... the introduction of the marker posts and cone sleeves will help to reduce the risk and ultimately save lives
Andrew Sharp
A-one+ team manager

October 2010

A-one+ won two prestigious awards at The Mineral Products Association’s (MPA) Annual Health and Safety Awards in October 2010.

The submission included work on developing the overhead cable marker posts and cone sleeves as well as detailing the recent ‘Look Up Look Out’ awareness campaign highlighting the risks of working near overhead electric power lines. The submission included a short video made by Halcrow's corporate communications team.

A-one – a joint venture between Halcrow and Colas – has been operating strategic road network services in the north east of England (Area 14) since its inception in 2003. This £115m contract was successfully re-bid in early 2010 by A-one+, a joint venture between Halcrow, Colas and Costain, and will continue for a further five years.
