Portable Traffic Signal

4-8 weeks. Contact us for current stock and rental availability.

Overview

Portable, solar-powered traffic signal for work zones, detours, and temporary intersections. Wireless synchronization between multiple units.

Who This Is For

Contractors and municipalities managing one-lane work zones, detours, and temporary intersections where flagging crews are expensive, unavailable, or exposed to traffic. Solar-powered with wireless synchronization between multiple units.

Ideal Applications

One-lane bridge and road work zone alternating traffic

Temporary intersection control during construction

Detour route traffic management

Work zones where flagging crews are too expensive or unavailable

What Sets It Apart

Wireless synchronization between units means one set of signals manages alternating traffic without any physical connection between them, set up on opposite sides of the work zone and they coordinate automatically. Solar-powered for extended deployment without generators. Reduces or eliminates the need for flagging crews, significant labor savings on multi-day projects.

Common Upgrade Path

Flagging crews managing alternating traffic at significant daily labor cost, or manual stop/slow sign operations that create safety risks.

When to Consider a Different Model

For short-duration work zones (a few hours), flagging crews may be simpler to deploy. For work zones requiring real-time traffic response beyond timed signals, an AFAD provides more flexible control.
