SolarLight™
SolarLight™
With only one battery exchange required per year, SolarLight™ represents a leap forward in solar-powered temporary traffic signal technology. This groundbreaking product features dual-aspect solar panels drastically reducing the need for battery exchanges making it the perfect solution for long-term traffic management projects.
SolarLight™ in a nutshell
Dual-Aspect Solar Panels
SolarLight™ utilities a two-panel design with solar panels made from monocrystalline silicon to harness solar energy adding which adds minimal weight but significant performance enhancements.
Long-Term Deployment
SolarLight™ has been actively deployed on schemes across the UK for over 12 months without the need to conduct battery exchanges and low maintenance that’s to its efficient solar system.
Improved Traffic Flow
Integrated SolarLight™ with Multiphase ADS and UTMC to enhance the efficiency of traffic management, reduce congestion and improve the overall experience for road users.
Pedestrian Signal Capabilities
Use SolarLight™ as pedestrian signals (or part of a double-head setup) with push buttons that replicate permanent signals to allow for pedestrian phases on sites.
Stable and Robust Design
Four stability legs ensure SolarLight™ signals remain grounded and level, even on uneven terrains, making it ideal for construction sites or rural projects.
Site Flexibility
SolarLight™ can be used at junctions or as stand-alone, with up to 24 signals and 5 phases being possible, ensuring any site-specific layouts can be met.
Haul Route PLUS®
SolarLight™ signals play a vital role in the operation of Haul Route PLUS®, our award-winning plant crossing solution, due to their low maintenance, long running time and height perception.

Key Features
SolarLight™ drastically reduces the need for frequent battery replacements thanks to its dual-aspect solar panel design. In turn, this reduces the carbon footprint of your project as the emissions associated with battery exchanges (such as vehicle travel to and from depots) is vastly reduced.
As maintenance is low, SRL recommend that panels are cleaned when conducting site visits, removing leaves and dirt, when possible to improve the efficiency of the solar panels.
As SolarLight™ reduces battery exchanges and maintenance dramatically, workers are able to spend less time working in live lanes swapping out batteries or doing checks, so they are less exposed to roadside hazards improving worker safety and wellbeing. This can be even more beneficial on busy or high-speed roads where typical operatives would be working next to lanes where vehicles are travelling at excessive speeds.
Suitable for long-term projects, the durable design of SolarLight™ ensures consistent performance and can be easily deployed regardless of the environment. Use SolarLight™ for urban roadworks to provide the look and feel of permanent traffic signals or in remote areas to reduce your operational costs, where travel times and battery exchanges can be costly and inefficient. Even on construction sites, the four stability legs ensure SolarLight™ is stable, secure and safe without the need for constant maintenance.
Technical Capabilities
1x Battery Exchange / Year
With SolarLight™, the dual-aspect solar panel provides year-round operations without interruption.
Non-Directional Solar
SolarLight™ signals can be installed in any direction and do not need adjusting towards the sunlight, with no loss of performance.
Up to 36 heads
Place up to 18 live heads + 18 secondary heads on site with SolarLight™.
Max Time Sets
Utilise up to 6 max time sets which allows you to set red/green times to change based on a timetable set by the user.
Enhanced Security
SolarLight™ units come with four integrated bullet locks as standard, providing maximum security of batteries.
Replicating Permanent Signals
Once fully deployed, SolarLight™ signals replicates the appearance of permanent signals for a more commanding semi-permanent appearance.
Stability Legs
Adjustable stability legs allow SolarLight™ to be placed on any terrain without the risk of falling over.
Specialist Installation
Our specialist projects team will manage the whole installation process of SolarLight™ to your site including delivery, positioning, setup and testing.
SRL Product Compatibility
SolarLight™ works seamlessly with SRL’s existing Pedestrian, Multiphase ADS, UTMC, VMS and automatic security barriers giving full site flexibility.
Site Specific Setups
Place traffic and pedestrian signals on the same post, allowing sites to replicate permanent signal layouts or to reduce the amount of SolarLight™ signals required onsite.
Safety Features
As well as a safety class rating of A, SolarLight™ signals have built-in ‘revert to all red’ in the rare instances of failure.
SRL Telematics
Integrate SRL Telematics into your SolarLight™ signals to access live monitoring data such as battery voltage, solar yield and signal status.
Upgrade your long-term traffic management projects to SolarLight™ to deliver a solution that combines reliability with sustainability with little-to-no maintenance.
