At LMS Highways we usually find ourselves working on major trunk roads delivering highway repairs so when we received a job in Liverpool City Centre, Projects Manager Paul Burton jumped at the opportunity for a new environment with a different set of challenges.
LMS Highways were recently requested to deliver 12 Concrete Bay Replacements to A27 Westbound Carriageway over a single weekend closure, this was achieved by our efficient removal process and using a rapid set concrete.
With the UK entering a recession and the government making necessary budget cuts throughout many sectors, it’s looking as though budgets for highway schemes will be reduced for 2023, forcing projects to focus on preventative and life extending highway repairs as opposed to replacements.
LMS Highways are a national supplier of specialist highways maintenance projects including high early strength concrete repair. Using rapid repair technology developed over 30 years in the Highways sector, the LMS team are able to remove and reinstate concrete bays within an impressive six-hour period.
For many years LMS Highways has been using a vacuum lifting system for fast and efficient concrete bay removal. Vacuum lifting equipment is widely used in many industrial sectors for the lifting and handling of materials that have a flat or smooth surface. In particular, materials such as concrete slabs, metal or glass panes and pipes etc. can be easily lifted and handled using vacuum lifting equipment.
Starting in June LMS Highways assisted in the A1 Buckden Roundabout major renewal project which consisted of resurfacing, road stud replacement and line marking. LMS Highways were on site to provide the concrete bay and deep surface removal, sub-base replacement and disposal portion of this project.
The package repair projects were delivered to both Brunswick Road and Henwood Industrial Estate in Ashford as part of Kent County Councils on-going maintenance and improvement of the highway network. Read more
The team have been refurbishing sections of Henwood Industrial Estate, work included a variety of repair services such as, concrete bay replacements, ironwork, thin bond repairs, joint sealing and road marking. This perfectly demonstrates our unique ability to deliver a wide range of services under one point of accountability.
