Econolite is expanding its Texas operations to include traffic management cabinet manufacturing at its Houston facilities primarily through increasing its local workforce.

Abbas Mohaddes, Econolite president, says: “This expansion in Houston will enhance our capabilities in helping our customers and partners while employing additional local workforce.”

The traffic management cabinet is an essential infrastructure component of a signalised intersection that houses the intelligent traffic signal controller, sensors and communications technologies that provide intersection and system traffic control and management.

Econolite’s Houston operations support the company's ITS traffic management systems and field maintenance services in Harris County and throughout Texas. 

The Houston facility also provides statewide warehousing, training, product testing, and repair programes.

Econolite is to continue working with distribution channel partner Paradigm Traffic Systems to achieve its expansion.
