Welcome to the latest edition of your newsletter. It’s a chance to share what’s happening across the UK business, highlight the great work our teams are delivering, and keep everyone connected as we move forward together.
Our industry continues to evolve, and you’ll have seen the recent announcement that Triton has agreed to sell Ramudden Global to I Squared Capital. It marks the next stage in our journey and future growth.
But while things change around us, what doesn’t change is how we operate day to day.
Success in our business comes down to getting the basics right.
Over recent weeks, I’ve spent time out across a number of our depots and sites, including Stafford, Detling, Tring, Stanton and Tewkesbury. As always, it’s been great to see the commitment and energy of our teams. It’s also a reminder that we all have a role to play in keeping standards high, especially when it comes to safety, housekeeping and the pride we take in our working environments.
Good housekeeping isn’t just about appearance. It’s about working safely, staying organised and doing things properly. When we get the basics right every day, we create safer workplaces, stronger teams and better outcomes for our customers.
Our success is built on two things, how well we look after our customers, and how well we look after each other.
When we support one another, share knowledge and step in to help, we deliver the kind of service our customers rely on. It’s that collective effort, and personal responsibility to always improve, that keeps raising standards across the business.
That’s also being recognised beyond our day-today work. It’s fantastic to see our People team shortlisted for People Team of the Year at the British HR Awards 2026, alongside Tim Walmsley, nominated for Health & Safety Champion of the Year, and Jason Winterburn, nominated for Operations Manager of the Year at the Hire Awards of Excellence. Recognition like this reflects the strength of our people and the progress we’re making, particularly as we continue to grow our Urban Solutions business.
We also saw that momentum at our recent ‘Get Set for Growth’ event. It was a great opportunity to step back and look at the full picture of Ramudden Global UK - how our Traffic Services, Urban Solutions, Highways Solutions and Digital Solutions come together, and how that combined strength positions us for the next phase of growth.
There are exciting opportunities ahead, but they all come back to the same things: doing the basics well, looking after our customers, and looking out for each other.
Everything we do is guided by our mission: To get people home safely every day.
Thank you for the part you play in making that happen.
Adam Caulfield, President
“The day created space for conversations between colleagues and customers that don’t always happen during the normal running of projects.”
Get set for growth.
In February, we held our first ever Ramudden Global UK “Get Set for Growth” event, bringing together colleagues from across the business along with a number of our customers for a day focused on collaboration, insight and the opportunities ahead for our group.
The event gave people the chance to step back from the day-to-day and look at the bigger picture of Ramudden Global UK. It brought together Ramudden Traffic Services, Urban Solutions, Highways Solutions and Digital Solutions to show how the different parts of the group work together and how our combined expertise strengthens the services we provide.
We were also pleased to welcome colleagues from Ramudden Global, who travelled to attend the event,
making it a great opportunity to connect with the wider group and share the direction of the UK business.
By bringing these teams and capabilities together in one place, the event also gave customers a clearer view of the end-to-end support we can offer as a group. From planning and design through to delivery on the ground, the day demonstrated how the different parts of Ramudden Global UK work together to support projects safely, efficiently and at scale.
Alongside our strong foundations in Traffic Management Services, there was real interest in how our wider capabilities support projects across sectors such as rail, energy infrastructure and utilities, and how these areas will continue to form part of our growth.
Just as importantly, the day created space for conversations between colleagues and customers that don’t always happen during the normal running of projects. The energy and engagement in the room showed how valuable it is to bring people together, share ideas and strengthen relationships across the group.
As our first event of this kind and scale, Get Set for Growth was an important milestone for Ramudden Global UK, showcasing the strength of our combined capabilities and the opportunities ahead as the group continues to grow.
A closer look at what the Highway Care team has been up to.
Highway Care was proud to be a part of the “Get Set for Growth” event at the National Conference Centre.
Members of our team were on the Highways Solutions stand alongside HBS, Roocroft and Metor, showcasing the ways we work collaboratively to deliver a complete, end-to-end approach to vehicle restraint systems and road safety solutions.
We also demonstrated our RB50 temporary HVM barrier system, highlighting how it can be used as a robust and versatile solution to help protect against vehicle incursions.
The Highway Care team were pleased to play a key role in a variety of road maintenance and upgrade projects, including a significant milestone on the M27 J10 project, where our team supported major construction activity delivered by VolkerFitzpatrick for Hampshire County Council, with the motorway reopening 26 hours ahead of programme.
