Traffic Signal Installation and Maintenance FAQs

Regular maintenance is vital for maintaining the optimal functioning of traffic lights. Strain Electric advocates for a comprehensive maintenance regimen, including quarterly and yearly inspections. These proactive steps encompass cleaning the lights, assessing their electrical components, and testing their performance.

Strain Electric assesses several critical factors when determining the need for traffic lights at a specific location. These include the volume of vehicular and pedestrian traffic, accident history, the geometry of the intersection, and complex traffic patterns. We work closely with traffic engineers and local authorities to analyze traffic studies and conduct site evaluations before recommending the installation of a traffic signal.

Upgrading traffic signals is essential when they begin to exhibit signs of wear and tear, no longer meet the traffic requirements of an area, or become outdated. Strain Electric can thoroughly assess your existing infrastructure, considering factors like increased traffic congestion, frequent bulb replacements, or components failing to meet current standards and regulations. An upgrade may also be warranted if there’s an opportunity to improve energy efficiency, such as switching to LED lighting, or to enhance traffic flow with newer, smarter traffic management systems.
