ELEVATING SAFETY: INNOVATIVE DESIGNS FOR ADJUSTABLE ROADWAY HEIGHT LIMITERS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Urbanization and the burgeoning development of cities have led to a widespread increase in vehicular traffic, emphasizing the need for effective urban construction strategies. However, this progress has also given rise to challenges, particularly the frequent occurrence of oversized and over-height vehicles on city roads. The presence of such vehicles poses substantial security risks to both road users and the surrounding environment. In response to these challenges, a novel solution has emerged in the form of height limiters for roads. These limiters exhibit a unique feature - height adjustability, allowing them to accommodate vehicles of varying heights effectively. This research explores the design, implementation, and impact of these innovative road height limiters. The adjustable nature of these limiters is a key aspect, enabling them to cater to diverse vehicle heights. By incorporating this technology into urban infrastructure, cities can mitigate the risks associated with over-height vehicles, ensuring enhanced safety for all road users. The study delves into the engineering and technological aspects of these limiters, analyzing their efficiency in regulating vehicular height and preventing potential hazards. Furthermore, the research investigates the broader implications of adopting such road height limiters. This includes an assessment of the economic and environmental benefits derived from the enhanced safety measures. The implementation of height limiters not only safeguards against security risks but also contributes to the overall sustainability of urban transportation systems. Additionally, the study examines the adaptability of these limiters in different urban settings and explores their integration with existing traffic management systems. Through empirical analysis and case studies, this research aims to provide valuable insights into the practicality and efficacy of road height limiters. The findings will contribute to the refinement of urban planning and infrastructure development strategies, emphasizing the importance of incorporating adaptive technologies to address emerging challenges
