Welcome to this week's "Tuesday Traffic Tips."

If you have had questions on placement for Accessible Pedestrian Signals, the Tuesday Traffic Tip should answer them. 

We are just one week away from the Nebraska User's group and registration is still available. Please see the User's Group link below for more information.  Registration for the Chicago User's Group next month has also begun and is located in the left column.

We hope you enjoy this week's Tuesday Traffic Tip.  Have a great week! 

Accessible Pedestrian Signals (APS) installation has been on the increase over the last couple years. Contractors have asked for visual help with regard to APS placement and orientation.  

Polara has put together a "Quick Guide to APS placement". Within the guide, you will find links to sites with more in-depth design, installation and applicable guidelines.

Sharing ideas and getting to know your peers in the industry has also proven to be a tremendous benefit.
