Flashing Amber School Warning Sign | Ireland Intelligent Road Safety System

The Flashing Amber School Warning Sign is a highly visible, programmable safety sign system designed to protect children near schools by alerting drivers with twin amber flashing beacons. Available in both solar-powered and mains-powered options, this system integrates a standard W 141 school warning sign with ultra-bright LED beacons, automatically activated during school opening and closing times.

Fully compliant with TSM Chapter 4 and TS4 specifications, this sign system is trusted by Irish local authorities, school boards, and safety contractors nationwide to improve driver awareness and reduce speeding near school zones.

🚦 What It Does & Why It Matters

This sign warns approaching drivers of the presence of a school and activates bright flashing amber lights at pre-programmed times, typically before and after school hours. The system uses a digital timer that allows for easy programming of daily, weekly, and yearly schedules — ensuring the lights only activate when they’re truly needed.

Whether powered by solar energy for remote, off-grid sites or mains power for urban deployments, the system helps improve road safety, especially in areas with poor visibility or busy crossings.
