If you have a scheme that requires auditing or would like more information about our road safety audit service, then please contact Lorna Charles on 024 7669 0900. Alternatively, you can request a quotation through our website.

Last year TMS were proud to have audited almost 700 different schemes across the UK. We have audited schemes up and down the country, no matter how big or small.

We have worked on schemes which range from the Silvertown Tunnel project in London through to large housing developments to simple T-Junctions. Our team have carried out road safety audits at all stages, from Stage 1 through to Stage 4.

We might be based in Coventry, but our experienced road safety auditors are centrally located to carry out work all over the country. We travel to all parts of the UK and in 2021 we conducted work in Scotland, Wales, Devon, Norfolk, Kent and everywhere in between!

Below is a map showing the places we carried out audits during 2021.

We are immensely proud to have worked on hundreds of exciting schemes throughout the UK.  Below are some examples of the type of schemes we have carried out.

Our Technical Director, Harminder Aulak, said:

“We have a very experienced team of Engineers with varying backgrounds, many of whom started their careers in Local Government, gaining knowledge in Road Safety Engineering, Transport Planning, Traffic Management and Road Safety Education. This knowledge is applied when carrying out audits on all types of schemes, ranging from complex grade separated junctions, motorway and dual carriageway improvements, through to development accesses and pedestrian crossings. 

We are also flexible and can accommodate short timescales if audits are required urgently to meet planning deadlines. Our clients value our independence, expert knowledge and ability to complete the work within agreed timescales.”

In 2021 alone, we audited in the vast majority of the regions within England, working with different companies, ranging from house builders to local authorities; wherever we are needed we will go.

The client was a Civil and Structural Engineering Company, involved in infrastructure design, development planning, geotechnical and surveying work, with a varied and wide client base. They wanted our professional advice regarding road safety around a an open shared space area known as the “The Square” and a pond feature. The Audit Stage was Pre-3, with the scheme nearing completion.

Concerns about road safety were raised by the Client surrounding a pond within the development, which will collect rainwater via an infiltration basin. The pond was larger than normally encountered during safety audits. The development also featured a large open shared space area known as the “The Square.” Concerns were raised here about undisciplined parking, vehicle speeds and navigation by pedestrians and cyclists.

After careful analysis, the Audit Team found the pond did not need any improvements, as the ground profile, distance from the edge of carriageway and anticipated vehicle speeds deemed the risk to be in the low and tolerable region. However, safety improvements for pedestrians were suggested as the pond were more of a risk to them.

At “The Square” a way to slow vehicles was recommended, some suggestions made were landscaping and street furniture. If parking was required, a more formalised and confined arrangement was recommended. Otherwise, the prevention of parking within the shared space area could be considered, with the use of landscaping and suitably positioned street furniture to create a pedestrian only area.

Harminder Aulak who was the Audit Team Leader for the scheme quoted, “It is always pleasing when our clients come to us first to get our expert opinion on road safety matters as they arise during construction. Sometimes these issues are not easily identifiable on drawings during design stages, and instead potential issues become more apparent as construction progresses. With this scheme, we used our skills in road safety engineering, risk assessment and collision analysis to suggest improvements, ensuring scheme was safe for everyone.” Our client valued our input and we received good feedback during discussions at the site visit.
