Vehicle Restraint Systems
We design, manufacture, supply and install a comprehensive range of temporary and permanent vehicle restraint systems (VRS) that keep road users and road workers safe across the UK’s strategic road network and beyond.
From precast concrete barriers and steel systems to wire rope barriers, crash cushions and terminals, every product is tested to EN 1317 so the right containment level and working width can be specified for each scheme.
Our team supports you from early design through to installation, with UK-manufactured products, strategically located depots and a 24-hour emergency call-out service.
