INDIANAPOLIS — In February, INDOT announced a new work zone initiative to increase worker safety called Project
Greenlight, equipping workers with Guardian Angel safety lights to help bring awareness to workers in times of limited visibility.
Guardian Angel safety lights are wearable devices with flashing green patterns that improve worker visibility from all directions.
When worn with a high-visibility vest, these lights help workers become 89% more visible to motorists, according to a study from Battelle Memorial Institute. INDOT has distributed nearly 750 lights to employees statewide.
Did you know? Bright green is the most visible color to the human eye and is most visible from far distances. Green is also easily distinguishable from other standard lighting in INDOT work zones.
