Queue Warning System

SmartZone ITS

SmartZone’s Queue Warning System notifies motorists of traffic conditions leading into work zones or typically congested areas. Providing this information in real-time allows motorists to adjust to conditions by slowing down or braking.

How It Works

In a Queue Warning System sensors are placed upstream from a work zone or typically congested area to monitor traffic volume. As volume changes, message boards (portable changeable message signs (PCMS) /dynamic message boards) will provide real-time updates, keeping drivers informed.

Messaging used in this solution include:

  • Traffic congestion alert
  • Lane closures
  • Estimated delay times
  • Alternate routes options

Benefits:

  • Increased driver awareness
  • Reduced rate of primary and secondary crashes
  • Reduced traffic delays
