Enhancing road safety remains a persistent challenge for road safety professionals, necessitating the identification of simple solutions that are easy to deploy, are cost effective and yet deliver substantial road safety benefits as quickly as possible.

SolarLite Studs are designed to enhance road safety and improve driver visibility of the road ahead. These solar-powered road studs are swiftly deployable and yet provide exceptional visibility of up to 900-meters ahead, ensuring all-night, year-round performance that contributes to safer travel, even in adverse weather conditions. By reducing reliance on energy-intensive lighting systems, SolarLite Studs enhance visibility and improve road safety, while simultaneously contributing to a greener planet.

The studs significantly enhance road safety by assisting drivers in navigating road layouts, identifying upcoming junctions, and helping them to navigate around hazardous bends. This leads to a reduction in collisions and increases driver confidence.

Numerous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of SolarLite Studs in reducing nighttime collisions (in some instances by over 70%). They consistently improve visibility and enhance road safety over hundreds of miles of road in the United Kingdom every day of the year.

This well-established technology not only enhances vehicle guidance but also supports safer walking and cycling routes. SolarLite Path Studs are particularly effective in improving visibility on pedestrian and cyclist routes, providing safer travel at night while minimising light pollution and potential light disruption for nocturnal wildlife.
