It’s all about Over Height Protection today at Skanska’s Zero Accident Forum. Gareth and Heather are predominantly talking about Solar Gate’s #INSTABOOM GS6 protection solution. This solar hybrid portable laser detection unit identifies any over height vehicle from up to 6m away. We can help your site be accident free and also carbon free. #zeroaccidentforum #netzero
They think it's all Solar... It is now. I'm at MK Dons stadium with Heather Redman for Skanska's 84th #zeroaccidentforum event. If you're here, why not pop into the giant main ballroom to see us and our game-changing, award-winning, solar-powered Instaboom barrier and GS6 Overhead Protection Kit? If you do, we promise there'll be no football puns or clichés ... at the end of the day ... obviously. Football ... it's a honey old game.

Today is 'Dave Day'! Why, you ask? Well, because David Gammon has the dubious honor of celebrating 15 incredible years with us! Dave isn’t just our Installation Manager, he is a top engineer and exceptionally skilled. Dave is also the office elastic band fight champion. (Rumor has it he’s undefeated.) Dave’s claim to fame? He invented the #SOSEC 600 (though we suspect he’s hiding more legendary achievements). Dave is one of life's lovely humans. Happy Dave Day! Dave - we are lucky to have you!

That’s a wrap, Highways UK! We couldn’t be happier seeing our creative vision come to life. Massive shoutout to our madcap team – the most wonderful bunch of legends around. You outdid yourselves, folks! We demoed the #INSTABOOM Go so many times we have new dance move. Really interesting to see conversation start about the #SOSEC 200+ with a 7m barrier arm - really looking forward to seeing this on a site very soon. Scarlett R., did a wonderful job of raising awareness in the industry of employing people with conviction. Can't wait to hear more at the events starting next week. And the bees! Well, they’re the perfect reflection of who we are – busy, hardworking, and caring. Nothing sums up our passion more than these little legends.
