Public Transport

Curbs at bus and train stops pose a particular accident risk for older people and those with impaired vision. It is not only falls from high curbs that cause numerous injuries here: getting out of brightly lit vehicles into the darker stop area is particularly challenging even for those with healthy eyesight and impairs passengers' surefootedness.

Even in the absence of any other lighting, LightStone provides valuable orientation assistance in recognizing the distance to the sidewalk surface, even in snowfall, while avoiding any glare. In addition, the row of safety lights can be extended into pedestrian areas to prevent collisions, especially with relatively quiet trams.

LightStone is extremely energy-efficient, consuming only 0.6W per light, and avoids all associated follow-up costs as there is no need to replace light bulbs.

The multitude of signs, neon signs, and other visual stimuli is making public traffic areas increasingly confusing; as a result, the number of accidents, especially minor ones, is rising. Even the almost daylight-bright lighting of traffic areas only helps to a limited extent, because the actual obstacles and trip hazards are all too easily overlooked in the gray-on-gray of paved and asphalt surfaces.

LightStone offers a universal solution here with its contrast-enhancing luminous effect. Hazards for pedestrians and drivers are clearly marked exactly where they occur: directly on the ground! In addition to its warning effect on all road users, LightStone's contrasting edge design offers visually impaired and elderly people with minor impairments a significantly improved overview and orientation.

In no other area do the concerns of monument preservation and modern lighting design clash as irreconcilably as in the integration of modern traffic safety measures into historic old towns.

LightStone offers you the opportunity to clearly highlight all nighttime hazards and accident blackspots without detracting from the historical appearance of your cityscape in daylight. At public transport stops, LightStone clearly warns passengers of falling off the high curb edge and gives visually impaired people a significantly better overview.
