LaneWarden Pace

Variable speed limit sign with speed feedback
In every kit

Overview

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.

A work zone speed limit only earns respect if it applies when drivers see it. Pace shows the reduced limit while a crew is present and returns to the normal limit when the work area is empty.

Speed feedback gives drivers their own measured speed, and the readings go into Command as another detection point at the start of the reduced-speed zone.

What it does

Pace at work

1

Limit when workers are present

Switches to the work zone limit on the crew schedule and on Sentinel activity, and back when the work area is empty.

2

YOUR SPEED feedback

Displays each approaching driver's measured speed below the limit.

3

Changes inside the approved envelope

Remote changes for ice or incidents are limited to the speeds the agency approved, and every change is logged with who made it and why.

See the work zone limit and YOUR SPEED readings, with the same rules the system runs.
