Who Pays for Safety? Why Our Contracts Need to Catch Up With Technology
Safety innovation in road construction isn’t lacking technology; it’s limited by contracts. We need safety variation clauses that let new, proven technology be adopted after award, because safer shouldn’t mean harder.
The Right Fit-Out for Your Traffic Control Ute
Building the modern traffic management vehicle, smart, safe, and ready for automation
A properly fitted traffic control vehicle isn’t just a compliance requirement, it’s the foundation of your field operation. The right setup saves time, protects crews, collects valuable data, and pays for itself. The wrong setup adds weight, confusion, and cost.
Preventing End-of-Queue Crashes With Proven Technology
End-of-queue crashes are one of the most common and dangerous incidents in Australian work zones, often caused by distracted drivers colliding with queued traffic at temporary signals. Independent research by Deakin University and iMOVE CRC found that ARROWES’ eSERIES devices, including the eSTOP and eSASb, delivered large reductions in speeding and a measurable decrease in rear-end crash risk. By alerting drivers up to 400m in advance and providing live speed feedback, ARROWES is leading the way in proven, Australian-made safety technology that protects both roadworkers and motorists.

Smarter Safety with eSAS – Speed Awareness Saves Lives
Managing driver speed is one of the greatest challenges on temporary worksites. Arrowes’ Electronic Speed Awareness Signs (ESAS) provide real-time feedback to drivers, instantly influencing behaviour and reducing speeding incidents. With built-in data collection, ESAS supports a risk-based approach, giving contractors the insights needed to design safer worksites and make smarter traffic management decisions.
Road Safety in Australia: Why Removing Frontline Personnel Matters
Australia’s road safety workers face deadly risks daily. ARROWES’ eSTOP, eSAS, eBOOM, and Automated Cone Truck remove frontline personnel from danger, improving compliance, cutting costs, and saving lives on worksites.
