Statistics show serious injuries and deaths are occurring each year from collisions
with non-passive sign post supports. In 2004 the UK Highways Agency introduced TA89/04
Use of Passively Safe Supports for Signs to allow an alternative to the traditional
structural steel poles and protective safety barrier. TA89/05 also introduced a size
limit for steel sign supports of 89mm dia. with a wall thickness of 3.2mm thick to
set a size limit that could be placed on the highway without the protection of barrier
unless passively safe.
Following more than two years of development Varley and Gulliver
successfully completed the approval of single and multi-legged passive post designs
to EN 12767 at MIRA test facility in the UK.
Varley and Gulliver has taken the passive
revolution into a new era with its anti-climb and environmentally friendly passive
aluminium sign support Hi Mast.
