Automated Flaggers

Best Used For:

  • One-Lane Traffic Control: Controls alternating traffic when one lane is closed for construction or maintenance.

  • Long-Term Work Zones: Ideal for projects requiring traffic control for extended periods.

  • High-Traffic Areas: Useful where frequent vehicle movement makes manual flagging more difficult or hazardous.

  • Remote or Low-Staffed Work Zones: Provides traffic control where having a dedicated flagger may not be practical.

Benefits:

  • Improved Worker Safety: Reduces the need for employees to stand directly in or near moving traffic.

  • Consistent Traffic Control: Provides reliable and predictable stop-and-go signals for drivers.

  • Reduced Labor Needs: Can minimize the number of employees required for continuous traffic control, especially in unconventional or hazardous locations.

  • Increased Efficiency: Allows workers to focus on construction activities while automated equipment manages traffic.

  • Easy to Relocate: Equipment can be moved as the work zone changes, making it useful for mobile construction projects.
