Message Boards Do Help

Traffic control rentals in Denver are our specialty. Rocky Mountain Signing Company can take care of all your traffic control rental needs. We will design the type of work zone / street closure you will need and then supply state of the art well maintained equipment. Finally we will schedule certified and experienced personnel to install the devices needed to insure you have a safe, complete work zone in a timely manner.
Making sure the traveling public moves through your work zone safely is very important. Having an approved traffic control plan in place prior to starting the work will save time and money. If your work zone is not sending a clear message as to what the traveling public is to do, your job site could be shut down. A work zone that is easy to travel through decreases traffic back-up and accidents.
By renting message boards for your work zone, a message is sent to drivers prior to entering your work zone. You can advise them of detours, flaggers ahead or the need to be prepared to stop. A message board can also be programed to flash graphics to aid motorists to better understand your message.
Attenuator trucks are the safest way to set and pick up a lane closure. All of Rocky Mountain Signings attenuator trucks include 26,000 GVW trucks. None of the attenuator trucks at Rocky Mountain Signing are trailer mounted units. When an attenuator is struck, the kinetic energy can move a 26,000 GVW attenuator truck upwards of 150+ feet. If you need an attenuator truck to rent, you may want to rethink using a trailer mounted unit. Some trailer mounted attenuators attached to trucks have a GVW rating as low as 10,000 pounds. Although this may meet some manufacturer’s specifications, any truck under 20,000 GVW is simply not safe enough for Rocky Mountain Signing’s clients.
Rocky Mountain Signing can also supply your concrete barrier needs. Our concrete barrier is CDOT approved for temporary use and is available in 10 foot sections. The concrete barrier may be picked up at our office in Parker or we can deliver it to your job site. Concrete barrier is the best way to separate head-on traffic, as well as, protect the traveling public form open excavation, and heavy equipment.
