Maintenance on the road network is tightly programmed, frequently at night, and the sweeper is one part of a larger operation that has to finish before the road reopens.
Typical sweeping work
- Sweeping within closures before and after maintenance works
- Channel and kerb sweeping on carriageways
- Detritus removal from lay-bys, slip roads and central reserves, within traffic management
- Clearing debris after incidents and severe weather
- Sweeping ahead of surface treatments and lining
What to plan for
Tell us the road, the type of traffic management and the working window. If operators need specific tickets, vehicle markings or lighting to work on your network, say so at the outset so we approach operators who meet the requirement.
Regular and multi-site work
Cyclic and programmed sweeping is covered under nationwide contract sweeping; night closures under out-of-hours road sweeping.
