A Revolutionary New Tripod Design

Our RC2 Tripod traffic signal is the ideal solution when rapid deployment is needed to keep traffic flowing. With its integrated battery, adjustable legs and rugged design, the RC2 Tripod is well suited to utilities, tree surgeons and general day works. the Tripod RC2 has the same innovative technology as the RadioConnect2 but in a compact form, suitable for transport in a wide range of vehicles.

Keep traffic flowing 24/7 with AutoGreen

RadioConnect2 features AutoGreen Technology, an advanced method of Vehicle Actuation for portable traffic signals that uses artificial intelligence to optimise signal operation to best suit current traffic conditions. It is the only intelligent traffic light system to be proven in real-world scenarios, backed-up by reliable data!

AutoGreen improves traffic flow, reduces driver frustration and lessens the need for manual control or manual intervention.

ACM

Reliable Radio Comms

The radio spectrum is filling up fast, meaning portable traffic signals have to communicate with each other in an increasingly congested environment.

Our Active Channel Management technology delivers reliable radio performance for portable and temporary traffic signals operating in challenging environments.

Simplicity and Safety

There’s a reason why the RC2 Tripod is one of the most popular signals on the market. Operatives find the RC2 Tripod really easy to use with the intuitive control panel, which is placed at eye level to allow the user to see oncoming traffic when setting up. The RC2 Tripod performs best at 2-way shuttle works, with minimal set-up time thanks to AutoGreen’s dynamic green time adjustment.

Easy to Deploy

We have improved the design of our Tripod, to include a carry handle and adjustable legs for use on uneven ground. It is highly portable and designed for quick deployment, ideal for gang works and short-term jobs. It can easily fit in the back of a van or the boot of a car and can be set up by a single operative.

To protect the signal during transit we offer rugged stillage option, this is made from recycled plastic and conveniently stacks.

Ideal for short-term works

The compact design, ease-of-use and fast deployment makes the RC2 Tripod ideal for a wide range of applications:

  • Utility workers
  • Gang workers
  • Tree Surgeons
  • Emergency Response
  • General Traffic Management
  • Events
  • Potholing, tarmac and road repairs
