And initiatives like Green Utopia give them the stage.”
Peter Moser, Rector of Montanuniversität Leoben: “The major challenges facing society in the areas of resource scarcity, climate, energy and the environment predominantly require the use of technical and scientific methods. The University of Leoben sees its task as making a significant contribution to overcoming these challenges through excellent research and high-quality education. One current project involves the construction of the new hydrogen centre, which will open in autumn. In future, this centre will conduct research at the highest level into the production of green hydrogen. Or in the field of recycling, where basic principles such as digital, sensor-based waste analysis and sorting technologies are being researched at a research facility. The University of Leoben has always been characterised by its networking and interdisciplinary cooperation. The Green Utopia project will further strengthen the location while benefiting the individual stakeholders. This project also offers space for visionary ideas and bold solutions.”
Martin Payer, Managing Director of FH Joanneum: “As a university of the future, FH JOANNEUM is convinced that green utopias are needed to make the future of our society worth living in. We encourage people to think ahead and conduct research into important topics such as digitalisation, health, climate change, energy and mobility. Students and lecturers at all our institutes are therefore already tackling future topics in a practical way: the Energy Lab and Mobility Lab at FH JOANNEUM in Kapfenberg are researching renewable energies and forms of mobility, among other things. Environmentally friendly aviation is the focus of the Aviation degree programme in Graz, sustainable tourism at the Institute of Health and Tourism Management at FH JOANNEUM in Bad Gleichenberg. And last but not least, our Information Design students deal with green utopias when they visualise the contents of the eight green research utopias of ‘Green Utopia’ in order to communicate them to the public.”
Peter Riedler, Rector of the University of Graz: “At the University of Graz, we provide answers to the questions of our time. For these major challenges, including digital change, social upheaval and the climate crisis, the University of Graz provides solutions and explanations that we bring to the people. For example, our researchers have achieved a breakthrough that could become a game changer for the plastics industry. Chemists have developed a fully recyclable, bio-based epoxy plastic. An innovation with major implications that combines environmental protection and economic efficiency. Scientists at the University of Graz are used to pushing the boundaries of the everyday and rethinking issues. For example, slowing down climate change requires the expertise of many disciplines: natural sciences, social sciences and law. We also cross borders in our collaboration with the universities on site: for example, with Graz University of Technology for 20 years in the NAWI Graz cooperation.”
