Two from Transpo

Transpo's T-28 Color-Safe Surface Transpo Industries has launched two new products: the T-28 Color-Safe Surface and T-78 Polymer Crack Sealer. T-28 is an acrylic-based resin system used for pavement area markings and anti-skid surfacing. Typically used for demarcation of bicycle/pedestrian paths, bus stops/lanes and other specially designated areas, it enhances skid resistance while its colour warns travellers of hazardous turns and other high accident areas on asphalt and concrete roadways.

T-28 Color-Safe Surface and T-78 Polymer Crack Sealer.

 T-28 is an acrylic-based resin system used for pavement area markings and anti-skid surfacing. Typically used for demarcation of bicycle/pedestrian paths, bus stops/lanes and other specially designated areas, it enhances skid resistance while its colour warns travellers of hazardous turns and other high accident areas on asphalt and concrete roadways.

 Meanwhile, T-78 is a low-viscosity, methyl methacrylate resin system that is highly effective for sealing and filling cracks in concrete. It bonds well to the inner walls of cracks, restoring strength and preventing crack propagation. Capable of rapid cure (under one hour) in a wide range of temperatures, the application process requires minimal labour costs, reducing the need for specialised equipment.

    Wireless traffic data in real time
    The effect of moving objects on the electromagnetic landscape set up by cellular telephony networks can be detected and interpreted to give real-time traffic data across large geographical areas at low cost. Here, we revisit the Celldar concept. Global economic downturn has pushed public-sector agencies, transport administrations among them, to push even harder for cost efficiencies. Unfortunately, when it comes to transport safety and efficiency the public sector often has to work up to a cost rather than

    Substantial savings from smarter street lighting
    As authorities strive to reduce expenditure and carbon emissions, Colin Sowman looks at some of the smart ways of managing street lighting while containing costs and maintaining safety. Street lighting can account for 40% of an authority’s energy consumption. So, faced with the need to reduce outgoings, some authorities are looking for smart ways of managing street lighting or even turning off swathes of street lights in the small hours. Back in 2008 the E-street Initiative report concluded that authorities

    Options abound for road weather sensing
    Meteorological organisations invest millions in super-computers to crunch data for ever-more accurate forecasts but inherent unpredictability means that other methods of alerting drivers and road authorities to fast-changing weather and highway conditions are essential. For years, static weather sensors to measure factors such as surface water, ice or high roadway temperatures have been embedded in highways to provide such data. But that is changing.

    David Crawford cherrypicks conference and award highlights Almost 30% of all US citizens live in rural areas or very small communities, and 34 of the 50 states exceed this level in their own populations, with the proportions rising as high as 85%. And although rural routes carry only 35% of all traffic, the accidents that occur on them account for some 54% of all US road traffic accident deaths.
