Traffic Control Solutions for Road & Highways Contractors
Site 20/20 provides traffic management solutions for road construction projects, helping contractors improve safety, reduce delays, and manage work zones with confidence.
The Need for Smarter Traffic Control in Road Construction
- Traffic management for road construction sites is becoming increasingly complex.
- Flaggers face safety risks due to limited visibility.
- Emergency roadwork and pothole patching require rapid deployment.
- Manual coordination leads to delays and errors.
- Compliance tracking lacks centralized control.
Automated Traffic Control Solutions for Road Projects
Site 20/20 offers smart systems designed to meet the unique demands of road construction. Each product is built to solve the real challenges contractors face on highway and urban road projects.
Guardian SmartFlagger
A remote-operated flagging system that improves safety and control at active road zones. It reduces the need for workers to stand directly in traffic paths.
Guardian Smart Sign
A GPS-enabled sign system that provides real-time visibility into setup accuracy across multiple road sites. It helps teams maintain compliance from anywhere.
Guardian Cone Pro
Detects approaching vehicles and speed changes in real time, giving crews early warnings in high-speed environments like highways and rural roads.
ROADS (Remote Onboarding and Dispatch System)
Coordinate crews, equipment, and schedules across multiple road projects. Keep daily operations aligned from dispatch to completion.
Partner Portal
A live monitoring system that tracks all Guardian equipment across road projects. It improves control, visibility, and asset management.
Traffic Control Applications for Road Construction and Work Zones
Our smart traffic control solutions for roadwork support projects of all sizes with flexible, scalable systems:
Highway Lane Closures
Keeping lane closures safe starts with better traffic control. Guardian SmartFlagger supports remote operation and helps keep workers out of harm’s way.
Bridge Repair Projects
Bridge repair projects often have limited space and restricted visibility. Guardian Cone Pro provides real-time vehicle alerts, helping crews stay aware of approaching traffic.
Road Resurfacing Work
Traffic control layouts often change as resurfacing work progresses. Guardian Smart Sign tracks temporary signs and alerts crews if a sign is moved or goes missing.
Urban Intersection Upgrades
Busy intersections require efficient coordination. ROADS helps dispatch crews, track equipment, and manage traffic control operations from one platform.
How Road Crews Operate on Construction Sites
Site 20/20 strengthens safety with smart work zone technology for highways and road contractors. Here’s how it works:
Dispatch and Mobilization
A dispatcher uses ROADS to assign personnel, confirm all required equipment is loaded, and log job-specific details for each active lane closure or work zone. Workers confirm assignments by text, and the Scoreboard displays real-time job status, such as Unfilled, Scheduled, No Response, and Confirmed.
Work Zone Setup
On arrival, a crew member deploys the SmartFlagger at the approach zone and positions signs and cones according to the traffic control plan. Guardian Smart Sign GPS tracking confirms correct placement across the full work zone, while Cone Pro alerts road crews to approaching vehicles from up to 500 feet away.
Live Operations
As work progresses, lane closures shift and traffic patterns change. One operator manages SmartFlagger units from a tablet at a safe stand-off position, with live 360-degree camera feeds from each unit. When vehicles approach too quickly, Cone Pro provides real-time alerts, giving crews time to react and adjust.
Post-Job Reporting and Invoicing
Equipment is logged, lane closures are cleared, and crews submit time and job data through ROADS. Office teams use the same data for reporting, compliance, and payroll. This eliminates manual re-entry, removes the need for separate timesheets, and avoids follow-up calls to verify hours, equipment, and job details.

Frequently Asked Questions
How fast can traffic control be deployed for road construction projects?
Most automated traffic control systems are designed for quick deployment, helping crews establish safe work zones with minimal delays. Site 20/20’s Guardian SmartFlagger is lightweight and easy to deploy, allowing operators to get traffic control in place quickly.
Can one operator manage multiple lane closures at the same time?
Yes. With Guardian SmartFlagger, a single operator can remotely manage up to four units, improving efficiency while staying in a safer location.
How does traffic control adapt to moving work zones like paving or striping?
Traffic control systems should be easy to relocate as work progresses while maintaining safe, compliant setups. Guardian Smart Sign helps by tracking temporary signs and alerting crews if signage is moved or misplaced during the project.
What types of road projects benefit most from automated traffic control?
Highway resurfacing, bridge repairs, utility work, road widening, and urban reconstruction projects can all benefit from connected traffic control technologies. Site 20/20 offers a range of solutions that help improve safety, visibility, and operational efficiency across these projects.
When is automated flagging better than manual flaggers in road work?
Automated flagging is particularly valuable on high-speed roads or in high-risk environments where reducing worker exposure is a priority. Guardian SmartFlagger allows operators to control traffic remotely, helping keep workers out of live traffic while maintaining consistent traffic flow.
