Eight Chapter 8 compliant traffic management vehicles sourced, converted and delivered in twelve weeks for a major motorway maintenance contract.
A highways maintenance contractor had secured a significant motorway maintenance contract on the M62 corridor, covering overnight carriageway works, pothole remediation and lane-closure operations across a multi-year programme.
The contract required eight fully equipped traffic management vehicles on-site before works could commence. The client had no existing TM fleet and a twelve-week window from contract award to mobilisation.
Vanadam took on full procurement and conversion management from the initial briefing call. We established the specification with the client’s traffic management supervisor, confirmed the Chapter 8 requirements and identified the Iveco Daily 72C18 chassis cab as the right base vehicle for the operation — suitable for crash cushion mounting, with the GVW and load capacity required for a full TM fit-out.
We sourced eight matched units through our UK supplier network and simultaneously coordinated with two specialist TM conversion workshops to split the build programme and compress the timeline. A single Vanadam account manager oversaw every conversion, enforcing a consistent specification across all eight vehicles so the fleet would operate as a uniform, interchangeable unit.
All vehicles were delivered to the client’s compound in the M62 corridor region, with handover documentation, operator packs and compliance certification provided for each unit.
We won a major motorway contract and needed a TM fleet from scratch within twelve weeks. Vanadam delivered all eight vehicles ahead of schedule, fully compliant and ready to work. That reliability is why we’ll use them again.
