Tunnel, Rail & Traffic Communications

In complex environments like railway networks, tunnel projects, and traffic control zones, effective communication isn’t optional — it’s critical for both safety and operational flow. Whether coordinating live rail work, controlling traffic around construction sites, or managing tunnel safety from entry to exit, reliable two-way communication ensures that teams remain in sync and risks are minimised.

At Radio Industries, we supply specialist communication systems used by train conductors, track maintenance crews, tunnel safety staff, traffic controllers, and civil infrastructure teams across Australia. From UHF CB to private frequency systems, full-duplex headsets, and long-distance cellular radios, we provide the right solution for every operational need.

Solutions for Every Application

We support all types of comms needs in this sector, including:

• Train conductors & rail workers requiring continuous updates across moving carriages

• Tunnel construction and safety teams coordinating across long, signal-challenged spaces

• Traffic controllers needing clear comms on UHF CB or licensed private channels

• Truck drivers and spotters who must speak across short distances using UHF CB-compatible radios

• Supervisors or site leads who need to communicate from one end of a tunnel to another — even beyond line-of-sight

Our solutions include standard push-to-talk radios, hands-free full-duplex systems, and Ozitel Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) — ideal for long-range communication over WiFi or 4G where traditional radio networks fall short.
