Maintaining accurate records of traffic signal maintenance is essential for municipalities to ensure public safety, optimize traffic flow, and comply with regulatory standards.
Proper documentation helps track routine inspections, repairs, and upgrades, allowing for timely interventions that prevent malfunctions and reduce the risk of accidents.
These records also support budgeting and resource allocation by identifying recurring issues and planning long-term infrastructure improvements. Additionally, maintenance logs provide
legal protection in case of disputes or accidents, demonstrating due diligence in keeping traffic control systems operational and efficient.
The Roadwurx asset management platform allows you to keep detailed information about your traffic signals. You can name up to three intersecting roads the signal controls, the make and model of the signal controller, the type of bulbs used in the signal heads (LED or incandescent), the number of heads at the intersection, the type of vehicle detection in use, the installation date, as well as any pertinent notes you feel are necessary.
As you know, each time any type of malfunction is reported on a traffic signal, you need to keep a record of the issue as well as what type of maintenance was performed to remedy the issue. Roadwurx provides a simple form allowing you to quickly and easily make a record of the fault and the resulting repair. This allows you to keep the full maintenance history of your signals. We suggest you maintain records of issues as simple as a dead bulb being replaced as wellany equipment changes or upgrades made at the controlled intersection.
