The challenge
Slow-moving HGVs entering and exiting construction sites and quarries are a familiar sight on our roads, and without the right intelligent transport system (ITS) kit in place, they can wreak havoc for passing motorists. The risk – and potential cost – of dangerous collision is high, as is the prospect of significant operational inefficiency caused by slow-moving plant.
Access to work-zones must be limited to authorised vehicles only, guarding against incursions to protect the workforce and ensure site security.
And of course, carbon footprints must be kept to a minimum, as managers work towards increasingly ambitious sustainability targets.
The solution
SRL loves a challenge and our pioneering approach to developing innovative portable and temporary ITS hire solutions to enable customers to carry out their work safely, efficiently and sustainably is well-known throughout the industry.
Created in partnership with our customer Chevron, the patented, award-winning Haul Route PLUS mobile crossing system elegantly combines RiseMaster HE work-zone protection barriers, variable message signs (VMS), ANPR, CCTV and traffic signals.
It is the only mobile solution to feature integrated adaptive detection technology, enabling signals to operate to timings reflecting the actual flow of traffic, accommodating the slowest plant and reducing carbon emissions caused by sitting vehicles. Barriers respond to ANPR, preventing unauthorised access.
100% solar or hybrid components mean that customers can “fit-and-forget” the solution, keeping maintenance to a minimum. The only wireless system on the market, it’s quick and easy to install. And it can be remotely operated from a position of safety.
Meanwhile, our original Haul Route Crossing solution ably meets the needs of customers responsible for shorter or less complex projects.
All kit is created with resilience in mind, incorporating robust design features and guaranteeing reliable performance whatever the weather and however rugged and remote the location.
Whatever your haul route challenge, SRL will work in efficient partnership with you to design and deliver a bespoke solution that enables you to get on with the job in hand. Safely, efficiently and sustainably.
