Rio Tinto approached us seeking a solution to improve pedestrian safety at their Tom Price mine site in Western Australia. The client required a solar pedestrian crossing system that was highly visible, easy to operate, and suitable for the harsh mining environment.
Our team assessed the site conditions and determined that a pedestrian warning, illuminated signage would provide the most effective safety reinforcement. The solution needed to be relocatable to adapt to the constantly changing mine site layout. Key features of the Solar Pedestrian Crossing System:
We supplied and installed a pair of push-button activated LED Enhanced Pedestrian Road Signs, securely mounted on SLD Relocatable Water-Filled Bases. This system provides clear visual warning, significantly improving on-site safety.
The sign provides a clear, illuminated visual warning to approaching drivers whenever pedestrians activate the push button, reducing the risk of collisions in high-traffic areas.
Yes, the signs are mounted on relocatable water-filled bases, allowing them to be safely moved as the mine layout evolves. Steel relocatable bases are available for purchase.
Definitely, the LED signs are built with rugged, weatherproof, and impact-resistant materials, designed to withstand dust, vibration, and extreme temperatures.
We’re proud to deliver solutions that make a real difference. Don’t just take our word for it, hear directly from clients who have experienced the reliability, performance, and impact of our products and services. Their stories speak for themselves.
Excellent Service. There was an issue with a product (solar road markers) and they replaced the items straightaway. Couldn’t have asked for better service. Thank you. – Pauline Abela
Ethan and the team at SLD were extremely patient and helpful with my order of 7 large solar speed signs on 190kg [Steel] bases, being sent to Victoria for installation across my workplace, which is a public use space. Ethan answered many technical questions with ease, and assisted with troubleshooting, the shipping and delivery, assembly and changing the radar speed. Their accounts team adhered to my companies strict policies, and the project went live yesterday. Would recommend the company and products. Thank you Ethan, Scott and team. – Lisa Pettifer, Project Manager
We were receiving multiple reports of speeding in the village from our residents. After investigating the problem areas and delivering the solution, I can confidently say that the Solar Speed Signs have reduced the incidents of speeding in the village. – Deon Moran, Village Manager
We live in a gated lifestyle resort of 375 residents, we have narrow roadways and no foot paths so it’s a shared pedestrian/vehicle environment. The speed limit within the resort is 10kph, which despite numerous conventional signs was regularly exceeded by visitors and residents alike. We purchased the portable flashing sign from SLR and the change in driver behavior was apparent within a very short period. This is a cost-effective deterrent, and very easy to use and deploy, we are considering purchasing another. – Peter Lake
