Intellicone® Incursion Prevention & Warning System (IPAWS)
Smart digital protection to keep people and worksites safe in the urban environment
The Intellicone® Incursion Prevention & Warning System (IPAWS) is a connected safety system designed to protect workers, pedestrians, and the public during streetworks and temporary traffic management.
By creating a digital safety perimeter, IPAWS detects unauthorised access and alerts operatives instantly – helping prevent accidents, reduce confrontation, and enhance efficiency in busy urban settings.
Core Benefits
Protects people | Instantly alerts the workforce to unauthorised incursions or breaches. |
Reduces confrontation | Removes the need for operatives to manually guard closure points. |
Improves efficiency | Enables remote monitoring and smarter resource deployment across streetworks. |

How It Works
Intellicone® IPAWS uses smart cone-mounted units and connected alarms to form an active safety zone around a site.
When a vehicle or pedestrian attempts to enter the closure:
-
Motion or cone movement is detected immediately
-
Local and remote alarms are triggered in real time
-
Audible and visual warnings deter the intruder
-
The workforce is instantly alerted and can move to safety
-
Optional smart cameras – Intellicam® – record activity for review
Highly modular and simple to deploy, the system suits urban streetworks, lane closures, pedestrian diversions, and utility excavations – anywhere people and live traffic interact.

Urban Use Examples
Access Points
Protects vulnerable access points by alarming incursions and giving site teams early warning to respond safely.
Road Closures
Digitally alarms cone lines, reducing the need for staff at closure points and helping prevent confrontation with drivers.
Footway & Cycleway Works
Maintains secure pedestrian and cycleway boundaries, with instant alerts if barriers or cones are disturbed.
Resident or Service Access
Allows authorised vehicles such as residents or emergency services to enter, while maintaining digital monitoring and full safety alert capability.
