Video-surveillance System for Traffic Control Management

The NextGenerationEU funds are greatly contributing to the urban development of the city of La Rinconada (Seville). Among the strategies included in this European-wide project, Spain's Recovery, Transformation, and Resilience Plan is one of the most significant ones that have been agreed upon by the European Commission on June 16, 2021, and the Government of Spain on July 13, 2021.

One of the more remarkable technical projects developed within this plan is the procurement, installation, and implementation of a video-surveillance system for traffic control management in La Rinconada.

After the success of pilot project, which consisted in the implementation of traffic monitoring cameras in the junction of Madrid Street with Cultura Street (San José de La Rinconada), we decided to install the system and the road safety management cameras in the remaining locations.

This project has improved citizens’ quality of life through a better car’s routing. The implementation of these security systems benefits our residents substantially, as traffic has increased significantly in La Rinconada municipality.

The total investment for this action amounts to €420,095.06, of which 90% is funded by NextGenerationEU funds, while the remaining 10% has been funded by La Rinconada City Council. Moreover, the total VAT (€69,909.06) is entirely financed by La Rinconada City Council. The impact of this initiative is reflected in the municipality’s recovery, transformation, and resilience improvements, such as the video surveillance system implementation and commissioning for traffic control management. This initiative contributes significantly to strengthening public safety.
