INSTABOOM Go, our Stop/Go solar-powered traffic management system, has been a huge success in Ireland, with units quite literally flying off the shelves. The biggest advocate so far has been Road Control Services, who trialled four units across various traffic management sites in Dublin. Following the trial, they were so impressed that they’ve now hired an additional four units.
INSTABOOM Go has helped Road Control Services save time, ease staffing pressures and significantly improve safety and efficiency across multiple traffic management projects.
Dumitru Hlusca, Director of Road Control Services Limited, said:
“They worked really well. They’re reliable, easy to operate and a good fit for the sites we trialled them on.”
When asked whether INSTABOOM Go would be used on future projects, he added:
“Yes, absolutely. They made traffic management smoother and safer and we’d be more than happy to use them again.”
Dublin Port handles about two-thirds of all Ireland’s port traffic and is the country’s largest freight and passenger port. It has faced long-standing challenges in managing port traffic, with a major issue arising during the delivery of new cars, when hundreds of vehicles must cross a main artery leading out of the port, causing significant congestion.
The problem has only grown with the increasing number of cruise ships now calling into Dublin. To address this, the port is expanding to include a designated cruise area which has only strengthened the need for a solution. However, the problem of existing traffic and congestion needed to be addressed.
That’s where INSTABOOM stepped in, fully securing the access road in minutes. INSTABOOM is a mobile solar-hybrid, remote operated barrier that can be deployed by one person. Robust and durable by design it increases safety by controlling worksite access.
