Abstract Weigh-in-motion (WIM) sensors allow to estimate the static force applied on each wheel, respectively on each axle of the vehicle, as well as the total weight of the vehicle, based on the measurements made in dynamic mode, usually without disruption to traffic. WIM stations are complex systems which can use a lot of sensors for: measuring speed - inductive loops and radars; detecting the presence of axles - electromagnetic sensors; worn bearings - using IR cameras; vehicles identifying - video cameras and so on. This paper discusses about a new concept of WIM sensor, designed in COMPETE project from "Gheorghe Asachi"Technical University of Iasi, developed for urban traffic monitoring, which can be integrated into Smart City structure and synchronise it with intelligent transport systems. This new concept can be useful for the local municipality, for traffic monitoring agencies and for avoid traffic gems. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
