The creation of the most compact traffic signal in the world gave the New Hampshire Business Resource Center a green light to present its June “Innovation Rocks!” award to Holase Incorporated.

The Newmarket-based company, which designs, manufactures and sells information systems solutions for public safety, first responders and homeland security, created the Ultra Portable Traffic Management System (UPTMS), a traffic signal that fits inside a duffel bag and easily stows in the trunk of a compact car. All units are capable of being programmed independently using the intelligent secure wireless remote control.

Holase developed the UPTMS to ensure the safety of its users when deployed during emergency situations and during work zone details. The product is also energy efficient in that it features optional solar panels that provide the possibility of operating the system indefinitely.

“Holase has created a product that saves time when it is needed most and allows first responders to do their jobs efficiently and safely,” said New Hampshire Division of Economic Development Interim Director Roy Duddy. “Emergency personnel everywhere can thank this New Hampshire company for its creativity and innovation.”
