Introduction
Saferoads Zone 2 VMS Electronic Traffic System is a solar-powered variable message sign. There are two different
models available, Classic and Essential, with each model being available in either amber or five colour lighting
displays. The Classic model differs from the Essential model in terms of the inclusion of extra features, such as an
onboard battery charger, an onboard message manager, a spare wheel, fully sealed toolboxes, and the ability to tilt
and rotate the solar panels. These all come standard on the Classic model, and the first three are optional on the
Essential model.
The Zone 2 VMS Electronic Traffic System utilises Zone 2 software to program the messages shown on the display.
The remote access website allows the user to easily update and schedule messages from anywhere with an internet
connection.
The trailer is designed in Australia and is constructed from a heavy-duty galvanised and powder-coated frame,
ensuring durability.
Applications
Saferoads Zone 2 VMS Electronic Traffic System suits many applications, including but not limited to:
•Advertising
•Traffic control
•Lane closures
•Events
