Our Founder

Keep verbatim — the Lorne Hooper quote is brand history, not geography-specific, and it’s genuinely good copy:

“When you look at a street sign, what do you think? Probably not much. You take the information you need from it, then you carry on your journey. But to us, they’re so much more than that. In the 60s there were only a few products on the market to protect work zones. ATS Traffic was founded on the idea of providing quality traffic products that make our roads safer.”
