Reward traffic lights, designed to regulate driver speed, have been operational since October 27, 2026, in front of the Armailler school in Bourg-lès-Valence.

This system, also known as "micro-regulation lights," aims to encourage drivers to adhere to the speed limit, especially near the school, to improve the safety of all users.
The operating principle is straightforward: these intelligent traffic lights remain red by default. They only turn green when drivers respect the authorized speed. If this limit is exceeded, the light stays red, thus prompting drivers to slow down.
This setup is intended to promote more responsible driving and contribute to overall safety, with a particular focus on protecting children traveling near the school.
