Cameras to boost Stena port safety

[ November 25, 2025   //   Chris Lewis ]

Stena Line has rolled-out Camera Telematics’ multi-camera system to over 100 terminal tractors, buses and luggage vans at five UK and Irish ports to improve safety.

The two partners have developed a customised solution with an initial trial at Dublin Port, before a phased implementation across the Irish Sea business. The telematics solution has now been rolled out at Fishguard, Belfast, Birkenhead and Cairnryan.

Terminal tractors and buses have been fitted with the iC360 connected mobile digital video recorder (MDVR) with a 1TB internal hard drive to deliver a five-camera solution, with a three-camera system for the luggage vans. Each vehicle has an in-cab monitor with side and/or reversing camera triggers to provide a driving aid and detect any nearby vulnerable port worker.

The terminal tractors have been fitted with forward, rear and driver facing devices, with side view cameras covering the nearside and blindside, while the buses include an internal device looking at the passenger aisle.
