Whether you’re changing overhead signs on highways, installing streetlights downtown, or maintaining traffic signals in suburban intersections, your crews need a bucket truck with a specialized industry setup that’s fast to deploy, easy to maneuver, and built for visibility and control.
Sign and lighting crews often operate just feet from live traffic, which leaves little room for error or oversize equipment. That’s why bucket trucks for sign, light, and traffic work are often built on compact, low-profile chassis designed for easy positioning in tight spaces.
A specialized industry setup in this segment typically includes:
These features ensure that work can begin quickly and safely – even in active lanes or tight urban corridors – without excessive traffic control setup.
Sign and light work often requires careful positioning to mount fixtures, align signage, or adjust wiring at precise elevations. That’s where bucket trucks with fine-tuned lift control systems become essential. Operators need smooth, proportional boom movements, platform rotation, and access to tools without needing to climb in and out of the bucket.
Versalift trucks for this segment offer:
These capabilities help teams complete complex jobs faster – and with fewer repositionings or manual adjustments.

Visibility is critical when working near traffic. Crews must be seen, and they must be able to see clearly. That’s why specialized sign and light bucket truck setups often include:
Combined with fall protection anchors and emergency descent systems, these features help meet DOT and municipal safety standards while giving operators the confidence to work efficiently in dynamic, high-risk environments.
