Making cycle and pedestrian crossings safer at intersections
Intersections must be given special road safety treatment. Aximum offers innovative solutions to avoid potential conflicts of use. Enhanced signage and intelligent priority management systems make it possible to make safer to use soft modes of transport but also road traffic. Our teams can offer you solutions tailored to each lane configuration, so you can design intersections and make cycle and pedestrian crossings safer.
Crossing times adapted to needs: SOFFT Piétons solution
Crossing times adapted to needs: SOFFT Piétons solution
Pedestrian crossings are an area where safety must be maximised and users must feel protected. Aximum offers the innovative SOFFT Piétons solution for:
- Make the path of vulnerable users safer
- Enhance pedestrian crossings by adapting the green time to pedestrian traffic
- Improve pedestrian experience and comfort.
How does it work? An AI* pedestrian sensor is deployed at a pedestrian crossing at a traffic-light junction. The algorithm analyses and calculates the flow of people waiting. Depending on the density, the crossing time is adapted in real time to make it easier for pedestrians to cross. This information is also fed back to the monitoring systems for optimum management of traffic light junctions. Once the crossing is complete, traffic resumes.
Pedestrian crossings at intersections with traffic lights are made safer by adapting crossing times according to the presence and number of pedestrians detected waiting. By taking real needs into account, the system encourages soft modes of transport, without penalising vehicles in the absence of pedestrians, thus helping to reduce polluting emissions.

Traffic lights: improving visibility
Traffic lights: improving visibility
Our teams can offer you traffic light solutions to enhance safety in hazardous road areas, in addition to existing signage. By alerting drivers to the possible presence of pedestrians or cyclists, this equipment aims to increase vigilance when approaching dangerous points, day or night.
Reinforced Diode Signs PRD display regulatory signs on which diodes are fitted to reinforce the message. They are available in a range of sizes and shapes to meet all signage needs on different road types.
Mains- or street light powered, they are also available in solar-powered versions, offering up to 3 weeks of complete autonomy, making them easy to install in any environment. This solar-powered illuminated signage also helps conserve energy resources.
