faveo battery backup and IoT management for Lancaster

Brand Narrative
October 2, 2023
The Town of Lancaster Partners with Viridi to Upgrade Traffic Signals with faveo ITS Cabinet

The FIRST municipality in North America to convert its traffic signals to battery backup and IoT management.

The Town of Lancaster, located in New York, is making history as the first municipality in North America to convert its traffic signals to battery backup and IoT management. This groundbreaking program ensures that eight of Lancaster’s busiest intersections maintain a resilient and uninterrupted power supply, even during outages.

The implementation of the faveo ITS Cabinet backup systems has been a significant milestone for the town. Under the supervision of the town highway superintendent, these systems were securely installed and activated at 8 critical intersections throughout Lancaster. By deploying this advanced technology, the town can maintain traffic flow during power outages, effectively mitigating safety risks at impacted intersections.

“The advantage of deploying this type of technology is to maintain traffic flow during power outages while mitigating safety risks at impacted intersections.”—Ron Ruffino, Town Supervisor

This forward-thinking approach by the Town of Lancaster demonstrates its commitment to enhancing the safety and efficiency of its transportation infrastructure.

faveo ITS Cabinet: Remote Monitoring and Full Telematics

In addition to the battery backup and IoT management systems, the Town of Lancaster has also implemented ViSTA remote monitoring and full telematics capabilities for its upgraded traffic signals. This innovative feature allows for real-time data sharing and alerts, enabling the town’s transportation department to closely monitor the performance of the traffic signal infrastructure.
