Consulting engineers, Morgan Tucker, has joined forces with Peek Traffic Limited to provide a one stop solution on traffic technology and management schemes to clients in both the public and private sector.

The joint project has been branded SignalPoint and it will combine Morgan Tucker's engineering and project management expertise with Peek's traffic technology products, systems and services.  SignalPoint will be unveiled for the first time at the JCT Traffic Signal Symposium & Exhibition at The University of Nottingham on 17 and 18 September.

SignalPoint will provide a complete and cost effective solution to traffic signalisation and management, solving traffic flow problems with an evolutionary one stop approach.  The scheme will make sourcing and management of schemes effective and efficient, from initial feasibility and preparation of budgets right through to the administration and commissioning of traffic signal technology and management schemes.

The main objective of SignalPoint is to provide clients with a clear and easy solution to the delivery on technological schemes.  A client can choose to use the SignalPoint service from concept right through to commissioning or it can 'pick and choose' the specific services that may be required.

This unique approach removes the need for many organisations to be involved in the development of a scheme and so reducing the opportunity for error or duplication.

Matthew Tucker of Morgan Tucker said: "Our clients have full control over any projects delivered by SignalPoint and they choose the range and amount of work that is undertaken by the SignalPoint team.  Budgets can be agreed at an early stage for the 'whole life' of the project from feasibility, design and procurement right through to implementation.  The combination of these usually separate areas of work into one service means that budget control is significantly more efficient and accurate.

This project is a very significant development for the industry.  By combining our expertise with the experience and skill at Peek we can offer a new product that is cost effective and will save companies valuable time and resources by removing the need to procure part solutions from multiple suppliers."

Matthew adds, "Peek and Morgan Tucker have a vast amount of experience in our industry and we have developed a strong partnership that will mean significant improvements to the delivery of projects can be achieved."

Peek Traffic Limited is one of the UK's leading suppliers of products, systems and services to the traffic industry.

Jeremy Cowling, commercial director at Peek says: "We are delighted to be working with Morgan Tucker on a project of this scale and one that is so unique.  It will provide a distinctive opportunity to change the way that local authorities and the highways agencies can plan and manage traffic signal and technology schemes.  Together with Morgan Tucker we can offer a seamless service providing our customers with a complete and cost effective solution in which they can have total trust and confidence."
