Here's what we have been up to at TMO recently...
New Depot Fully Operational
Our new depot based at Little Staughton near St Neots has now opened its doors for trading. The first jobs left the yard officially on Monday morning and will help us serve our new contractual obligations in the Cambridgeshire & Bedfordshire region, as well as allowing us to continue to push further afield with our coverage.
The depot will host the latest in traffic light technology as well as our usual stock of traffic, pedestrian and event management equipment. This fifth operational location has opened due to our ongoing commitment to service to our clients who are increasingly asking us to cover other geographical areas of their business, with us often taking those areas from nearby competitors.
TMO Highways achieve 100% Achilles audit scores once again
We are delighted to announce that we have once again obtained top marks for our Achilles UVDB audit which was undertaken at the end of August 2023. This is the second time in 3 years that we have seen 100%’s across all aspects of this industry respected accreditation and is testament to the hard work and dedication of our skilled team.
We welcomed the Achilles auditor to our head office for a 2 day audit which covered, Safety, Health, Environment, Quality (SHEQ) management systems and Corporate Social Responsibility(CSR). By undertaking the assessment process our customers can see our commitment and ability in achieving top marks in all those areas.
TMO Highways recommended for ISO14001 for another 12 months
Following our annual visit from BSI we are happy that we have once again retained our ISO14001 accreditation. During the 5 day visit we showcased our commitments to reducing our impact on the environment whilst still being able to deliver our high standards that our clients expect from us.
Delivering traffic management across East Anglia and London means we clock up a lot of miles and whilst the electric vehicle technology isn’t quite where it needs to be to run a fleet of 40 flatbeds across such a vast area we do still invest in other areas of business where we can.
Sign off success…
Chris Pearson one of our March ’23 trainees has successfully completed the TMO Highways training programme and is now signed off.
Chris has become the first of his class to pass all 6 of his sign off audits, complete his LANTRA T1/T2 classroom and then go on to successfully get signed off on his live site assessments.
Darren Bailey our lead surveyor / auditor has overseen Chris’ audits and we quick to praise the desire to learn and passion for perfection that Chris possesses.
It only took one meeting with Chris to see that he possessed the exact qualities that we are looking for here at TMO. He was personable, hard working and was hungry to succeed. It was a real pleasure watching him develop and each time I went out to sign him off it was clear that he had picked up the TMO way very fast. He will go on to be a very good operative here at TMO, hopefully for a very long time.
Chris is one of 15 new trainees we have taken on at TMO Highways in 2023. These trainees are expanding our ever growing team of traffic management operatives across East Anglia and London. We have been blessed with the 2023 crop and others are just behind Chris in terms of their sign-off progress. With the upcoming opening of the St Neots depot we will continue to blend experienced operatives alongside new trainees to help service our clients needs.
