About

FAQ iconWe installed rumble strips on several highways throughout the Willamette Valley and Northwest Oregon. Rumble strips are grooves in the pavement that create vibration and sound to alert drivers when they are leaving a lane.

Rumble strips can reduce the number of roadway departure fatalities by 20%. They're a successful and low-cost way to make our roads safer.
