Local authorities are encouraged to set out an integrated strategy for reducing car use and improving children’s safety on the journey to school.

Glasdon can help schools and local authorities to achieve these targets by providing products to clearly mark and delineate walking routes, cycle routes and traffic calming schemes.

Walking Routes

Glasdon bollards have large areas for personalisation with your “Safe Routes to School” logo or message. They are available in a wide range of colours, styles and finishes to fit in with existing or new schemes. Reflectorised banding can be added to make the bollards more visible in bad weather or poor light.

Cycle Routes

Cycle routes need to be clearly marked so that cyclists, pedestrians and motorists can easily identify them.

The Glasdon ENSIGN^™ and MINI-ENSIGN^™ bollards take signage on both sides enabling clear signing for pedestrians and other road users in both directions. Bollards can be numbered or banded with retroreflective banding to highlight junctions or delineate routes.

Traffic Calming

Glasdon bollards and hazard marking posts can be used very effectively on build-outs, chicanes, road narrowings, crossings and junctions. The ENSIGN bollard is ideal for signing 20mph zones.

Glasdon Manufacturing Limited produces a wide range of products that are ideal for School Travel Plan schemes, including Cycle Parking, Waiting Shelters & Canopies, Notice Boards and Seating. For more information please visit the Glasdon Manufacturing Limited website.
