TRUCKS ENTERING HIGHWAY SYSTEMS Improve Traffic Flow, Improve Worker Safety & Improve Driver Safety
WORK ZONE SAFETY SmartZone’s Vehicle Ingress Notification System (Vehicle Entering Highway System) informs motorists of construction vehicles merging into traffic within the work zone. Providing this real-time information allows the traveling public to adjust vehicle speed and safely travel through the work zone.
KEEPING TRAFFIC FLOWING Sensors placed in a work zone detect construction vehicles exiting the zone and attempting to merge into traffic. SmartZone software analyzes the sensor data, and instantly changes a message board display or activates flashing warning beacons located up- stream which advise motorists of the impending merge. Motorists reduce speed or change lanes to allow the construction vehicle access to the travel lane with minimal effect on overall traffic flow.
