557 Clearview Traffic Group is using 136 Traffex to launch its new 1875 Astucia Flush Intelligent Road Studs and the newly updated Solar Powered Logging Studs.

The new upgraded road stud is now bi-directional with each direction independently controlled and/or coloured. Thanks to the reduced depth of the stud, it now sits better in the road and also reduces installation costs and time. IP68-rated cable connections on each stud ensure longevity and simple installation, whilst a robust, snowplough-proof exterior means they'll stand the test of time.

The innovative, sustainable Solar Powered Logging Stud from 2057 Golden River is now capable of logging bicycles too, negating the need to lay loops or tubes. Moreover, the studs are discreet and unobtrusive, meaning they're less susceptible to damage.

Variable Message Signs (VMSs) are a common sight and a well-proven means to improve public safety on our roads and highways. ITS professionals rank the VMS as second only to interoperable radios as the most important technology to improve effectiveness during emergency incidents and evacuations. Ironically, however, current systems suffer from one criti

    Refurbishing old dynamic message signs can save money and increase technical capabilities as David Crawford discovers. Evidence is growing on both sides of the Atlantic of the scope for retrofitting old or technically out-of-date dynamic message signs (DMS) with new electronic equipment, to save on the costs of installing full-scale replacements. In the last four months of 2014, a number of US states progressed programmes that achieved savings of more than US$1.75 million (€1.56million).
