UNSPSC 46161526: Pedestrian sensor

A type of device that enables the number of pedestrians or direction flow to sense as it is installed on the cross road where the passage of the pedestrian is very busy.

UNSPSC 46161526 Pedestrian sensor is a Commodity code capturing detection and signaling equipment that state and local governments deploy in traffic management and intersection control. Recent solicitations show the code encompasses vehicle and pedestrian detection systems, solar-powered flasher assemblies, rectangular rapid flashing beacons (RRFBs), accessible pedestrian signals with audible and vibro-tactile features, and lighted traffic control signage—all integrated into signalized intersection upgrades and multimodal safety improvements. Brevard County, Florida has posted multiple sole-source procurements in 2026 for detection equipment from vendors including Derq USA, Inc., ITS Plus, Inc., and Control Technologies/FLIR, totaling across multiple notices roughly $50,000 to undisclosed amounts. Beyond Florida, the code sees activity in Connecticut (Town of Manchester ITB for signal maintenance including pedestrian signal cleaning and APS installation, due November 6, 2026), Georgia (Gwinnett County and Sandy Springs pedestrian-focused signal work), Texas (Brownsville and Fort Worth multimodal signal improvements), and California (Torrance radar feedback sign installation, due April 29, 2026). The issuing bodies span county transportation departments (Brevard, Pasco, Orange, Okaloosa), municipal public works (Manchester, Fort Worth, Dallas, Orlando, Tampa), and regional transit/signal authorities; Brevard County appears as a repeat buyer.

Recent opportunities reveal a market split between retrofit and modernization projects (Orange County, Florida's $10.97 million two-phase traffic signal upgrade, responding by October 22, 2026; Broward County's Royal Palm Boulevard pedestrian signal upgrades) and as-needed parts and maintenance contracts (Sacramento County's cooperative purchasing for signal heads and pedestrian equipment via SCoPA; County of Tucson's $400,000 annual traffic signal and lighting poles IFB). Notice types range across ITB, RFP, and RFQ vehicles with response windows from 30 to 120+ days. Geographic concentration runs heaviest in Florida (Brevard, Orange, Pasco, Broward, Collier counties), Georgia (Gwinnett, Sandy Springs), and Texas, with scattered activity across Connecticut, California, Kansas, and Maine. Many procurements carry federal compliance obligations (Davis-Bacon prevailing wage, DBE participation, FDOT prequalification) where FHWA or state DOT funding is present; Florida Statute 287.057 sole-source authority and county policy enable rapid award on proprietary detection and signaling equipment. A rising thread across opportunities is integration of connected-vehicle readiness (DSRC and C-V2X support) and adaptive signal control, particularly in Orange County and Town of Farragut, Tennessee work.
