The specialist has already started to work with authorities to install markings for more cycle lanes and social distancing footway demarcation in line with measures identified by the Department for Transport.

Martin Webb WJ Group Operational Director said: “We are in a strong position to provide the resources, products and expertise to rapidly deliver temporary, permanent and specialist markings to help support these active transport schemes.”

WJ are employing a range of high performance thermoplastics, paints and preformed markings for permanent solutions but also advising on temporary markings with tape, self-adhesive studs and their innovative Applied Media floor signage to create more flexibility.

For some time, the Applied Media floor graphic system has been approved for use by TfL on the London Underground, used for London Pride rainbow crossings and recently for the NHS Nightingale Hospital bus shuttle and social distancing measures on the Docklands Light Railway.