The site team gave the following positive feedback: “The barrier removal and reinstatement was completed safely and efficiently”, and a big thank you was passed on to the team.
Very well done to our operatives and everyone involved across the group and supply chain!
Commercial Director, Ben Duncker and Engineering Director, Adrian Bullock represented Highway Care at the American Traffic Safety Services Association (ATSSA) Expo in February, catching up with our distributors, partners, and customers from across the globe.
Ben and Adrian spent time with colleagues from Ramudden Global North America at their stand. Plus, our HighwayGuard™ steel barrier system was showcased by our partner, Valtir, on their stand.
This event is always a good opportunity to share knowledge, best practice and strengthen our global partnerships.
Social Value is important to us at Highway Care, so when the Balfour Beatty M25 J10 team put out a call for support to help complete improvements to Oakleaf Enterprise’s training room, we were pleased to help towards funding a new carpet for the space.
Based in Guildford, Oakleaf Enterprise supports adults experiencing mental health challenges, helping them build skills, confidence and pathways into employment.
Highway Care warmly welcome Mitch Thompson to their team, as Apprentice TVRS Installer.
We asked Mitch what inspired him to join the highways industry on an apprenticeship. He said, “I like the idea of doing a hands-on job while helping to improve road safety. Starting as an apprentice allows me to learn practical skills and work as part of a team.”
Mitch will be shadowing our experienced operatives on site, gaining skills, industry knowledge and a real understanding of what it takes to safely deliver high-quality road safety solutions.
Apprenticeships play a vital role in strengthening our workforce, and we’re proud to support the next generation in our industry.
The Highway Care team exhibited at Intertraffic Amsterdam in March, showcasing their international product range, alongside colleagues from the wider Ramudden Global group.
Supporting safer, more efficient urban environments through the solutions we deliver.
The Urban Solutions we offer to our customers are a natural extension of our existing, market-leading Traffic Management services, helping to keep all roadway users safe from harm. Rather than viewing Ramudden Urban Solutions as a separate business area, it should be seen as a logical enhancement to the trusted support we already provide to the same customers, and new, across the same environments.
As the needs of our customers evolve, so too must our solutions. Urban Solutions allows us to broaden our proposition beyond traditional temporary traffic management, giving customers access to specialist protection systems that improve safety, reduce risk, and enhance the overall effectiveness of worksite operations. This is particularly important as we continue to enter new markets such as rail, energy infrastructure, and utilities infrastructure, where safety, compliance, and reliability are critical requirements.
Low-Speed Traffic Management sits within our Urban offering, supporting safe and efficient movement through towns, city centres and local road networks. From road closures and diversion routes to pedestrian management, events and temporary
signals, these services keep people moving while works are carried out safely and with minimal disruption. Delivered with local expertise and careful planning, low-speed plays a key role in how we bring our Urban solutions together.
“The day finished with a timed challenge to assemble the SVEA SoundPanel and Urban AT Fencing, with the girls’ team taking the win.”
We recently brought together our Business Development and Key Accounts teams for a dedicated Urban Solutions session, designed to align, educate and strengthen how we take this offer to market.
Led by Mick Ledden, Operational Excellence Director and Managing Director of Urban Solutions, the day focused on bringing the full Urban Solutions story to life, combining technical insight, commercial positioning and hands-on experience.
Nigel Dougan, Managing Director of HBS, took the team through the technical specifications behind our barrier systems, giving valuable detail on performance, application and what sets our solutions apart on site. Lisa Killinger, Marketing and Communications Director, then explored our value proposition, key messaging and how we can start to shift the conversation with customers, focusing not just on product, but on the bigger picture of integrated urban solutions.
At a group level, Anders Gilberg, Group Head of Products and R&D, shared the importance of continuing to develop the Urban Solutions
offering and what that means for the UK, reinforcing the role we play in a wider, forward-thinking strategy.
The session wasn’t just about presentations. The team got handson in the new demo area in Telford, working directly with the barriers and accessories to bring the learning to life. In true Apprentice style, the day finished with a timed challenge to assemble the SVEA SoundPanel and
Urban AT Fencing, with the girls’ team taking the win.
It was a great opportunity to bring the team together, build confidence in the offer and ensure we’re aligned in how we present Urban Solutions to our customers.
