What's included
H&H Safe Guarding Services supplies professional traffic marshals (also known as banksmen or vehicle marshals) to construction sites, logistics yards, retail deliveries, film locations, festivals and event car parks across the United Kingdom. Our marshals keep vehicles, plant and pedestrians moving safely — reducing the risk of struck-by injuries, near-misses and costly site shutdowns. Every operative works to HSE, CDM 2015 and Chapter 8 standards and is briefed against your site-specific Traffic Management Plan before the first shift.
What our traffic marshals do on site:
• Bank reversing HGVs, tippers, concrete mixers, MEWPs and mobile plant using recognised CITB hand signals
• Segregate pedestrians and vehicles at gates, crossings and loading bays
• Control entry and exit points, manage delivery booking-in and check PPE compliance for visiting drivers
• Operate stop/go boards, temporary signage and cone layouts in line with Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual
• Escort abnormal loads, low-loaders and oversized deliveries through live site routes
• Monitor speed limits, one-way systems and exclusion zones around lifting operations and excavations
• Marshal car parks at events, retail parks and corporate sites — directing flow, filling rows and managing accessible bays
• Complete daily diary sheets, near-miss logs and incident reports with photographic evidence
Compliance & standards we work to:
• HSG136 — A guide to workplace transport safety
• CDM Regulations 2015 (principal contractor responsibilities)
• Chapter 8 of the Traffic Signs Manual (works on or near the highway)
• CITB / NPORS banksman & vehicle marshal guidance
• Construction Logistics Plans (CLP) for TfL and major London boroughs
• FORS Bronze, Silver & Gold operator requirements
• Purple Guide for event car parks and outdoor venues
Training & vetting — every marshal we deploy holds:
• Accredited Vehicle Marshal / Banksman certification (CITB or NPORS)
• Valid CSCS card for construction site access
• Chapter 8 (Highways) awareness where works affect public roads
• Emergency First Aid at Work (EFAW)
• SIA Door Supervisor licence where combined with security duties
• BS 7858 background screening and full Right to Work checks
• Hi-vis Class 2/3 PPE, hard hat, gloves, safety boots and radio kit
Where we deploy:
Principal contractor construction projects, infrastructure and rail compounds, HGV distribution centres and 3PL warehouses, supermarket and retail park deliveries, school-run safety patrols, film and TV location shoots, festivals, concerts and sports events, exhibition centres, hospital and university campuses, and temporary works around live highways and TfL red routes.
Whether you need a single banksman for a one-day delivery, a full marshal team for a multi-phase construction programme, or rolling event-day cover for a 10,000-vehicle car park, H&H provides site-specific RAMS, daily toolbox talks, real-time WhatsApp/radio dispatch and full digital incident reporting — coordinated by a dedicated account lead and backed 24/7 by our NSI Gold accredited control room.
