Audible Cone Alert Systems, Inc.
Active Alert Safety System for Utility and Telecom Roadside Work
AudibleCone™ is intended for utility and telecommunications crews performing roadside and shoulder work where vehicles and workers operate in close proximity.
The system adds an active alert layer to existing safety practices, supporting worker awareness during short-duration operations without altering traffic control plans.
AudibleCone™ is intended to augment existing traffic control plans, PPE, training, and regulatory compliance. Responsibility for safety planning and deployment remains with the deploying organization.

Roadside Work with Limited Margin for Error
Utility and telecom crews frequently work on shoulders, rights-of-way, and narrow roadside areas where live traffic passes close to active work.
Operations are often short in duration but involve elevated exposure due to proximity to moving vehicles.
Crews may be focused on equipment, infrastructure, or coordination tasks rather than monitoring approaching vehicles, particularly in noisy or visually complex environments.
AudibleCone™ is intended to add an active alert layer under these conditions.
Short-Duration Work Still Carries Exposure
Because many utility and telecom jobs are brief, traffic control setups may be minimal or frequently adjusted.
This can increase reliance on worker vigilance and driver compliance.
AudibleCone™ does not replace cones, signage, or training. It is intended to supplement these measures by providing audible and tactile (wearable device) active alerts when a deployed cone-mounted sensor is impacted.
Typical Utility and Telecom Applications
Shoulder and Right-of-Way Work
Applicable where crews work close to traffic with limited separation.
Night and Low-Visibility Operations
Applicable in conditions where darkness, weather, or glare limit early visual detection.
Small Crews
Introduces an active alert layer when staffing limits reduce dedicated lookout capacity.
Intended for Rapid Deployment
AudibleCone™ is intended to deploy using existing traffic cones and equipment commonly used by utility and telecom crews.
The system does not prescribe cone spacing or layouts and is intended to integrate into established safety practices.
Built for Real-World Utility Operations
Utility and telecom work often requires flexibility as conditions change throughout the day.
AudibleCone™ is designed to allow crews to reposition system components as site conditions evolve.
