It’s crucial that anyone performing road maintenance or construction have an efficient and effective method of communicating with drivers. By directing drivers to where they need to go, you can help prevent accidents and keep traffic flowing. That is where arrowboards come in. For more on these helpful road signs and what kinds of features they have to offer, read this guide to arrowboard types from Alltrade Equipment Corp.

Standard Arrowboard

Arrowboards are available in skid-mounted, vehicle-mounted, and trailer-mounted models. These helpful signs circumvent language barriers by pointing drivers directly to where they should go to avoid the hazard. Most modern arrowboards are solar-powered, with a battery backup for cloudy days. LED lighting is also standard, allowing them to be seen from over 1 kilometer away.

Silent Messenger

While the simplicity of your standard arrowboard is its greatest advantage, sometimes you need to send a more complex message. For those times, an LED message board works wonders. These message boards are sometimes called silent messengers due to their ability to convey instructions without sound. Though features obviously vary from model to model, most modern silent messengers feature solar power with a battery backup, as well as being fully programmable with a variety of different words and graphics.
