129 Swarco Traffic has launched a range of highly reliable mini-signals for towns and cities looking to install street-level signals for bicycle lanes.

The first signals are already being installed in the UK on new Cycle Superhighway routes.

Manufactured in high-strength polycarbonate, the signals are available in either a vertical or horizontal mounting.
