How to Choose the Best Traffic Signal System for Pedestrians

I would evaluate the passability, the intensity of vehicle traffic, as well as the number of violations by pedestrians. If there are always few cars or pedestrians at a crosswalk, or both, then a regular pedestrian traffic light with a well-tuned schedule will be quite sufficient. Transport modeling programs will help you set up this schedule. If there are a lot of cars and people at a pedestrian crossing, then the most appropriate solution seems to me to be a pedestrian call button. It is inexpensive to install and is very efficient in operation. As soon as the number of pedestrian violations increases, you should immediately think about how to reduce the waiting time for the green phase. And here you can&#;t do without &#;smart&#; solutions.

A traffic signal system is a critical component of any urban infrastructure. At intersections, pedestrian crossings and other traffic points, traffic is not only regulated but also significantly influenced. At Yunex Traffic, we develop traffic signal systems that actively optimise traffic flow, improve pedestrian and cyclist safety and save energy.

A revolution in urban mobiliy

Every city needs state of the art traffic signals &#; and this is why

Cities with more conventional and therefore outdated traffic signals face a number of problems today and in the future that significantly impair the efficiency, safety and environmental friendliness of their traffic network.

Inefficient traffic flow

Without dynamic traffic control, traffic management often depends on outdated, rigid timetables. This leads to unnecessary delays and congestion, especially during peak traffic times or unforeseen traffic increases. The lack of ability to respond to real-time data can significantly impede traffic flow and worsen urban mobility. Modern control units, such as our sX control unit, controls our traffic signal systems in such a way that allows us to react to traffic situations.

Environmental impact

Cities without modern traffic light systems have difficulties in effectively reducing their CO2 emissions. Conventional signaling systems often have a high energy consumption. Thanks to our 1-watt technology for traffic light systems, massive energy savings can be made as the signal heads are operated with one watt each.

Lack of road safety

Traditional traffic signal systems do not have the advanced monitoring and analysis capabilities that modern intelligent systems offer. This limits their ability to prioritize cyclists or pedestrians through green waves, reducing the safety of these road users. The latest models from Yunex Traffic have detection built into the housing, reducing the need for additional technology at intersections.

High operating and maintenance costs

Reliance on outdated technology can increase operating and maintenance costs for urban transportation systems. Conventional traffic signal systems require more frequent maintenance andreplacement of parts, leading to higher costs in the long run. New enclosures from Yunex Traffic allow for easier maintenance with doors that open on both sides. Without the energy efficiency of modern LED technology, electrical costs are also significantly higher.

Missed opportunities for modernization and integration

Cities without access to intelligent transport solutions are missing out on the opportunity to modernize and better integrate their transport systems. They cannot reap the benefits of a more connected and coordinated system that not only improves traffic flow but also provides data for further urban planning measures.

Benefits for all road users

These are the implications for citizens and decision-makers

For your citizens:

1. Higher risk for accidents: Lack of advanced monitoring and response to driving behavior increases the risk of accidents. This leads to personal and financial losses as well as a general feeling of insecurity in urban areas.
2. Lower quality of life: Congestion and high emission levels contribute to air pollution and noise pollution, which negatively affects the general quality of life. This can contribute to health problems such as respiratory diseases and stress-related complaints.
3. Loss of time and increased stress: Inefficient traffic flows lead to longer commuting times. This causes daily stress and eats up valuable time that citizens could instead use to spend with their families or for hobbies.

For decision makers:

1. Political and social responsibility: Mayors and city councilors are under pressure to find effective solutions to transportation problems. Failures in this area can lead to dissatisfaction among voters and jeopardize their support in future elections.
2. Economic burdens: High operating and maintenance costs for outdated transportation systems can put a strain on city budgets. These funds are then lacking in other important areas such as education, health or social services.
3. Failure to achieve sustainability: Failure to implement effective measures to reduce CO2 emissions can lead to cities missing their climate targets. This not only results in potential penalties but can also affect eligibility for future investments and environmental funding.
