Longleat Safari Park requested LMS Highways to white line their lion enclosure this month. 4 miles of centre line later, it turned out to be a few interesting days out for the lads. The lions didn’t get to watch, but the wolves did, needless to say the lads got to hop it quickly into the truck on occasion. A big thank you to the rangers for looking after our staff!

MMax achieved another 3km of Joint Repair on the A9 in adverse conditions. This is MMAX’s first winter and despite initial teething problems with the cold weather, the work was successfully carried out. Commendation is due to the dedication of our fantastic Joint Repair crews working under difficult conditions. MMax is now gearing up in anticipation of a very busy spring 2012.

LMS Highways have decided to host a demonstration day in the spring 2012 (date as yet undecided). The day will be an open day at our new premises in Newton Abbot, providing an opportunity for those interested to see Mmax in action as well as demonstrations of other new cutting edge highways products and technologies and our take on traditional methods. We will be sending out more information after Christmas, but to register your interest please click here and we will keep you updated.

LMS Highways has joined the Building Register, you can now find us easily and all our necessary information for downloading including Health and Safety, Quality Assurance, Risk Assessments and Method Statements. Happy hunting!

MMAX has been out again with 14000m of joint repair to do on the A449. The machine application of screed repairs has proved very popular with MAC contractors and county councils where speed of output and operative safety are of paramount importance. Coupling this with outputs of between 600 and 1200 linear meters per hour and the ability to carry out repairs in all weather conditions and it’s easy to see why MMAX is approaching 50,000m of repairs in its first season of operation.

LMS Highways have provided 1.5 million people with parking facilities this month as the Westfield Shopping Centre, Stratford City next door to the Olympic Village, opened its doors for the first time. LMS were asked to line the car park in preparation for this big day.

The second phase of Devon primary schools, playground markings is about to commence. With 29 schools completed in phase one and 32 schools to do in phase two, we would like to remind our customers that preformed thermoplastic markings are a great, colourful, long lasting feature in any playground, but they are weather dependant when laying.

The MMAX Joint Repair Extruder is back out at work on the M6, Birmingham Box. With 11300m of joint repair to do, our revolutionary MMAX lorry can achieve outputs of between 600-1200 linear meters per hour, depending on size of crack. In a perfect world, how many shifts would we need?
