Where safety never stops
SG helps highways and infrastructure teams improve safety, manage traffic and keep projects moving. For two decades, we've continued to innovate, developing practical off-grid technology that protects workers, reduces disruption and supports safer, more efficient worksites.
From portable barriers and temporary traffic signals to connected site technology, access control and overheight protection, our solutions are designed for real-world highway operations, including haul routes and active construction corridors, and trusted on National Highways projects. With National Highways targeting zero emission plant and compounds by 2030, we also handle EV charging design, installation and management, so that's one less requirement to source separately before deadline day.
Built to be reliable, mobile and easy to deploy, SG technology helps teams respond quickly without unnecessary complexity, downtime or reliance on fixed power.

"MVIS were able to supply and erect 4 CCTV cameras to the A51, Clifton Bridge. This assisted Highways England's East Midlands Regional Operations Centre in proactively managing any incidents which may have occurred on or around the bridge whilst essential maintenance works were ongoing. The swift delivery and installation of the CCTV cameras ensured the Operations had visual of the bridge for the foreseeable future which is an essential tool for the Operations Centre."
James Armstrong — Highways England
"Introducing INSTABOOM™ solar barriers across our contracts has significantly improved safety by removing a person with a static barrier and having INSTABOOM™ controlled by the machine operators, ensuring peoples' safety across our sites."
Mike Omond — Balfour Beatty
"This new, simple, but extremely effective solution took the Solar Gates team an incredible 2 weeks from concept to delivery. The GS6 INSTABOOM™ is a game changer to over height protection on our highways sites."
