SANTA ANA, Calif. – January 9, 2018 – Iteris, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITI), the global leader in applied informatics for transportation and agriculture, today announced that it has partnered with C&T Technology to expand distribution of its roadway sensors technology across the United Kingdom and Ireland.

The deal will see Iteris’ full range of vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian detection solutions, as well as its cloud-based performance analytics software, sold through C&T Technology’s extensive distribution network.

According to ITS UK and the Irish Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport, there will be heavy investment across the UK and Ireland over the next 10 years, with calls for more sensor technology, data collection and multimodal detection. Iteris products are well suited to support the region’s ongoing efforts to make roads smarter, safer, less congested and more efficient for all road users.

“We are very pleased to announce the addition of C&T Technology to our European distribution channel,” said Todd Kreter, senior vice president and general manager, Roadway Sensors at Iteris. “This is an important step for our UK and Irish expansion. C&T is the ideal partner to deliver the sales and support of Iteris products due to its long history of traffic engineering expertise in the region.”

“This agreement is an exciting step forward in our mission to create a portfolio of products relating to the roads and highways industry that draw on the experience of other countries and industries,” said Chris Webb, director of C&T Technology. “I believe that Iteris, with their excellent distributor training and support, will provide a quality range of solutions for the UK and Irish markets.”
