The Challenge

Park Square is a high-traffic city centre junction shared by vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians Existing crossing points offered limited physical protection for pedestrians The solution needed to integrate with existing traffic signals, street furniture and road markings Minimal disruption was essential in a busy city centre location

The Solution

Rosehill traffic islands installed at pedestrian crossing points around the Park Square junction Islands adapted to work alongside existing traffic signals, bollards and road markings Surface-mounted installation avoided excavation and kept disruption to a minimum Solid recycled rubber construction provides durability and impact resistance in a high-traffic environment
