At Jones Site Services & Installations, our commitment to safety and efficiency shines through in every project we undertake. A prime example of this commitment is our recent collaboration with Tarmac, where we have been actively involved in enhancing pedestrian safety across various sites. Our team has been diligently working on installing custom-painted road studs to demarcate pedestrian walkways—a simple yet highly effective safety solution.

Why Custom Road Studs?

The challenge in busy industrial sites, particularly those with a high volume of plant and vehicle traffic, is ensuring the safety of all personnel, including site operators and visitors. The interface between heavy machinery and pedestrian traffic can often become a point of risk. To address this, we have introduced brightly colored, custom-painted road studs designed to clearly outline pedestrian zones.

These road studs serve a dual purpose. Firstly, they visually alert drivers and machine operators to the designated walkways, ensuring they remain vigilant while navigating through the site. Secondly, they provide a clear and safe path for pedestrians, significantly reducing the risk of accidents and enhancing overall site safety.

The Installation Process

Our installation process is tailored to meet the unique needs of each site. Working alongside our partners at Tarmac, we begin by assessing the site layout and identifying key areas where pedestrian and vehicle traffic intersect. Once these critical points are established, we proceed with the strategic placement of the road studs.

The road studs we use are not only durable and able to withstand the heavy traffic typically seen in industrial environments, but they are also custom-painted to enhance visibility. This customization is particularly important in areas that may be poorly lit or subject to adverse weather conditions, ensuring that the safety measures are effective at all times.

Impact and Effectiveness

The feedback from sites equipped with these custom road studs has been overwhelmingly positive. Site managers have noted a marked improvement in traffic flow and a significant decrease in near-miss incidents involving pedestrians and machinery. By clearly delineating walkways, we've helped create an environment where safety is visibly prioritized and maintained.

Moreover, the visibility of the custom studs makes it easy for everyone on site, regardless of their role, to identify safe zones quickly. This simple measure not only promotes safety but also contributes to a more organized and efficient operational environment.

Looking Ahead

Jones Site Services & Installations is proud to be at the forefront of innovative safety solutions in the industrial sector. Our work with Tarmac is just one instance of how we tailor our expertise to meet the specific needs of our clients and enhance safety across various operational environments.

As we move forward, we remain committed to introducing new and innovative measures that ensure safety and efficiency. Our goal is not just to meet industry standards but to set them, ensuring that every project we undertake is a benchmark in safety and professionalism.
