Pedestrian Safety

 SLTS offers a wide variety of Campbell Company pedestrian push buttons to comply with all agency standards and requirements.   Pedestrian Safety and decreasing the spread of germs are at the heart of the Guardian Wave, the latest touchless independent system from Campbell Company.  No longer will pedestrians have to push the same button as countless others.  With easy wiring access and configuration, the Guardian Wave APS has a simple and flexible configuration, and delivers safety, simplicity, reliability, and cost-effectiveness at any intersection. 

 The Rectangular Rapid Flash Beacon (RRFB) is a device using LED flashing beacons in combination with pedestrian warning signs, to provide a high-visibility strobe-like warning to drivers when pedestrians use a crosswalk. In general, RRFBs are a visual cue that pedestrians may begin crossing the roadway at any time. They are always accompanied by crosswalk markings and signs. According to a recent study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, RRFBs were found to increase the effectiveness  in causing drivers to yield to pedestrians from 0-26% to 72-96%.   

 High visibility LED enhanced signs are designed to attract vehicle drivers to upcoming hazards or areas of pedestrian activity.  The LEDs are activated by various methods and are effective day or night.  These signs been shown to significantly improve driver attention and reduce incidents in locations such as crosswalks, school zones, parks, playgrounds, shopping malls, and hospitals.  Just about any warning or regulatory sign can be outfitted with high visibility LEDs.

 LED Enhanced delineation systems respond to an activation from your signal control cabinet to delineate turning movements or to alert drivers approaching pedestrian crossings.  The In-Road Warning Lights (IRWL) dramatically enhance the left turn lane lines to improve safety and reduce the number of accidents caused  by vehicles cutting or drifting into adjacent lanes.   Activated by the pedestrian, a crosswalk system flashes a barrier of daytime visible LEDS directly in the driver's ling of sight making the crosswalk dramatically more visible than it would be with just roadside beacons, RRFBs, or static signs.
