Case study: Supporting safe and efficient traffic management on the Queens Drive scheme

GTM has successfully supported the delivery of the Queens Drive (Liverpool) project through the provision of specialist traffic management solutions to help ensure works were completed safely and efficiently.

The challenge

The scheme required a robust traffic management approach to facilitate essential works while minimising disruption to road users and maintaining a safe working environment.

As part of a high-value project, planning and coordination were essential in ensuring the right controls were in place throughout.

Our approach

Working alongside Cadent and Border Group, GTM helped coordinate:

Rhino barrier systems
Lane closures
On-site supervision
Traffic management support

Barrier installation, supervision and lane closure activities took place on 25 July, with barrier hire remaining in place until completion at the end of August 2026.

Delivering added value

In addition to the physical traffic management measures, evidence and timestamp records were obtained from Border Group to support client audit and compliance requirements.

Outcomes

Maintained traffic flow and minimised disruption to road users
Successfully installed and managed Rhino barrier systems and lane closures in line with programme requirements
Supported compliance with client audit requirements through the provision of timestamped records and installation evidence
Delivered a high-quality traffic management solution on a major infrastructure scheme while maintaining a safe working environment for operatives and the public
