The A27 Shopwyke project, completed in May 2024, involved the installation of a concrete barrier to protect the piers of a footbridge situated at the edge of a busy roundabout. Hill & Smith Infrastructure was awarded the contract, marking another successful project completed for long-standing client, Newton & Frost.
The pre-painted red and white Multibloc TVCB were installed 4.3m from the running face of the temporary studs and the line of the traffic in the central reserve as a new method of access and egress in place of the standard practice of cone and rope placement. Traffic management and safety lane closures for working in and around the access and egress points were no longer required and works using plant and machinery can continue unabated behind the Hardstaff Multibloc.
Specialist temporary vehicle restraint systems (TVRS) were installed to protect the bridges, located east and westbound on the M50 motorway, while the intricate repair work was carried out.
Highways England manages the strategic road network in England, comprising motorways and some A roads. When steel central reserve barriers are coming to the end of their working life, Highways England has a policy to replace them with concrete barriers on motorways and very busy sections of dual carriageway.
Concrete barrier systems are highly robust and are designed to safely redirect errant vehicles and prevent them from breaking through the barrier in a collision.
In summer 2019, Highways England began a scheme to upgrade the central reserve barrier between Junctions 24 and 25 of the M5 motorway, in Somerset.
The M5 is a busy motorway linking the Midlands and South West of England, and is used by thousands of motorists each day.
As part of Transport Scotland’s strategic trunk road maintenance programme, Scotland TranServ is delivering the second phase of a £1.8m programme of protection works to the M74 bridge piers.
Multibloc TVCBs provide a new method of access and egress delineation into the central reserve.
