In the last week of May, Frazier Signal Technologies was finalizing the light pole installation on Broadway for the I-95 Bangor project.
Working together, Brad Perry from the bucket truck secures the line while Megan Rich relocates one of the poles from its old base to the newly constructed one.
Great job, team!
The results speak for themselves! Last week’s project in Portland, Maine showcased a swift and successful job completed in a picturesque setting.
“The new school zone flashers are in an(d) operating at the Center of Excellence on Andover Road in Portland. The signals look nice and the crew was polite, safe, and professional during the installation. Thank You!”
Our sincere thanks to you for giving Frazier Signal Technologies the opportunity to contribute to this project.
There is so much to talk about regarding FST’s development. We are moving our shop to a larger space, training is wrapping up, and the busy season is underway!
This week was marked by completing ongoing projects, addressing maintenance issues, and preparing for new endeavors.
In Medway, the temporary traffic control system was activated for the 157 Bridge restoration project, reducing bridge traffic to a single lane for the next few months. Routine maintenance on traffic signals was conducted in Newport, Palmyra, Brewer, and Hermon.

The Town of Lincoln has contracted Frazier Signals Technologies for a $200,000.00 rehabilitation project on a problematic traffic system at the River Road and West Broadway intersection. More project details will be provided as Lincoln pursues an insurance claim related to the vehicle accident that impacted the system.
Today Frazier Signal Technologies finished the third and final Roadway Weather Information Station (RWIS) in Monson Maine at the entrance to the 100 Mile Wilderness trail. The 100-mile wilderness trail is the northernmost section of the 2,179-mile-long Appalachian Trail running from Monson to the Abol Bridge at the base of Mount Katahdin.
The RWIS projects all involve roadwork which requires proper traffic planning, presentation, and communication so employees who work in the roadway can focus on their tasks while others focus on protecting the work area.
Implementing a lane closure (on a corner nevertheless) required three flaggers to control traffic flow, 42 traffic cones to create a 600ft taper, and a 150ft work zone which was supplemented by a 7,000lb RAM 3500 Tradesman protection barrier for employees. Work Zone Ahead, One Lane Road Ahead, and Flagger Ahead signs needed to be placed 1,500ft – 1,000ft and 500ft in advance of the site.
To work in the roadway you need to have comprehensive knowledge of traffic control procedures. It can be a time-consuming process however it is always time well spent. Thank you Lynn for explaining the layout so that we could do it right.
Frazier Signal Technologies moved three power service feeds, facilitating the rerouting of utilities to create space for New England Infrastructure. This enables the installation of a temporary bridge for I-95 traffic in Bangor.
The Broadway Bridge project is a great chance for our small business to showcase its skills. Master Electricians Andrew Carter and Brad Perry, aided by Versant, efficiently handled the transition at the traffic cabinets.
They’re specifically wired to light up only when the pedestrian crossing “walk” is active. What a great way to keep kids safe walking to school! Especially in areas like this one where vehicles running red lights are an issue.
