Signs,Traffic Signals & Boring for Texas
Road Signs & Traffic Signals – Vital for Public Safety
Texas city, county and state agencies use signs and traffic signals to manage vehicle, bicycle and pedestrian traffic on urban and rural roadways. Texans are always on the go, and the way they get there changes over time. That means the signals they need to travel safely often need to be reevaluated and updated. We base signs and traffic signals on
- Traffic patterns
- Traffic volume
- Average speeds
Without adequate signs and signals, traffic would create total chaos. Striping Technology helps improve safety by putting the right signs and signals in all the right places.
Road Signs
Road signs communicate the rules unique to specific highways, toll roads, and private roads available for public use. They post regulations, offer warnings and provide guidance for drivers through words, symbols, arrows, high contrast colors and other means. Requirements and standards for road signs vary, but our experts know requirements for freeways, expressways, conventional roads, special purpose roads and more.
Traffic Signals
Traditional stoplights aren’t the only type of device that grabs attention and controls traffic flow. Striping Technology, L.P. also provides pedestrian signals that assign right-of-way to pedestrians in times of crossing, special signals or flashing beacons that direct traffic to proceed with caution and other traffic signals as needed.

Choosing Traffic Signs & Traffic Signals
Basic principles cover design and use of signs and traffic signals. To yield the desired results, each device should:
- Fulfill a need
- Grab driver and pedestrian attention
- Communicate meaning as clearly and simply as possible
- Draw respect from drivers
- Allow enough advance warning for drivers to take the desired action
That means uniformity is important. Each device should have a universally recognizable size, shape, color, contrast and simplicity of message. Placement and positioning are equally important. Striping Technology, L.P. can help with all of the above.
