Webinar Recap: Vantage PedSafe in Action – San Marcos, TX

In our recent webinar, Vantage PedSafe in Action, we explored how Vantage PedSafe™ is transforming pedestrian safety at one of the most high-traffic and dangerous types of crossings: mid-block crosswalks near busy campuses.

The session focused on a real-world deployment in San Marcos, Texas, where Texas State University’s 40,000+ students regularly cross a high-speed, high-volume road that cuts through campus. With limited visibility and constant pedestrian activity, it’s a hotspot for risk—and an ideal use case for Vantage PedSafe.

Key takeaways from the webinar:

Smart Detection for Real Behavior

• Vantage PedSafe uses radar to detect pedestrians curb to curb, even without button presses

• It adapts to real-world behaviors like late or distracted crossings

• Activates lighting, signage, and signal timing only when needed to maintain driver alertness

Data-Driven Insights with ClearGuide®

• Supported planning and evaluation by identifying pedestrian volumes and vehicle speeds

• Helped justify investment and track ongoing impact

Why it matters: This deployment shows how smarter infrastructure can reduce pedestrian risk—especially in areas with high student populations or underserved communities. It’s scalable, equitable, and ready for integration with connected vehicle tech.
