Emergency Traffic Signal Repair in Rockport Maine

This past week, Frazier Signal Technologies responded to an emergency traffic signal repair call from the Town of Rockport after a serious incident.

A driver experienced a medical emergency, causing the vehicle to leave the roadway and strike a utility pole and several trees. The impact loosened the pole’s guy wire, allowing the utility poles to lean inward and lowering the span wire traffic signals to a height that created a hazard for passing vehicles.

Before repairs could be made, a large vehicle struck the lowered signals, breaking the lower span wire and damaging multiple signal heads.

Upon arrival, the Frazier Signal Technologies team secured and repaired the guy wire, restored proper tension to the upper span wire, and returned the traffic signals to their correct operating height. We then replaced the damaged signal heads, reattached the lower span wire, and recalibrated the camera detection system.

With all repairs completed and the intersection operating safely, we were able to return the signal to full service.

We appreciate the Town of Rockport for placing their trust in Frazier Signal Technologies during this emergency. We’re proud to provide responsive, reliable traffic signal support when communities need it most.

Troubleshooting Icy Road Warning Sign in Western Maine

This is a fun story from a quick job we completed this week in western Maine, just down the road from Sugarloaf Mountain.

We were called out to Carrabassett Valley to troubleshoot a flashing Icy Road Warning Sign that was no longer communicating with its partner sign further up the road.

One of the signs is located next to the municipal airport and receives almost no cell phone service, which made troubleshooting a bit more interesting. My assignment was to contact TAPCO support and work through the issue.

Thank goodness for the kindness of Mainers. The convenience store about 100 feet away was kind enough to share their internet password—otherwise I would have been stuck driving a half mile up the road just to get a signal to relay any infomation or findings.

It took a little time, but we were able to identify the problem with the road warning sign and get them communicating reliably again—helping keep drivers informed and safe on the road.

Emergency Traffic Signal Repairs at Frazier Signal Technologies

A shortened cold week at Frazier Signal Technologies started something like this…..

“Good morning, everyone! Just a heads-up-the traffic signals at the intersection of Route 1A (Main Rd) and Route 46 (Kidder Hill Rd) in Holden are completely out.”

And so, the work begins to address an unexpected traffic system failure.

Shortly after power was restored to the signals, our flaggers stepped in while we performed an on-the-spot repair to the traffic cabinet power system to ensure safe and efficient roadway travel. Great work team!
