Case study

West Street, Blackpool

Simple installation in under one hour

Location

West Street, Blackpool

ISSUE

Crossing needed repair following excavation by electricity company

KEY BENEFITS

No ground preparation or special pre-installation requirements

Background

Due to a fault with an underground cable area outside municipal buildings in Blackpool, a patch of block paving, including a previously installed TAC-GRID crossing, needed to be removed and replaced.

Solution

This was a simple installation as the TAC-GRID system does not require ground preparation or any special requirements pre-installation. It can be laid on any hard, level surface as long as it is good quality. In this case, the team that re-installed the block paving could install TAC- GRID as standard.

By using our own traffic management, consisting of cones, barrier and signs, the installation team only need a small space to work in allowing the road and the footway to remain open throughout. No large plant or equipment is used in the installation process, just a battery powered hand mixer, rollers and brushes.

Outcome

The installation was completed within 45 minutes with no disruption to pedestrians, vehicles or the employees working in the building.
