A bit about Hatton Traffic Management:

Hatton Traffic Management is a leading provider of temporary traffic management services along our nation’s roads. We install the safety system around highway work sites to keep workers and the pub-lic protected. These systems will range anything from portable traffic lights in the city through to lane closures on the motorways.

Hatton has developed from a small family firm in the Northeast of England 40 years ago into a major force across England and Scotland within the highways, rail, and utilities sectors, working closely with our clients, as a key part of their integrated supply chain.

Over the past 8 years particularly, we have grown year on year from a turnover of £5million to £20+million in the coming year. We have won contracts with major Tier 1 contractors (Costain, Skanska, Balfour Beatty etc) as well as long-term frameworks with major utility companies during this period. We have a significant forward-looking order book already in place, and many exciting tender opportunities in the pipeline.
