Explore Our Services

At Wright, we take pride in providing a wide range of solutions that cater to every aspect of your project’s safety needs. Our commitment to quality and innovation is evident in our key offerings, designed to simplify operations and keep everyone—workers, drivers, and pedestrians—safe.

Traffic Control Management

We train our flaggers rigorously to navigate the complexities of active work zones. They use state-of-the-art tools and strict safety protocols to ensure vehicles pass through your site without confusion or unnecessary bottlenecks. With our specialized teams on the ground, you can focus on completing your project on time while leaving the logistical challenges of onsite safety to us.

Equipment Rental

Wright makes it easy to access the equipment when you need it. Our extensive inventory of advanced traffic control equipment is available for rent, ensuring reliability and performance on every job. From signage, barricades, cones, and message boards to sophisticated automated systems, our equipment supports projects of every scale and complexity.

MOT/TCP Design

Proper planning is the cornerstone of any successful project. Before we set foot on your job site, we map out a Maintenance of Traffic (MOT) or Traffic Control Plan (TCP) tailored to your project’s unique specifications. Our approach is rooted in site evaluations and utilizing advanced modeling tools to forecast traffic patterns and optimize flow. We ensure that every step of your project aligns with best practices. The result: Fewer disruptions and a safer environment for everyone involved.

Guardian SmartFlagger

Innovation is at the heart of everything we do, so we’re proud to offer a bright work zone using the Guardian SmartFlagger as part of our traffic control and safety services. This device is not just another traffic sign—it’s a technological leap that improves worker and driver safety. Using this technology, our flaggers can control the device from a safe distance, reducing their exposure to oncoming traffic. Setup is fast and efficient, making it ideal for time-sensitive operations.

Wright’s Modern Approach to Traffic Control

With nearly half a century of hands-on experience, Wright has continually refined its methods to align with evolving industry standards. But it’s not just about tradition; it’s also about adopting the latest technology and best practices to stay ahead of the curve.

Safety First

Safety isn’t just a priority for us—it’s the core principle guiding every action we take. Our crews undergo comprehensive training to prepare them for the unpredictable nature of roadside work. We have protocols to handle any situation, from severe weather conditions to sudden traffic surges. We strive to keep all our employees, contractors, and road users safe at every project phase.

Customized Traffic Management Services

No two work zones are the same. Some projects may require partial road closures during off-peak hours, while others might demand full detours or specialized pedestrian routes. We understand these nuances and ensure clients receive a customized plan tailored to their needs. From road width to traffic volume, we can effectively minimize bottlenecks while maintaining high safety standards.

Compliance with Regulations

Navigating the regulatory landscape can be challenging, but Wright has you covered. Local laws, federal guidelines, and industry standards constantly change, but we keep abreast of every update. Our experts ensure that each traffic control plan fully complies with the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) and any state-specific requirements. This level of diligence helps you avoid costly fines and delays, paving the way for smoother project execution.

Advanced Traffic Control Equipment

In a rapidly growing digital world, we stay at the forefront by investing in cutting-edge traffic control technology. Beyond the Guardian SmartFlagger, our arsenal includes smart message boards, advanced sensor networks, and sophisticated data analytics platforms. These tools enable us to gather real-time information, adapt to changing road conditions, and optimize traffic flow dynamically.
