Balneário Camboriú tests intelligent pedestrian crossings

Balneário Camboriú has launched a pilot project featuring intelligent pedestrian crossing technology on Avenida do Estado Dalmo Vieira. The system, installed in front of the São Sebastião Church in the Pioneiros neighborhood, utilizes sensors, cameras, and specialized lighting to increase pedestrian visibility.

The infrastructure includes retroilluminated signs with flashing modules, auxiliary luminous signs, and lighting projected directly onto the crosswalk. These components are designed to alert drivers during both day and night, as well as in adverse weather conditions like rain.

In addition to enhancing safety, the system allows BC Trânsito to monitor traffic behavior and crosswalk usage in real time. The data collected during this testing phase will be used to inform future decisions regarding road safety and traffic moderation measures.
