Description
Boom barrier traffic control is a method of regulating the flow of vehicles or pedestrians through a controlled point, such as a parking lot, a bridge, a toll booth, or a restricted area. Boom barriers are also known as boom gates, and they consist of a bar or pole that is pivoted to allow the boom to rise or lower. Boom barriers can be operated manually or automatically, using various technologies such as push buttons, remote controls, RFID tags, loop detectors, opto-electronic sensors, or automatic number plate recognition systems
