Encourage walkability with safer school zones

Reduce vehicle speeds in school zones. Non-specialized school maintenance crews can add this compact, 15-watt flashing beacon to existing school speed limit signage, making installation fast and simple. With no grid connections required, the beacons reduce both installation and long-term operating costs. The battery, energy management system, and solar panel are contained in one unit, making this a self-contained solution. It’s also built to last: durable and dependable, this product comes with a 5-year warranty for peace of mind.

School zone flashing beacons fit within Safe Routes to School infrastructure funding models, complete streets plans, and state-specific grants for school zone safety improvements.

FAST FACT: A study from the Washington Traffic Safety Commission found that flashing school zone beacons can reduce speeds in school zones by 5–7 miles per hour, increasing safety and encouraging students and parents to walk and bike to school.
