School Zone safety

Of all road scenarios, School Zones are required to ensure the safety of children.  While class is in session, drivers are responsible for maintaining safety and awareness on the streets surrounding schools.

Keeping children safe at school is one of the highest concerns we have as parents, teachers, administrators, and as an industry. With proper planning and implementation, technology can be used that puts children’s safety at the forefront of driving through a school zone. TraffiCalm’s School Zone makes a safe route to and from school, every day.

TraffiCalm proposes three solutions designed to ensure every trip to school is safe

Let us help design your TraffiCalm School Zone

 TraffiCalm™ Flashing Sign Systems provide an unprecedented approach to slowing speeding drivers. The controller receives input from a user-generated schedule, an optional radar, or a combination of both to provide active LED flashing of the existing regulatory speed sign. The Basic Controller provides exceptional variability of blinking patterns and speed threshold settings, all from any smartphone, tablet, or PC.
