Road Safety Services was formed in 1983 to facilitate the need for a company that specialised in the supply and implementation of road and pedestrian safety equipment.

Our traffic management service is well known for providing the best possible safety and legislation compliance and instils the greatest of confidence with local authorities and emergency services through our thorough approach and highly qualified staff.

RSS provides an excellent service allied to highly effective delivery with a view to providing real, tangible results. We work with our clients from the beginning building a service that delivers against their objectives and creating a lasting impression long after the works have finished. We pride ourselves on being able to build long standing relationships with our clients through our commitment to quality, safety and the ability to exceed expectations on everything we do.

Our services are used on everything from small community street parties and gala processions through to marathons and international long distance triathlons requiring the closure and management of up 80 miles of public roads.

When you employ RSS to carry out any form of service we have the right team members on hand to provide accurate advice. We have been dealing with third sector partners across the country for over three decades and know what is required to enable a smooth dialogue to be formed and maintained from build-up through to completion.

Our documentation is of the highest standard, the Traffic Management Plans and Health and Safety Plans are all produced to provide a clear understanding of what is required of not only ourselves but all other parties involved in the works.
