129 Swarco Traffic has completed the installation of a network of 27 electronic variable message signs (VMS) at some of the busiest highway locations in the north-east of the UK. The signs are intended to give motorists key information to help them plan their journey and warn them of weather disruption and other potential hazards.

Planning and coordinating the works involved consultation and planning with the various local authorities in the region and Swarco Traffic worked closely throughout the project with the scheme designers to determine the optimum locations for the signs, taking into account when drivers require information and maximum visibility.

Swarco was also responsible for managing the associate civil engineering works and the installation of permanent roadside barriers. It will maintain the signs for the next seven years.
