LaneWarden Messenger
Portable changeable message sign that measures the traffic it warns
A full-matrix portable message sign with a Doppler radar facing oncoming traffic. It posts queue, delay and hazard messages from an approved library, and falls back to a safe message on its own if its data stops.

LaneWarden Pace
Variable speed limit sign with speed feedback
A trailer-mounted regulatory speed limit sign with a YOUR SPEED display. It shows the work zone limit when workers are present and the normal limit when they are not, inside the envelope the agency approved.

LaneWarden Lookout
Camera, radar and edge-AI trailer
A solar mast trailer with a 40× pan-tilt-zoom camera, two AI cameras and a side-fire radar. It gives operators eyes on the corridor and measures traffic in both directions, with travel-time, weather and satellite options.

LaneWarden Sentinel
Worker-protection trailer that alarms before a vehicle reaches the crew
A mast trailer at the upstream end of the taper or flagger station. Tracking radar and AI cameras watch the approach; when a vehicle is on course for the work space or cannot stop for the flagger, it sounds a 110 dB siren and strobes, texts the foreman and saves the video.

LaneWarden Pulse
Queue-detection radar trailer
A light solar mast trailer with a side-fire radar that measures speed, volume and occupancy in both directions. Pulses fill the gaps between the other nodes so a queue tail is always near a detection point.

LaneWarden Entry Alert
Warning for trucks entering the highway
A radar on the haul road or access watches for trucks about to enter the highway. When one approaches, beacons on a TRUCKS ENTERING WHEN FLASHING sign 500 ft upstream flash for 30 to 45 seconds.
Corridor backboneLocate the work zone
LaneWarden Marker
Location beacon for the start and end of the work zone
A GPS beacon on a drum or barricade at the start and end of the work zone, so the published work zone matches the road, and staff get an alert if the device is moved or knocked over.

LaneWarden Arrow Link
Connected kit for the contractor's arrow board
A connected kit fitted to the contractor's arrow board. It reports the board's pattern and position, so Command and the WZDx feed show the lane closure without anyone calling it in.
