Pedestrian safety, a growing concern in cities.
Lighting in the field of road safety is synonymous with guaranteed performance, and this implies quality products. This is a project we are proud to be a part of, collaborating with a company like CARANDINI, with whom we share our values.
Pedestrian safety, a growing concern in cities.
In urban mobility, pedestrian crossings remain one of the highest-risk points due to the direct interaction between vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Road accident data in Europe confirms that pedestrians continue to be a particularly vulnerable group, especially in urban environments and at night. Despite advances in infrastructure and road safety, many fatal accidents occur in situations of insufficient visibility, where adequate lighting can be crucial.
Veka S PP
The best solution for pedestrian crossing safety. The Veka S PP luminaire blends seamlessly into the road environment, providing lighting designed to capture the driver's attention.
It significantly improves the pedestrian's horizontal and vertical field of vision, enhancing safety at crosswalks. It can also incorporate a flashing amber or blue light to alert vehicles to its presence.
It also offers the option of integrating a motion sensor, capable of operating independently or connected to the Controlux Sense control system.
-Crosswalks, Intersections, School Zones, Vulnerable Mobility Areas.
The Veka S PP incorporates optics specifically designed for crosswalks, aimed at maximizing pedestrian visibility and improving driver detection. It directs the light beam in the opposite direction of vehicle travel, generating a high level of vertical illumination on the pedestrian.
+ 4,700 pedestrians die each year in road accidents in the European Union.
1 in 5 traffic fatalities in the EU is a pedestrian.
