| 摘要： | I began my career as a motorway maintenance engineer in 1978 with Surrey County Council when the position for maintenance engineer for the M23 became vacant, and I was fortunate enough to be offered the position. Motorway maintenance was still in its infancy in those days and was merely treated by the county council - through its agency agreement with the Department for Transport (DfT) -as just another dual carriageway highway. The vehicle and safety equipment used were standard county council issue, and hence substandard for the speed and volume of traffic rapidly building across the strategic network. To improve safety for both worker and user of the strategic network, I looked to the USA for guidance and for supply of more suitable equipment as they already had a head start on us. Initially I procured and trialled a sequential arrow (see photo), which was trailer mounted and towed behind the protecting vehicle at the rear of the works. |
