Road hazard warning systems and methods that deliver real-time, point-of-need alerts to road users. One system includes a command station with at least one sensor responsive to hazardous roadway conditions, a two-way communications system, a control system, and a power supply. The command station transmits hazard signals when a threshold condition is detected or when hazard information is received from external sources. A tactical station includes a communications receiver, a control system, a power supply, and a warning system such as flashing lights, illuminated signage, or reflectors. In some embodiments, multiple combined command/tactical stations are deployed along a roadway, each configured to detect hazards, exchange signals, and activate warnings. Sensors may include water depth, flow velocity, or pressure devices. Power may be supplied by a battery and solar panel. Methods are disclosed for detecting hazards, transmitting signals, and activating warnings to mitigate roadway risks.
