Wanco Smart Work Zone Systems help keep roads safe by providing motorists with real-time traffic updates as they approach a work zone. Hybrid systems combine technology such as radar, Bluetooth, video cameras and computer systems for monitoring and communicating updates to drivers when there are hazardous or unexpected driving conditions. The technologies work together as one cohesive unit in order to provide the safest work zone possible. Every system is custom-designed by experts who understand the intricacies, needs and risks involved.
Hybrid Smart Work Zone Systems use the following ITS solutions to save lives, time and money:
- Trucks Entering Highway Warning Systems identify when construction vehicles are leaving a worksite and entering the highway, to warn drivers of oncoming vehicles
- Queue Detection & Warning Systems identify stopped or slowed traffic in real time, to warn drivers ahead of time and prevent accidents
- Travel Time Measurement Systems use sensors to calculate accurate travel times, and dynamic messaging to communicate those times to drivers
- Traffic Camera Systems provide remote monitoring of traffic and road conditions, so incidents can be quickly identified and cleared
- 24/7 online access is available for monitoring and controlling the entire system from any location
- Automatic alerts can send real-time updates to the contractors and DOT personnel via email or text
- All systems can work together seamlessly
