This week, the Local Council Roads Innovation Group (LCRIG) welcomes to new associate members.
Procter & Street was formed to provide industry leading Project Management Services.
David Procter, Director at Procter & Street said: “Procter and Street have joined LCRIG to connect with a community of like-minded councils, organisations and individuals in the pursuit of better highways. We are keen to collaborate with others to provide better solutions and improved value for money for clients.
We aim to support LCRIG members to win local work and do more for their local councils.”
iTiphandles offer a safe and easy way to tip your loaded wheelbarrow, sack trolley, cement mixer.
Andy Hill at iTiphandles said: “iTip Handles are a start-up company with an innovative safety product for the Highways industry. iTip® Handles is a revolutionary handle that fit on everything from wheelbarrows to roll cages. They are ergonomically designed to rotate. Therefore as you walk, lift and manoeuvre your manual handling device they keep your back and wrist straight preventing strain and injury. This leads to less time required off work and reduces the chances of long term musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
iTip Handles also provides Health and Safety Executive (HSE) compliance allowing for the first time a truthful, accurate and legal Risk Assessment Method Statement (RAMS) for manual handling devices.
Being a small start-up company it is hard for a company to traverse the processes and organisation to reach the appropriate business contacts. Thanks to NY Highways, iTip Handles were introduced to LCRIG and the Innovation Festival 2022. This has led to a host of trials and conversations.
iTip Handles hope that they can increase safety in the highways industry thanks to working with LCRIG.”
