Safely Around Zurich With Light From Siteco
The west bypass is already one of the busiest motorway routes in Switzerland. Safety and glare-free lighting are guaranteed with over 15,000 Siteco Travalux R Hexal luminaires and over 300 SR100 luminaires. A central theme for the planning stage from the beginning was safety. In order to guarantee a high degree of safety and ease of maintenance, Travalux R Hexal tunnel luminaires were deployed within the tunnels in the area of the Birmendorf bypass. Due to the continuous trunking installation, drivers benefit from an excellent optical guidance. The Hexal reflector with hexagonal structure offers a homogenous, glare-free illumination of the whole traffic area. Ease of maintenance is a further charactertistic of Travalux R Hexal. A lever lock and an intelligent installation method allow a tool-free and simple replacing of the efficient and energy-saving lamps.
The Siteco lighting concept is an integral concept. It combines the illumination of the tunnels and the 210m long Reppischtal bridge. The Siteco SR100 road luminaire achieves an optimal adaption of the eyes on the bridge section between the tunnels, allowing a feeling of safety and well-being for drivers.
With the Siteco Travalux R Hexal, the SR100 and the technological knowledge of Siteco, the lighting company offers safety and cost efficiency. A unified, competent and individual solution for every traffic deployment situation results in well-being and safety.
