Road Plate
Product description
The road plate has been designed to provide a safe means of maintaining traffic flow, during excavation work on roads, where reinstatement of the excavation would be inappropriate at that time. The product is designed to allow the passage of most vehicles including HGVs up to the normal weight restrictions. It is important that the recommended installation procedures are followed to ensure both safety and correct usage.
Our road plate measures 1400mm x 1200mm and weighs 47kg.
It is designed to cover trench excavations of up to 700 mm.
