Milestone deploy Stamp it Out #thinkrespect signs across Botley bypass scheme

Safer Highways member Milestone Infrastructure have become the latest contractor to adopt the Stamp it Out zero tolerance of roadworker abuse signage across their Botley bypass scheme.

Milestone Infrastructure is delighted to support the stamp it out campaign and will be installing signage across all of its civil engineering projects where roadworkers are interfacing with members of the public. The aim is to enforce, educate and report all incidents to tackle this on-going and growing issue.”

The signs, developed as part of the industry led Stamp it Out campaign have been designed by Nuneaton Signs as a part of the industry's campaign to not only illustrate to our workforce that, as employers, we do not tolerate abuse but also to provide a visual deterrent to road users that as an industry we truly embody an ethos that protection of our people is our number one priority.

The signs have been deployed across the whole of the Botley bypass scheme following an incident where shots were fired at operatives from a member of the public with an air rifle.

Speaking about the implementation on the project, Kevin Robinson, Project Director for Stamp it Out said,

"What can I say apart from thank you, to the dedicated individuals at Milestone and especiallyJames Poole, Project Driector on the scheme, who have taken the ball and truly run with it with regards to the signs."

"To see the programme being truly taken to heart by some of our own and indeed driven by the supply chain is truly humbling as we strive to make the conditions under which those who work on our public highways better day on day is something I can only applaud."
