At Barricade Traffic Services, safety and efficiency are at the core of everything we do. Our Temporary Traffic Signals are the ideal solution for managing traffic in road construction zones, lane closures, detours, and other temporary work zones. Designed for flexibility, visibility, and control, these portable systems work seamlessly with other traffic control tools like traffic safety cones and construction signs to keep traffic flowing safely and projects running smoothly.

Temporary traffic signals are portable, programmable signal systems designed to regulate traffic in construction and maintenance zones where traditional traffic lights may not be available or practical. These units are especially important in single-lane or alternating lane scenarios, ensuring both driver and worker safety while maintaining a steady flow of vehicles.

Unlike permanent systems, temporary traffic signals are quick to deploy, easy to move, and engineered to function reliably under the challenging conditions of active roadwork environments.

We offer top-of-the-line portable traffic signal trailers equipped with advanced technology to give you complete control over your temporary traffic flow needs.

Key Features:

• Solar-Powered Operation: Our portable traffic lights are solar-powered, allowing for long-term deployment with minimal maintenance.
• Wireless Communication: Built-in wireless communication ensures signal timing stays synced without the hassle of wires or trenching.
• Durable & Weatherproof: Built to withstand tough Canadian weather conditions and rough job site environments.
• Manual Override: For emergency situations or on-site adjustments, manual control is easily accessible.
• MTO Approved: Fully compliant with Ontario’s Ministry of Transportation standards, making them suitable for all road and infrastructure projects.

Temporary traffic signals are an essential part of modern traffic control systems. Whether you’re dealing with lane reductions, bridgework, utility repairs, or roadside construction, these signals help reduce confusion, eliminate unsafe driver behavior, and minimize the risk of accidents in work zones.

They also reduce the need for flaggers in some scenarios, which can cut labor costs and improve worker safety by removing personnel from hazardous areas.

Temporary traffic signals don’t work in isolation. To ensure a comprehensive safety solution, they should be used in conjunction with:

• Traffic Safety Cones: Ideal for lane delineation and guiding drivers through temporary detours or construction zones.
• Construction Signs: Warn drivers of upcoming changes, lane closures, or specific hazards on-site.
• Barricades: Provide physical separation between traffic and work zones to enhance safety.

When all of these tools are used together, they create a highly visible, clearly communicated traffic control system that protects both drivers and workers.

Our portable traffic lights are perfect for:

• Roadway resurfacing and paving projects
• Bridge repair or construction
• Utility work requiring lane closures
• Rural or low-traffic road construction
• Emergency road maintenance