We also took the opportunity to welcome several new members to the team, marking an exciting step forward as we continue to grow.
High-speed traffic management delivered by our teams across the UK’s strategic road network.
Our High Speed teams play a vital role in keeping the UK’s strategic road network moving safely and efficiently.
Working across motorways and high-speed roads, teams are delivering specialist traffic management day in, day out. Supporting major projects, protecting road users and keeping disruption to a minimum.
To support this, we’ve introduced our Focus 5. Five priorities that guide how we work every day. Safety. People. Customer. Consistency. Efficiency.
In High Speed environments, there’s no room for compromise. It’s about getting the basics right, planning properly, communicating clearly and working together to deliver safely and efficiently on every job.
We’re continuing to strengthen how we operate by improving consistency, sharing best practice and supporting our teams to perform at their best.
Our focus is clear:
l Our people are supported, equipped and ready to deliver
l Our customers receive a reliable, high-quality service
l Our teams are setting the standard across the network
This is what strong High Speed delivery looks like across the business.
EMCC is continuing to be utilised more widely across the business, supporting teams to deliver safer and more controlled working environments on the network.
In 2025 alone, EMCC recorded 12,725 vehicle passes, with just 79 incursions reported, demonstrating how effectively the system is preventing unsafe access to live worksites.
Since September 2023, EMCC has now monitored 40,675 vehicle passes and recorded 303 incursions. These figures highlight strong operational performance and the important role EMCC continues to play in improving safety for both our people and road users.
“You didn’t just solve the problem, you saved us.”
Things don’t always go to plan. What sets us apart is how we respond.
Thinking on your feet isn’t just a skill, it’s essential. It allows us to keep our customers moving, maintain trust, and deliver safe, effective solutions even when circumstances change.
A recent example of this came from Carl Armsworth, National Head of EMCC.
Following a routine safety check, a fault was identified on an EMCC vehicle. While the issue was quickly resolved, it meant the planned operation couldn’t go ahead as expected.
Rather than allowing this to impact the programme, Carl worked closely with the client to implement an alternative approach. He guided them through revised traffic management methods, clearly explained traffic flows, and supported them in communicating the solution back to their board.
This ensured the works could continue safely and without delay while the EMCC was brought back into operation.
The client’s response said it best: “You didn’t just solve the problem, you saved us.”
It’s a strong example of taking ownership, communicating openly when things change, and finding a way forward.
Because ultimately, turning challenges into solutions is about more than solving problems.
It’s about showing up for our customers when it matters most.
How we’re working together to deliver across Highway Solutions.
Highways Solutions brings together four specialist businesses, HBS, Highway Care, Roocroft and Metor, under the Ramudden Global UK family to deliver a complete approach to vehicle restraint systems (VRS) and road safety.
By working more closely together, we’re combining national capability with strong local expertise, helping us deliver more joined-up, consistent solutions across the UK and Ireland.
National Highways are currently carrying out essential maintenance on the seven bridges that carry the M6 over the Lune Gorge in Cumbria. HBS and Highway Care have recently collaborated to deliver barrier solutions alongside ChevronTM.
This is an exciting example of how we have come together as a group to find the optimal delivery solution for client Kier and maximise opportunity for Ramudden Global UK
Roocroft specified Highway Care’s Tertu TimberRail, as part of a four-month project on the A64. Tertu Timber Rail is a permanent vehicle restraint system (VRS), which combines the strength of a steel structure with the attractive appearance of a renewable timber exterior.
Roocroft installed a new safety barrier spanning three-and-a-half miles at Whitwell Duals to safely separate vehicles from objects like traffic signs, walls and telegraph poles which are at the side of the road. This included 675m of Tertu VRS, 10x P1 terminals and 32x P4 terminals.
As part of the wider Ramudden Global UK Group, this collaboration allows us to share knowledge, resource and expertise more effectively, strengthening how we support our customers and each other.
Each business keeps its own identity and regional strengths, but together we’re able to offer:
l Full lifecycle support across temporary and permanent VRS
l National coverage backed by local depots
l Shared technical expertise and engineering capability
l Better coordination across major projects
l Consistent standards, training and compliance
l Access to specialist knowledge across the group
l More tailored, engineered solutions
By working as one, we’re strengthening our position as a trusted partner while continuing to improve safety across the network for both our teams and road users.
