SRL says the portable wireless Rosgo can be easily and cost-effectively deployed and operated by a single person from a location aof safety up to 200m away. Its 24kg base is the lightest available, the company said, and means one person can lift it.

The 900mm-diameter signs may be used as part of an integrated system comprising up to four units; it is capable of managing four-way stop/go sites. It has lithium batteries that can be recharged using an in-vehicle charger. A single button enables the user to coordinate multiple signs - automatically precluding green conflicts.

SRL has also launched a hand-held device for long-distance control of its Eurolight portable traffic signals. The Euro Remote Control can also facilitate more unusual scenarios - such as railway crossings or slow-moving vehicles – that standard traffic light settings would not be able to accommodate. It features feedback LEDs, confirming phase settings from a 300m distance, allowing the user "an unparalleled degree of control". The unit facilitates the management of manual mode and all-red setting and is rechargeable via USB-C connectivity.

SRL also says its existing Urban64 temporary traffic control system has been enhanced with the introduction of an extendable pole on which the signals are mounted.  

Previously constructed on- site, lights incorporating the new structure are built offsite before being transported to their destination, where the poles are swiftly extended to full height, the firm says. It estimates that the new units "may be cost-effectively installed up to 30% more quickly than the originals".

This reduces the time for which customers are required to manage traffic while the solution is established, minimising road user disruption.
