Smart Work Zone Systems
Intelligent Transportation Systems for Work Zone Safety
Maintaining roadway safety and efficiency during highway construction requires advanced traffic management. Road maintenance creates unexpected bottlenecks that endanger roadside crews and trigger severe traffic delays.
Smart Work Zone systems combine real-time sensor technology, automated software, and dynamic signage to protect highway workers and motorists. By providing drivers with early alerts and accurate travel times, these systems smooth traffic flow, reduce sudden braking accidents, and mitigate queue-related collisions.
Smart Work Zone Equipment Catalog
We supply, install, and maintain a complete lineup of MUTCD-compliant intelligent transportation equipment tailored to site-specific work zone requirements:
Variable Speed Limit Trailers
High speed is the leading cause of work zone crashes. Variable Speed Limit (VSL) trailers automatically adjust posted speed limits based on real-time traffic conditions, calming traffic and maintaining steady flow through active zones.
Queue Warning Systems
Queue Warning Systems measure vehicle speeds, volume, and occupancy upstream to automatically display advance warnings on dynamic message boards, preventing high-speed rear-end collisions.
Dynamic Lane Merge Systems
Adapts merge strategies based on traffic volume. By guiding drivers to execute early or late zipper merges dynamically, this system calms incoming traffic and eliminates upstream bottle-necking.
Truck Entering Systems
Detects slow-moving construction equipment exiting job sites via HD sensors or radar, automatically triggering flashing warning signs to alert highway traffic to yield safely.
Travel Time Information Systems
Calculates and displays expected transit delays to drivers in advance, enabling commuters to make informed decisions regarding timing or detour options.
Smart Arrow Boards
Smart Arrow Boards combine reliable hardware with cloud-based software, allowing traffic managers to monitor, track, and update arrow panel displays remotely in real time.
Alternative Traffic Routes
Alternate Route Systems utilize dual-display dynamic message signs to compare travel times across primary and secondary corridors, balancing traffic loads across available roads.
Traffic Data Collection
Offers non-intrusive Bluetooth® and radar data collection instruments to gather vehicle speed, count, and classification data for long-term project planning.
Work Zone Cameras
Solar-powered camera trailers stream live high-definition video feeds to project managers and state DOT traffic management centers for continuous site surveillance.
Conflict & Hazard Warning Systems
Includes intrusion detectors, over-height vehicle warnings, and speed feedback signs to alert drivers when operating adjacent to open work zones or severe weather hazards.
Traffic Detection Trailers & Devices
Portable, solar-powered detection platforms utilizing Wavetronix, Houston Radar, and iCone devices to gather real-time traffic metrics and feed data into ITS networks.
