Overview
Evo1 is our premier portable traffic signal, designed for professional traffic management companies who require the very best in signalling technology.
It is designed for temporary traffic management and can be used on a wide range of roadworks, from simple shuttle working through to the most complex sites.
Evo1 combines reliable temporary traffic signals with advanced control and monitoring technology, helping traffic management teams keep sites running safely and efficiently.
What can Evo1 be used for?
Evo1 can be used for:
- Standard two-way shuttle working
- Multi-way temporary traffic signal sites
- Temporary pedestrian crossings
- More complex traffic management schemes inc. stage based schemes
- Sites that need remote monitoring and support
The exact set-up required will depend on the road layout and the needs of the scheme.
What are the main benefits of Evo1?
Easy to deploy
Evo1 is designed for use by traffic management teams and can be quickly deployed and set up on site.
Long battery life
Efficient power use helps reduce the number of battery changes needed while signals are deployed.
Connected technology
When fitted with the appropriate tracking and communications equipment, Evo1 assets can be viewed through TMdesk.
This can help your team check battery levels, see where equipment is located and manage signals across your fleet.
Suitable for simple and complex sites
Evo1 can support everyday temporary traffic management as well as more advanced schemes designed and supported by the TGS Professional Services team.
Using Evo1 with TMdesk
If your Evo1 signals are connected to TMdesk, you can use TMdesk to help manage your equipment.
For example, you can:
- Check signal battery levels
- See signals grouped into sites
- Find signals on the map
- Check which equipment is at your depot
- See which signals are charged and ready for another job
Checking TMdesk regularly can help you spot equipment that needs attention before it causes a problem.
Need help with a complex site?
For larger or more complex schemes, TGS Professional Services can provide additional support.
This can include signal design, deployment, commissioning and ongoing monitoring, depending on the needs of the scheme.
