Stertil-Koni announced that it has been awarded a record number of contract orders, in excess of 120 units over a four-month period, for its inground vehicle lifting systems. The contracts represent the largest order surge of its type in the company’s history.
Stertil-Koni vehicle lifts selected by transit agencies, municipalities, and corporate customers in North America recently for these orders include the Diamondlift - a high-pressure, low-volume telescopic piston lift with a capacity of up to 35,000 pounds per piston, or 105,000 pounds in a three-piston configuration – and the Ecolift – an ultra-shallow (34-inch pit), full-rise (70-inch) inground scissor lift with a capacity of 30,000 pounds per piston, or 90,000 pounds in a three-piston configuration.
A sampling of recent innovations to this vehicle lifting segment at Stertil-Koni includes:
Continuous recess on Diamondlift, an option that allows the bolster to recess flush to the floor anywhere in the horizontal range of piston travel
ebright Smart Control System on Diamondlift and Ecolift, whereby the technician on the shop floor has access to all relevant lifting information via an illuminated, 7-inch touch-screen panel on the free-standing control console for each lift
Differential adapter on Diamondlift, an option engineered to safely and easily lift vehicles by the rear differential
Diamondlift in frame version, designed for concrete foundations and replacement situations.
A major goal of the pilot, which begins in April, is to test the speed, functionality, and durability of new handheld devices to scan Ventra and paper tickets.
Traditionally, bus lane enforcement has relied on manual processes carried out by transit police or parking enforcement officers. While it may be effective in certain municipalities, this approach is resource-intensive and very difficult to sustain.
A phased approach to technology, in-house capabilities, and workforce investment is helping transportation leaders break the reactive cycle and build more resilient, revenue-focused operations.
The landmark event empowers riders across six agencies in the Puget Sound region to tap-and-ride transit using a contactless credit or debit card or a mobile wallet.
Now in its latest edition, the awards recognize forward-thinking solutions that improve safety, operational efficiency, sustainability, rider experience, and overall system performance.
Menard discusses how data-driven signal prioritization is improving efficiency, reliability, and ridership, while offering insight into the innovations driving the next generation of smart mobility. Together, they explore how technology and collaboration are paving the way for a more connected, sustainable future in transit.
The pilot program showcases two companies’ technology at eight bus stops. The companies submitted their ideas through the Transit Tech Lab, which is backed by the Partnership Fund for New York City and provides an accelerated pathway for early to growth-stage companies to solve public transportation challenges for the largest transit agencies in North America.
