Highways UK stand:  D33

SRL Traffic Systems is launching at Highways UK a range of solutions to help customers tackle the enduring issues of sustainability and road worker safety.  A new portable traffic signal, designed to offer extended running times on small-scale, short-term works is accompanied by a fresh addition to SRL’s REMOS portfolio to protect site personnel.

RadioLight Pro and RadioLight Pro: Eco

The manufacturer and supplier of mobile ITS (intelligent transport systems) will launch RadioLight Pro at the show, along with RadioLight Pro:Eco, which incorporates an integrated solar lid.

The new innovation is based on the company’s popular RadioLight signal which was designed to provide traffic management companies, highway authorities and contractors with a reliable, cost-effective solution.

The new product provides significant improvements on the original, including an extended battery life of up to around three weeks for RadioLight Pro, minimising exchange frequency and widening the range of projects for which it is suitable.  The longer running time is due to Mk3 low energy aspect lamps and the incorporation of SRL’s Solar PLUS technology in RadioLight Pro:Eco.

Lighter weight posts and a streamlined axel combine to create highly portable signals that are easy to install and manoeuvre;  RadioLight Pro weighs just 84 kg and RadioLight Pro:Eco 94 kg.

The product boasts strong sustainability credentials.  In addition to requiring fewer battery exchanges than its predecessor, limiting carbon emissions and site visits, it incorporates a remanufactured core, featuring boxes and heads previously used in the original RadioLight fleet.  Reflecting SRL’s commitment to a circular business model, it helps minimise waste.

Added stability is provided by a redesigned foot, and five bullet locks promote the resilience of the galvanised steel units.  An upgraded aerial facilitates improved, reliable radio connectivity.

REMOS

Highways UK also marks the further expansion of SRL’s pioneering REMOS portfolio.  Believed to be the UK’s first scalable remotely operated mobile signal and designed to promote road worker safety, it already includes REMOS Max and REMOS Flex service solutions for medium- to long- and shorter-term schemes respectively. The show will see the launch of SolarLight REMOS, a remotely operated version of the company’s well-established temporary SolarLight signal, featuring dual aspect solar panels to minimise battery exchanges on longer-term works and incorporating a distinctive yellow box.

Said SRL’s business development director, Ben Parsons: “We are proud to launch new products that harness industry-leading mobile ITS technology help customers tackle two of the biggest issues in the traffic management industry today:  sustainability and road worker safety.  These priorities will continue to sit at the heart of our product development strategy.”
