A common problem found on military bases today is crowding. This is not thanks to a higher than normal number of folk in military service, but base closures that have forced more staff onto fewer bases. A smaller number of bases have to support more housing and services than ever seen before. So more folk work and live, with their youngsters attending school, in a smaller area than most military personnel had to address in the past.
The govt. knows that this crowding is certain to cause traffic problems now and in days to come courtesy of a study requested by Congress. The National Research Council's Transportation Research Board concluded that traffic problems were inevitable. Clearing up these issues can be difficult for many bases, where funds and staff are stretched thin. Luckily, TraffiCalm Systems and other firms produce signs that can help with military base traffic calming easily and cost-effectively.
By installing these traffic signs, army management can keep staff free to handle other important issues and manage the traffic issues with a minimum of trouble. The signs can be set to collect information first thanks to the custom software that correlates the traffic info to identify problem areas and times. Lightweight signs can be used to gather info in a selection of places to guarantee the best placement for the signs.
Signs can be purchased with solar and/or battery options, so permanent installation in one place isn't obligatory if not desired. This grants the signs to be utilized for a variety of purposes and in several places, making them even more economical.
Variable speed limit signs can be changed on an improvised basis thanks to the wireless Bluetooth connectivity. Choose signs with big displays, vandal-resistant casing and a great warranty. All of these features make it straightforward to manage traffic with the minimal of personnel and man-hours.
