Safer Streets

Lafrentz Skid Resistant Material (SRM) is being utilized in new and innovative solutions to provide safer streets.

Pedestrian Safety – Visual Enhancements

Active transportation initiatives have encouraged many people to take to the streets. Studies show that the safer the environment the more likely that it will be used. Many jurisdictions have sought ways to enhance their current crosswalks to be noticed by the vehicle driver. In addition to the standard crosswalks innovations like colors and advanced markings have brought driver attention to the crosswalks. These additions have seen dramatic decreases in incidents and promote user confidence. Lafrentz has proven products for high visibility colors, advanced warnings and even speed badges.
