International Road Dynamics Inc. (USA) - Press Release: International Road Dynamics Inc. (IRD), a Quarterhill Inc. ("Quarterhill") company (TSX: QTRH) (OTCQX: QTRHF), announced today that the company has been awarded a contract for three Virtual Weigh-In-Motion ("VWIM") systems for the Indiana Department of Transportation ("INDOT") valued at $1.9 million. The new systems will be used by INDOT for infrastructure protection and planning purposes. All financial information in this press release is reported in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

IRD will supply and supervise the installation of the VWIM systems on newly paved sections of I-69 and I-465. The VWIM sites will provide high-accuracy traffic and load data to the State for planning, roadway design, and weight compliance purposes. VWIM systems provide a streamlined, efficient, and cost-effective solution for weight monitoring and enforcement and will support INDOT's efforts to preserve roads and bridges against premature wear.

The VWIM sites will be monitored using IRD's Virtual Weigh Station software, an industry-leading, web-based solution for remotely viewing vehicle records. IRD's iSINC roadside WIM controller forms the core of the system, acquires data from the weigh-in-motion sensors, and determines vehicle class and weight compliance. All three sites will be equipped with cameras to provide an overview of the checkpoint locations and capture license plate numbers to aid in law enforcement efforts.

"We are pleased to see INDOT once again select IRD's Virtual Weigh Station solution for newly commissioned VWIM sites in the state," said Rish Malhotra, IRD President and CEO. "VWIM systems were introduced in the late 1990s to help state DOTs cope with ever-increasing commercial vehicle traffic, and this technology continues to be essential to their plans for vehicle data collection and weight enforcement. With a proven software platform, coupled with advanced roadside electronics, IRD continues to lead the commercial vehicle compliance and enforcement market with trusted solutions."
