Portable Traffic Signals for Roundabout Construction

Discover how Street Smart’s portable traffic signals improved work zone safety and maintained efficient traffic flow during a busy roundabout construction project in Battle Ground, Washington.

Coordinated Traffic Control for Complex Roundabout Construction

During roundabout construction in Battle Ground, Washington, Street Smart Rental deployed a coordinated portable traffic signal system to safely manage traffic through an active work zone. While the project was located in a rural area, the primary roadway experienced heavy traffic during peak travel times, making reliable temporary traffic control essential.

Our system featured:

  • Two Portable Traffic Signals coordinated to control traffic from three separate entrances into the work zone, safely alternativing vehicle movements while maintaining effcient traffic flow.
  • Remote Monitoring and Programming that allowed signal timing to be adjusted as construction progressed, reducing the need for on-site intervention and improving overall project efficiency.

This traffic control solution maintained efficient traffic flow, improved safety for motorists and construction crews, eliminated the need for human flaggers, and provided a reliable alternative to traditional work zone traffic control.

Portable signals like these are ideal for roundabout and intersection construction projects,:offering

  • Equipment RENTAL option eliminates ownership costs
  • Rapid deployment – set up in less than 20 minutes
  • Automated / autonomous control + 24/7 live stream camera
  • Cost-effective labor savings
  • MUTCD compliance

Whether you’re managing a roundabout reconstruction, intersection improvement, or another complex work zone, Street Smart’s portable traffic signal systems help improve safety, reduce delays, and keep projects moving efficiently.

Residential Driveway Temporary Signal

Uses

The Residential Driveway Temporary Signal (formerly known as a Driveway Assistance Device) has a small footprint and is used to control intersections involving low-traffic side-roads or driveways. It’s proprietary Tumble Timing™ ​technology prevents motorists from driving the wrong way in a work zone.

Features

The Residential Driveway Temporary Signal (formerly known as a Driveway Assistance Device) is bottom-heavy for stability and has a small footprint compared to a full-size Portable Traffic Signal.

The tumble-timing feature minimizes the wait time for motorists as they safely cross or enter the work zone.

It uses quad-redundant communications, ensuring reliable connectivity suitable for use in long work zones spanning more than a mile.

The unit incorporates on-board batteries and solar panels, enabling it to run for weeks and often months without charging.
