Barnstaple College: Back to School in Style
When we were approached to remark Petroc College Barnstaple to refresh their car parks and roadway markings, we understood the assignment completely. With students and staff returning in September, it was crucial that the campus was not only looking its best but was also safe and well-organised. At Elite Markings Ltd, we take pride in our work, and this project was no exception.
The college grounds were in desperate need of attention. Years of heavy use had faded the existing lines, making it difficult for drivers to navigate and park efficiently. Our team arrived on site, ready to tackle the challenge head-on. The project involved a complete refresh of all the parking bays, ensuring they were crisp and clearly defined. This small change makes a huge difference in maximizing parking space and preventing frustrating parking disputes.
We didn’t just stop at the car park. We also revamped all the crucial roadway markings throughout the campus. This included double yellow lines to clearly delineate no-parking zones, ensuring emergency access routes remained clear. We also paid special attention to all the crossing points, making sure they were highly visible for pedestrian safety, especially with the influx of students on foot. Finally, all the junction markings were renewed, providing clear guidance for drivers and helping to maintain a smooth flow of traffic.
For this project, we chose to use thermoplastic screed, a high-quality material known for its exceptional durability and longevity. Unlike traditional paint, thermoplastic markings are applied hot and create a tough, resilient surface that can withstand heavy traffic and harsh weather conditions. This choice of material ensures the markings will last for years to come, maintaining their bright, clear appearance and providing a long-term solution for the college.
We were pleased to complete the work efficiently and to the highest standard, delivering the project on time so the college was perfectly prepared for the return of its community. Our commitment to quality means we offer a 2-year guarantee on all our work. This is our promise to you that the markings will remain in excellent condition.
