Speed remains the single most dangerous safety hazard at temporary roadwork and construction sites. Addressing speed to create a safe work environment, Downer initiated a series of nationwide trials to assess different technology solutions, traffic plans and safety equipment.
More than 41,000 vehicle data points have been collected at roadwork sites across all Australian states; each site followed a standardised set of traffic plans to ensure data output is comparable.
The eSAS® was deployed to interact with motorists, logging data of driver behaviours, such as speed, time, as well as GPS location of the sign. The analysed data concluded that the most effective system to REDUCE SPEED on the approach was the application of the eSAS®.
ARROWES’ eSAS® increased speed compliance on approach by 24% on average. Making the eSAS® even more effective, certain optional features have proven valuable. Our engineering team can provide different sizes, display arrangements and mounting options.
Please contact us for a demo or further discussion on safety in your area of responsibility. Our in-house engineering team will customise the eSAS® for your application and use.
