Traffic Systems

The Traffic Systems group is devoted to the design and supply of sign support products. These products are sold to federal, state, regional and local Traffic Systems Sign.jpgauthorities as well as to those serving those markets.

Products sold by the Traffic Systems group include round posts and square perforated posts, breakaway slip base systems, and the accessories related to the sign support systems.

Designed to save lives, save time and save money, the focus of the Traffic Systems Group is to provide products designed to break away or yield upon impact meeting the requirements of clear zone safety.

The POZ-LOC Slipbase System is used in several states along highways to support signs of various sizes, and is a system designed to release the post on impact from any direction and rotate clear of the impact with minimal change in vehicle velocity. Our socket systems and square perforated tubing products are designed to meet the requirements of state and local authorities. We also have installation tools and hardware available to simplify the use of our products.

Northwest Pipe products are designed to be NCHRP Report 350 compliant and to meet or exceed AASHTO approval requirements. With our national sales force and distribution network and a substantial inventory of our products available to meet your needs, we believe we are the best choice for quality products and service to meet the needs of the sign supports marketplace.
