To further improve highway safety, 20 Bosch MIC IP starlight 7000 HD video cameras have been added to the video surveillance system.

Today, a new MIC 7000 camera system was installed on a bridge...for free...just to test drive it. That's the power of a global manufacturer combined with a solid local partnership between the manufacturer's representative and the end user.

The MIC is being evaluated as a replacement for nearly two dozen standard dome cameras, many of which have failed once or more since initial installation only a couple years ago.
