Sign Structures, Mast Arms & High Mast Lights

Collins has inspected over 55,000 sign structures and high mast lights for DOTs nationwide. Drawing on years of experience, Collins assists DOTs in the development of inspection program requirements and staff training, and writes inspection guideline manuals.

Collins considers the safety of its inspectors and the driving public to be paramount during any inspection. The inspectors at Collins use safe climbing techniques, bucket trucks, and standard traffic control methods for lane closures to access all parts of a sign structure. Today, there are increasing demands on public agencies to develop and maintain rigorous inspection programs for the sign structures that traverse the nation’s transportation infrastructure. Collins is positioned to meet those needs using highly qualified teams of engineers and inspectors.
