Abstract:

During the fall of 2003, the Maine Department of Transportation tested a radar-activated speed warning

sign at two different locations in different towns near elementary schools. The sign was manufactured by

3M and was loaned to MaineDOT for testing purposes.

The sign display consisted of two parts; an LED

speed display which was controlled by an on-board

radar unit and controller cabinet; and a static sign

with “Your Speed” printed on it. Existing traffic

signs at these locations consisted of standard school

zone signs as well as yellow beacons programmed to

flash during morning and afternoon hours when

school buses and pedestrians are present. The posted

speed is 35 mph during regular hours when children

are not arriving or departing school.
