About

The IGS® Bollard is a solar powered internally illuminated temporary traffic management device. Designed to work both day and night. The IGS® Bollard is the first Active temporary safety bollard. Requiring no external influence (Vehicle lights) to activate.

The IGS® Bollard is designed to offer better visibility for hazards, roadworks, or can be used anywhere a T-Top bollard is currently used. The IGS® Bollard will also work in conjunction with any existing temporary traffic management devices.

Sustainability Outcomes

The IGS® Bollard has a number of sustainability benefits. Reduced light spill due to reduced white light intensity from lighting towers. Human receivers are less impacted, and the project is less likely to receive complaints as a result.

The IGS® work off of solar power and therefore eliminate the need for a generator. This reduces noise pollution from generators constantly running overnight and therefore minimises noise impacts on adjacent receivers. Improved safety for plant operators during nighttime works. Operators can easily identify construction zones and hazards via the illumination from a distance, which allows operators the time and clarity in decision making, stopping and turning.

This will result in a likely reduction in safety incidents involving plant and operators as poor visibility due to inadequate lighting and suitable delineation is a leading cause incidents on sites.

A large saving on light tower rental/ purchase as well as associated fuel costs. The annual savings when comparing 1 light tower against 10 solar bollards can be calculated easily on any project.

Reduced light spill due to reduced white light intensity from lighting towers. Ecological receivers’ behavioural patterns are impacted to a lesser extent.

Reduced fuel consumption as lighting towers are no longer required for haul road lighting, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

Applicable Credits

IS v1.2 Dis-2 , Dis-3 , Dis-4 , Dis-5 , Ene-2 , Inn-1
IS v2.1 Ene-2 , Env-2 , Env-3 , Env-4 , Env-5 , Inn-1
Dis-2 (ISv1.2) The use of a powerful solar panel, coupled to a state-of-the-art battery produces zero noise both day and night as generators will not be running over night. This benefits all adjacent receivers.
Dis-4 (ISv1.2) Reduced fuel consumption as lighting plant are no longer required for Haul roads and non-worked hazardous work areas. This reduces adverse impacts to local air quality' during the construction.
Dis-5 (ISv1.2) Reduced light spill due to reduced white light intensity from lighting towers. Human and ecological receivers are less likely to be impacted which may cause complaints and behavioural changes in animals.
Ene-2 (ISv1.2) The use of a state-of-the-art battery connected to a powerful solar panel which produces zero emissions.
Inn-1 (ISv1.2) Contributes to Innovation Challenge-8: Sustainable Suppliers and ISupply
Dis-3 (ISv1.2) The use of solar energy to generate the illumination causes no vibration in comparison to a generator for a lighting plant.
Ene-2 (ISv2.1) IGS® Bollard uses a powerful solar panel in combination with a state-of-the-art battery to illuminate bollards to signify different hazards and changes in road conditions.
Inn-1 (ISv2.1) Contributes to Innovation Challenge-4: Sustainable Suppliers and ISupply
Env-2 (ISv2.1) The use of a powerful solar panel, coupled to a state-of-the-art battery produces zero noise both day and night as generators will not be running over night. This benefits all adjacent receivers.
Env-3 (ISv2.1) The use of solar energy to generate the illumination causes no vibration in comparison to a generator for a lighting plant.
Env-4 (ISv2.1) Reduced fuel consumption as lighting plant are no longer required for Haul roads and non-worked hazardous work areas. This reduces adverse impacts to local air quality' during the construction.
Env-5 (ISv2.1) Reduced light spill due to reduced white light intensity from lighting towers. Human and ecological receivers are less likely to be impacted which may cause complaints and behavioural changes in animals.
