Making cycle and pedestrian crossings safer at intersections

Intersection avec feux tricolores, piste cyclable, passage piéton

Intersections must be given special road safety treatment. Aximum offers innovative solutions to avoid potential conflicts of use. Enhanced signage and intelligent priority management systems make it possible to make safer to use soft modes of transport but also road traffic. Our teams can offer you solutions tailored to each lane configuration, so you can design intersections and make cycle and pedestrian crossings safer.

Prioritise cycle crossings: Symphonie.Cam

Our teams develop cycle lanes and offer intelligent traffic light solutions to encourage multimodal travel and optimise traffic flows. Equipped with a discreet sensor incorporating an artificial intelligence detection solution, the Symphonie.Cam cycle traffic light detects cyclists approaching the crossing in advance. This makes it possible to control the traffic lights, stop the flow of vehicles and give priority to cyclists crossing the road. In the absence of cyclists, car traffic is not impacted, which avoids unjustified stops and starts, thus encouraging traffic flow and reducing carbon emissions.

Micro-regulated traffic lights to ensure safe passage for cyclists at traffic lights

Micro-regulated traffic lights to ensure safe passage for cyclists at traffic lights

Areas such as junctions between link roads and cycle lanes are prone to accidents. Our teams offer you innovative bike detection solutions based on artificial intelligence. How does it work? The sensor built into the traffic light detects the cyclist in the advanced stop line to adapt the operation of the traffic lights as bikes and vehicles approach. The green time is extended in the vehicle phase if there are bicycles in the ASL to allow cyclists to cross the intersection more calmly and also to give motorists time to pass.

Crossing times adapted to needs: SOFFT Piétons solution

Crossing times adapted to needs: SOFFT Piétons solution

Pedestrian crossings are an area where safety must be maximised and users must feel protected. Aximum offers the innovative SOFFT Piétons solution for:

  • Make the path of vulnerable users safer
  • Enhance pedestrian crossings by adapting the green time to pedestrian traffic
  • Improve pedestrian experience and comfort.

How does it work? 
An AI* pedestrian sensor is deployed at a pedestrian crossing at a traffic-light junction. The algorithm analyses and calculates the flow of people waiting. Depending on the density, the crossing time is adapted in real time to make it easier for pedestrians to cross. This information is also fed back to the monitoring systems for optimum management of traffic light junctions. Once the crossing is complete, traffic resumes. 
Pedestrian crossings at intersections with traffic lights are made safer byadapting crossing times according to the presence and number of pedestrians detected waiting. By taking real needs into account, the system encourages soft modes of transport, without penalising vehicles in the absence of pedestrians, thus helping to reduce polluting emissions.

Traffic lights: improving visibility

Traffic lights: improving visibility

Our teams can offer you traffic light solutions to enhance safety in hazardous road areas, in addition to existing signage. By alerting drivers to the possible presence of pedestrians or cyclists, this equipment aims to increase vigilance when approaching dangerous points, day or night.
Reinforced Diode Signs PRD display regulatory signs on which diodes are fitted to reinforce the message. They are available in a range of sizes and shapes to meet all signage needs on different road types.
Mains- or street light powered, they are also available in solar-powered versions, offering up to 3 weeks of complete autonomy, making them easy to install in any environment. This solar-powered illuminated signage also helps conserve energy resources.