During February and March, for four weeks, colleagues have been taking part in the We+ Wellness and Exercise Challenge, supporting each other to stay active and build healthy habits. Thank you to everyone who got involved and shared their workouts along the way. We’ve loved seeing the photos and updates from across the teams – here are just a few highlights!
Rolling out our digital platform and supporting safer operations on live sites.
The HRS team has been working hard behind the scenes to ensure everything is ready for our transition from MyWorkZones to the new global platform.
Over recent weeks, the Operations team has been collaborating closely with the Ramudden team to test how our equipment performs within the Global Platform environment.
This included a large-scale trial at the airfield within Newark Showground, involving many members of HRS and wider teams across the business.
We want to thank everyone that has been involved with testing for the global platform including the Chevron depots.
HRS achieved a major milestone during the A66 Scotch Corner to Brough closure in October 2025. The site deployed an impressive 53 Portable Site Alarms across a 15.4-mile closure in one night, the highest number of PSAs used on a single closure that year!
The Intellicone IPAWS system not only enhanced safety but also streamlined operations, reducing the need for over 90 operatives to just 48, while ensuring the closure was installed in 30 minutes.
The result? A safer, more efficient work environment that allowed nearly 1,000 trees to be cut during the project. Congratulations to the HRS team for this achievement.
“The Operations team has been collaborating closely with the Ramudden team to test how our equipment performs within the Global Platform environment.”
The results so far have been extremely positive. The system is performing well, and the teams involved have shared great feedback about the platform’s capabilities.
Everyone is now looking forward to the next phase to roll it out across the UK.
The installation of HRS’ Intellicone® Incursion Prevention and Warning System along with Intellitag® has resulted in increased safety on the network with a reduction in cost, carbon emissions and labour requirements due to a reduction in routine maintenance checks.
The A45 Westbound was planned to be closed nightly from the 8th to the 19th of September so resurfacing works along with civils and replacements of kerbs could be undertaken.
Due to the location of the closure the diversion route was 16.2 miles which would have needed to be manually checked 6 times a night from 20:00pm until 06:00am.
The HRS team evaluated the suitability of using Intellicone® IPAWS with Intellicam® on the main A45 Westbound Rushden Lakes closure and Intellitag® along the diversion route, knowing that we could demonstrate an overall cost, resource and carbon saving.
This Improved safety for the workforce and provided digital evidence of the required maintenance checks, moving the client towards a cost-effective event-based approach to site maintenance.
The client moved from 6 manual maintenance checks every 2 hours to 100% event-based. They could then deploy resources elsewhere and found the reduction in risk exposure to the workforce a huge benefit as
“By having Intellitag units on the diversion route, this provided a significant cost saving to the client. By only receiving two notifications of fallen signs for the duration, this meant a reduction in exposure on the network. As a result, we will be promoting the equipment to the Amey working group across the wider Amey areas. ”
Tony Sheehan, Amey MCI Schemes (Construction Manager)
they only needed to be deployed when the system alerted that there was a problem with a sign.
The client could log into the HRS online portal from anywhere and at any time to monitor the closure and diversion route.
During the closure they were notified twice by the Intellitags® of fallen signs. The signs were quickly rectified due to the timely response to the notification. The reactive visits to site resulted in lower carbon emissions.
The scheme was on for 10 shifts from the 8th to the 19th of September. By using Intellitag® on the diversion route the saving to the client was:
l 68-operative hours
l 1134 miles
l 100 litres of Diesel
l 768 kg of carbon
Our teams specialise in traffic management design, engineering and digital modelling.
Consilium Technical Services continues to strengthen its position as a trusted design engineering partner within the industry. Through collaboration, innovation and a commitment to developing talent, the team is supporting both the wider Ramudden Global UK group and key clients across the sector.
Recent milestones highlight the progress being made, from securing work with tier one clients to showcasing digital design capabilities and investing in people across the business.
Industry Milestones and Growth
Consilium recently achieved an important milestone by hosting a tier one client, securing a position on their supply chain and successfully completing its first request. This achievement reflects the professionalism of the team and marks an important step in Consilium’s journey to establish itself as a leading design engineering provider within the industry.
The operations team also played a key role in supporting the Ramudden Global UK Get Set for Growth event earlier this year.
