Traffic equipment standards
Traffic equipment includes a wide range of products including signs, signs, lines, traffic lights, barriers, and intelligent traffic management systems. Each of these equipment must meet certain standards to ensure the efficiency and safety. These standards are usually formulated by national and international organizations and include technical requirements, resistance to different weather, visual, durability and safety. Some of the most important standards used in the world are:
National Standards
In Iran, the National Iranian Standard Organization (ISIRI) formulates and publishes the standards for traffic equipment. These standards are required for manufacturers and importers of traffic equipment.
International standards
International organizations such as ISO and CEN formulate international standards for traffic equipment used in many countries.
Materials related to materials
The raw materials used in the production of traffic equipment must comply with certain standards. For example, traffic signs should be made of durable and resistant materials.
Visual standards
Traffic equipment should be designed to be easily visible in different weather and light conditions. For example, boards must be of good color and size.
Safety -related standards
Traffic equipment should be designed to maximize the safety of drivers and pedestrians. For example, traffic barriers should be sufficiently resistant.
The consequences of utilization of adverse traffic equipment with standards
Using adverse traffic equipment with standards can have irreparable consequences, including:
Increased accidents
Inadequate and unquestionable traffic equipment can reduce the visual and safety of the roads, thereby increasing the risk of accidents.
