Traffic management system

EQUANS has developed a traffic management system to ensure the safe movement of plant and vehicles, and the health and safety of site personnel, the general public and the users of the local highway. To minimise disruption to local residents and businesses, the delivery of materials will be arranged to take place out of peak traffic times. For the full policy please contact marshfarm@equans.com.