For many involved, the event provided a new opportunity to engage directly with colleagues and industry partners. The team delivered a strong performance on the day, generating new enquiries and strengthening existing relationships while representing Consilium with professionalism and confidence.
Consilium continues to push forward with digital innovation.
The team recently delivered 3D digital imagery highlighting Highway Resource Solutions (HRS) products as part of its first scheme with the Strategic Design Framework (SDF). This work supports National Highways requirements while also demonstrating how collaboration within the group can drive safer and more innovative project delivery.
The team’s continued progress is supported by strong operational performance. Recent figures show a record-breaking month for the design team with 4,008 drawings completed, representing a 55.47% increase compared to the same month last year. Apprentices also contributed significantly to output, completing 857 drawings as part of their development within the team.
Following the success of recent engagement activity, Consilium has been invited to present at the upcoming Highway Traffic Management (HTM) supplier event.
This invitation provides an opportunity to showcase the team’s capabilities to a wider audience of industry professionals, strengthening relationships and raising awareness of Consilium’s design expertise.
Consilium is proud to support the growth of its people, with several internal promotions announced recently.
Lauren Griffiths has been appointed Operational Lead of the Network Team, while Alex Hope and Jason Williams have both been promoted to Team Leaders. These promotions reflect the team’s ambition to progress their careers and Consilium’s commitment to developing talent internally.
Consilium is also working alongside partners within the 12 Alliance Collaboration, including HTM and UTS, to organise an annual charity walk planned for June or July.
The event will provide an opportunity for teams across the collaboration to come together while raising funds and giving back to the community.

From supporting Tommy’s Sleep Out to celebrating team milestones, here’s what’s been happening across Class One.
On 12 March, Wullie, Managing Director of Class One Traffic Management, took part in Tommy’s Sleep Out, raising awareness and funds to support veterans experiencing homelessness.
Spending the night outdoors in temperatures as low as -2°C, Wullie experienced first-hand just how tough the conditions can be, and confirmed he’ll definitely need a better sleeping bag next time.
The challenge helps highlight the realities faced by many ex-service personnel across the UK, while raising vital funds to support those in need.
So far, over £1,500 has been raised, with donations still coming in.
A great effort for an important cause, and a strong example of giving back beyond the day-to-day work we do across the group.
It’s been a busy start to the year for Class One, with teams working across a range of projects throughout Scotland.
Continued demand across the region has seen the business recruiting and investing in additional resource, helping to support delivery on the ground and maintain the high standards expected by our customers.
Class One continues to stay busy across Scotland, with ongoing recruitment and investment to support demand across projects.
It’s great to see continued growth across the business, with teams expanding and operations strengthening across depots.
Know someone who’d be a good fit for Class One? We’d love to hear from them.
Contact Kayleigh.Ashton@ramuddenglobaluk.com
There have also been some great milestones across the Class One team, with long service achievements highlighting the experience and commitment across the business.
A big congratulations to Callum Coull, Davy Wilson who celebrate 10 years this year and Simon Phillips who just celebrated 20 years with the business.
It’s always good to see people progressing and building long-term careers within the group.

At Ramudden Global UK, safety is our business - and the Behavioural Safety Programme is a key part of how we continue to strengthen that culture across our operations.
This programme is all about shifting mindsets. We’re building a safety culture where actions, decisions, and leadership all pull in the same direction: safer, healthier, more efficient workplaces.
Our teams explore how behaviour drives outcomes, how culture is shaped on the ground, and the practical tools that help us influence safety in a positive way. From Managers to Frontline staff, everyone plays a part and everyone has the power to make a difference.
To date, 425 colleagues have completed the programme, representing over 2,550 hours of dedicated safety training. This investment reflects our commitment to ensuring everyone has the tools, awareness and confidence to make safe decisions every day. We recently reached a significant milestone at Thatcham depot, where 100% of operatives, supervisors and managers have now completed the training.
We’re not just talking about safety. We’re living it, leading it, and raising the bar across Ramudden Global. And with more courses on the way, we’re keeping that momentum strong!

Building a more resilient, efficient and forward-thinking approach to delivery across the network
We recently brought together teams from across our business, including Class One Scotland, Consilium Technical Services, Ramudden Urban Solutions and HRS, alongside our client Amey, to reinforce our shared commitment to working as one team.
