What is this plastic Hose on the roads?

Did anyone see this plastic hose lay on the road of the industrial area?
I saw it but not from adequate space , and the end of it is connected to a device which I could not recognize because I am in my car ?
Has anyone an idea about what it is .... Maybe it's something related to radar ?

It is used to carry out surveys relating usually to traffic flows..

Gathers data like - number of cars passing at any given time..
