This included the replacement of roundabouts with signalised intersections. Additionally Peachey Road, Ormeau was required to provide safe pedestrian access to the adjacent Ormeau Shopping Centre.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vcex_heading text=”Project Design Brief” tag=”h2″ font_weight=”semibold” font_size=”1.154em” css=”.vc_custom_1534997838718{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1678412909802{padding-bottom: 15px !important;}”]Designers faced several constraints around existing levels, which required the surface water runoff to be efficiently drained to prevent puddles. The drainage system needed to be roadworthy but safe for pedestrians and cyclists.[/vc_column_text][vcex_heading text=”ACO’s Solution” tag=”h2″ font_weight=”semibold” font_size=”1.154em” css=”.vc_custom_1534997885619{margin-bottom: 15px !important;}”][vc_column_text]
The versatility of the TraffikDrain system enables both large and small inlet grates to be installed in the channel. The smaller inlet, Heelsafe®Anti-Slip grate, ensures a safe passage for pedestrians, prams and cyclists.
TraffikDrain’s compact design enables it to fit neatly in the shoulder of the carriageway.
Anti-shunt lugs ensure grates remain firmly in place and are not dislodged when accidently trafficked by wayward vehicles.