The session focused on aligning with the jointly signed Supply Chain Charter, which sets out clear expectations around safety, collaboration, innovation and responsible delivery. The Charter
provides a clear framework for how we work together, ensuring that safety, compliance and quality remain at the forefront of everything we deliver, with a shared commitment to making sure everyone goes home safe and well.
Bringing multiple organisations together in one space created a valuable opportunity to strengthen relationships and align on shared priorities. It allowed for open and honest discussion around how we
continue to improve the way we work, while ensuring a consistent approach across projects, regions and teams, with customers at the heart of every decision.
The discussion focused not only on shared principles, but how these are applied day-to-day across live projects and operational environments. It also created an opportunity to challenge existing ways of working and identify where we can continue to improve as a collective.
A key theme throughout the session was the importance of a true “one team” approach. This goes beyond collaboration in principle. It is about creating a culture of openness, trust and shared accountability, where teams actively support one another and collaborate across boundaries to deliver the best possible outcomes. By working in this way, we are better able to minimise disruption to the travelling public while maintaining safe and efficient operations across the network.
Sustainability and innovation also formed an important part of the conversation. There is a continued focus on reducing environmental impact, as well as investing in smarter, safer and more efficient ways of working. Through collaboration, we can share knowledge, adopt best practice and drive meaningful improvements across the network.
The discussion also reinforced the importance of transparency, trust and doing the right thing across every level of delivery. It also highlighted the importance of consistency. By aligning to a common framework and set of expectations, we can ensure that delivery remains high quality regardless of location or project complexity. This joinedup approach supports stronger performance, clearer communication and better outcomes for clients and communities alike.
Sessions like this play an important role in turning shared commitments into practical action. They provide a platform to listen, challenge and improve, ensuring that we continue to evolve as a connected and highperforming supply chain.
By continuing to work closely together, we are building a more resilient, efficient and forwardthinking approach to delivery across the network, underpinned by a shared commitment to collaboration.
“Bringing multiple organisations together in one space created a valuable opportunity to strengthen relationships and align on shared priorities.”
Safer roads. Stronger communities. A more sustainable future.
At Ramudden Global UK, our purpose is to get people home safely every day. Alongside this, we recognise our responsibility to the future. By embedding sustainability into how we design, plan and deliver our services, we are helping build infrastructure that is safer, cleaner and more resilient.
Sustainability is not a separate initiative. It is part of how we operate as a responsible business.
Our Sustainability Policy focuses on:
l Reducing carbon emissions

l Supporting the health and wellbeing of our people
l Delivering social value in the communities we serve
l Maintaining strong governance and transparency
We work closely with our employees, customers and supply chain partners to continually improve and deliver meaningful progress.
Our work takes place in communities across the UK, so we focus on delivering initiatives that are locally meaningful. This includes creating employment opportunities, supporting apprenticeships, working with schools and community organisations, and partnering with local suppliers.
Sustainability is reflected in everyday actions across the business, from reducing waste and working efficiently to supporting colleagues and local communities.
Employees are also encouraged to take part in volunteering and fundraising initiatives, supported by Group policies.
By embedding sustainability into everything we do, we continue to build a safer, more responsible and resilient business for the future.
On the ground supporting events nationwide
It’s been an exceptionally busy start to the year across our Events teams, with multiple depots working together to support a wide range of high-profile events nationwide.
From Premier League and European fixtures at Nottingham Forest, to major running events including the Leicester 10k, Nottingham 10k and Cambridge Half Marathon, the team has delivered consistently across both sporting and large-scale public events.
Our long-standing partnership with the Run For All series continues to go from strength to strength, now spanning over 10 years and covering 14 races annually, from 10ks through to full marathons.
We’ve also marked our first year delivering the Bath Half Marathon as part of the London Marathon contract, alongside continued support of the Reading Half Marathon, an event we’ve successfully delivered for more than 20 years.
Beyond sporting events, the team has also supported industry and specialist events, including the Bath Drone Show, part of a growing national series following successful events in Chelmsford and Windsor last year.
These highlight just a small portion of the major events and signage operations already delivered in the early part of 2026, with significant planning, coordination and collaboration underpinning every project.
The team also exhibited at the Event Production Show at London Excel, where they showcased our Events Division and Urban Barrier systems.
The calendar continues to build, with a strong mix of returning favourites and new opportunities on the horizon.
