Composite Road Plates As An Alternative To Steel Road Plates

When digging trenches across a roadway as part of road works, utility installation or construction project the most frequent solution to cover up trenches is steel plates. These require specialist lifting equipment and are difficult to transport and store. Our alternative solution is the composite road plate system.

The Composite Road Plate system from Oxford Plastics is the new approach to solving this problem. Only two men are required to deploy this and everything needed to cover trenches over typical roads can easily be stored on a single pallet.

No fixings are needed on the inner pieces as they use a built in pin system to lock them into place.  No messy cold tarmac, awkward fixings or wasted time!

Each inner section comes complete with the pins (3 blocks and 14 pins) so that you can deploy them straight away.

Some other advantages of the Composite Road Plate system are:

• The surface is anti-slip.
• Very little noise compared to clanging steel plates.
• Increased safety during deployment due to much lower weight.

Both the inner and end sections of the composite road plate system are available to buy from Start Traffic here: Composite Road Plate System.
