Since 1951, National Barricade has provided traffic control services in Western Washington, from Blaine to Vancouver and beyond. If you've attended any major event in the Seattle area in the last few years, chances are you've seen our signs, cones and barriers around Seattle. Whether you're an event promoter, a representative for a construction company, or member of law enforcement, we can help you with your traffic control equipment needs. In addition to providing traffic sign rental & equipment, we also provide safety and protective gear to ensure all workers stay safe.
Before beginning any project, we conduct a site assessment, take measurements and readings, and create a model to determine the most cost-effective solution and select the best equipment and process for the assigned project.
Trained flaggers wear high visibility clothing that incorporates two safety features. Fluorescent colors appear brighter and seem to glow when they react with UV light, and reflective materials block light and refract it off the surface.
In addition to site assessment surveys and ground evaluation, we also perform impact studies for the surrounding area to identify any structures that could be affected, and provide notification of the scheduled project.
Roadway construction, maintenance, and utility work operations all require shifts in the general flow of traffic at a particular site. Traffic flagging services are critical here, as they will direct and guide travelers safely and efficiently through the area.