We’re pleased to be returning to the Royal Norfolk Show for the first time since 2011, following a recommendation from the Suffolk Show, a valued client of over 26 years. Having previously delivered this event from the early 1990s through to 2011, it’s a proud moment to be back.
We also continue our long-standing support of the RAF Cosford Air Show, the UK’s last remaining RAF air show, a partnership that has been in place for over a decade.
A standout addition to this year’s programme is the Bluebird K7 commemorative event at Coniston Water, marking the final run of the vessel in 1967 and honouring the legacy of Donald Campbell. This will be a unique and significant event to support.
Burghley Horse Trials remains one of our flagship events, delivered since 1987. With the exception of the COVID-19 cancellations, there has been continuous involvement since the contract was first secured, reflecting the strength of the relationship and the pride taken in its delivery year after year.
From collaboration and innovation to depot-led improvements, here’s what’s been happening across the group.

A strong example of collaboration in action and the impact of smarter, technology-led delivery.
Championing Inclusive Design in Traffic Management
We’ve also been shortlisted for the CIHT Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Award for our entry, Back to Basics: Redefining Temporary Traffic Management Through Inclusive Design.
Based on our work with TfL and Michael Barratt, the submission highlights how we are evolving our Urban Solutions offer through more inclusive and considered design.
A great opportunity to showcase how we are shaping safer, more accessible environments for all road users.
It’s not every day Tower Bridge closes, but when it does, it provides a unique opportunity to trial and showcase innovative solutions.
During essential maintenance works, Priority TM trialled Intellicone® IPAWS and Intellicam® to provide an additional layer of protection for the workforce.

Recently, members of our Senior Leadership Team travelled to Frankfurt to attend Ramudden Global Days 2026, where this year’s theme, Safer. Stronger. Together., brought colleagues from across the group together to share insight, progress and ambition.
During the event, Adam Caulfield took to the stage to talk about how this theme is being brought to life across the UK. From strengthening collaboration across our businesses to delivering safer, smarter solutions for our customers, the UK presentation highlighted the meaningful ways we are contributing to the wider group vision.
It was a valuable opportunity to connect with colleagues from across Ramudden Global, share best practice, and reinforce our collective commitment to continuous improvement and delivering excellence across every part of the business.
At our Salford depot, a simple idea has made a big impact.
Following a suggestion from one of the operatives, a new suggestion box was introduced in the main kitchen, open to both ops and office teams. It provides a straightforward, anonymous way for people to share ideas, raise concerns, and help improve the way we work.
The box is reviewed weekly, with updates shared on actions taken. Already, several suggestions have been implemented, including:
l Yard layout redesign to improve operational flow
l Introduction of horn alerts at warehouse entry and exit points
l Installation of a vending machine in the main kitchen
It’s a great example of how small changes can lead to meaningful improvements.
If you think something similar could work at your depot, now is the time to take the lead and make it happen.
Salford depot has also seen a strong increase in observation reporting, helping to drive improvements in safety, efficiency and operational standards.
Observation reports play a key role in:
l Recovering damaged equipment
l Identifying trends and recurring issues
l Improving processes and standards
l Strengthening safety awareness across teams
The continued rise in submissions highlights the engagement across the business:
l 2024: 160 observations
l 2025: 307 observations
l 2026 (so far): 137 observations
Salford’s proactive approach shows what’s possible when teams take ownership and stay engaged.
We’d encourage all depots to build on this momentum and continue using observation reports to drive improvements locally.
Well done to Chris Davis, Group Key Account Director & EMCC Business Sales Lead, who has recently achieved his ISO 9001 Lead Auditor accreditation.
This is a challenging qualification that takes real time and commitment. It involves a detailed understanding of quality management systems, alongside intensive training, practical auditing work, and passing a series of assessments.
The process covers:
l Understanding ISO 9001 standards in detail
l Planning and carrying out audits
l Reviewing compliance and identifying improvements
l Producing clear audit reports
It’s a great achievement and strengthens our capability across the business when it comes to quality and continuous improvement.
Safety standards have been further strengthened with the installation of defibrillators across a number of our Northern low-speed depots.
Units have now been installed at Salford, Leeds, Nuneaton and Telford, helping ensure our teams are better prepared to respond in an emergency.
A positive addition across our depots as we continue to prioritise safety on and off the road.
The Lune Gorge project has won the Ramudden Global Award for Customer Excellence.
