Innovative traffic control systems and illuminated traffic signs company TWM has extended its range of road safety crossing equipment with the patented DayBright PLUS.
The company has said that the DayBright PLUS has a super bright LED mid-post beacon that is designed to give drivers and pedestrians enhanced visibility of pedestrian crossings.
Featuring in excess of 110 high-powered amber directional LEDs that are positioned on each side of the beacon, TWM said DayBright Plus is designed to emit exceptional daylight illumination in all conditions especially on sunny days, with no black spots and in poor weather.
Courtesy of an automatic light dimming photocell, it is then able to dim down at night in order to reduce glare.
The viewing angle of each halo can also be changed to suit the layout of the road in order to eliminate any directional blind spots, and the head can replace any traditional zebra beacon, said TWM.
Commenting on the development of DayBright PLUS, Kevin Marshall, Company Director at TWM explained, ‘Traditionally, internally illuminated zebra crossing poles offer little or no conspicuous value as they are only truly effective during the hours of darkness, with daytime visibility being virtually non-existent. However, thanks to the DayBright PLUS LED beacon and LED illuminated white bands, exceptional enhancement to the visibility of the crossing can now be provided.’
‘We launched this LED zebra crossing beacon as a testament to our passion for developing equipment that brings enhanced road safety to both drivers and pedestrians,’ added Marshall.
