The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has purchased well over 100 PT1000’s from Nighthawk for the control of roadside signage to communicate weather-related hazards to drivers.

The PT1000 is ideal for on-demand activation of messages on signs, and can also be utilized to activate flashing roadside signs and their associated radio transmissions. Nighthawk products are used by several departments of transportation, including Colorado, Washington, Oregon and Pennsylvania.

Douglas Saathoff, Nighthawk’s CEO, said: I am very pleased to receive this additional order from Traffic Signal Controls. Repeat orders from multiple state departments of transportation are testimony to the usefulness and reliability of our products. We’ve had so much success recently within our primary market selling to electric utilities that many people may not realize that our products continue to be used across a variety of industries and applications.
