Kingskerswell Bypass | Line Marking | Case Study | QMS

Introduction

The traffic calming scheme within the village of Kingskerswell saw various traffic calming features along the whole 2.7km route within the built-up area of the village. These features included the removal of a signalised junction and introduction of shared spaces together with widened and improved cycle lanes utilising road markings and coloured surface treatments to assist with highlighting the various areas.

Devon County Council employed local company Bridge Civil Engineering as the main contractor for the Traffic Calming Scheme who in turn employed Quality Marking Services to carry out the alterations to the line marking and surface treatments for the project.

“Having QMS on site to deliver their specialist works provides peace of mind to us and our client. They approached the project with total professionalism and the quality of the finished product was superb as always!”

Dave Ellis, Managing Director, Bridge Civil Engineering.

QMS HyperGrip™

Following the completion of the civil engineering works, QMS mobilised to site and proceeded to install the line marking using a combination of Thermoplastic Screed and Preformed Thermoplastic Road Marking materials. These markings were installed by our trained and qualified workforce who carry an NVQ level 2 or 3 together with SSSTS or SMSTS qualification for site safety.

QMS HyperGrip™ was chosen for the surface treatments which was installed by our skilled and qualified workforce. QMS HyperGrip™ is a cold applied BBA HAPAS Type 1 system, certificate number 15/H233 comprising of a Methyl Methacrylate binder and Calcined Bauxite aggregate. The system is installed with a FIVE year guarantee and when cured remains extremely flexible, significantly reducing the risk of post installation cracking to the finished surface.

Prior to the opening of the South Devon Link Road in December 2015, the village of Kingskerswell used to take 20,000 vehicles per day which significantly reduced following the opening of the new bypass (another project where the line marking and surface treatments were successfully installed by QMS).

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. There has been a couple of crews doing the lining and antiskid works local to me on the new surfacing project on Callington road, Tavistock and the quality of work is spot on. Its done nothing but rain here for the last 2 months and as someone who spent over 25 years lining I can appreciate what they`ve been up against, especially with anti skid and MMA lining materials.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great company! I recently used this company for a last minute job. They were really busy but they managed to squeeze me in. It’s really nice to work with a company that come out in person and really listen to what you need, and then work with you to achieve it! Thanks QMS, you were great! Highly recommend!
