Virgin Media were experiencing serious problems with a manhole cover situated in a bus lane on Essex Road in Islington. Complaints from local residents and business owners were escalating and relationships with the local authority were becoming strained. Wrekin Products proposed the use of their Unite™ manhole cover and frame together with the UniPak™ bedding system.
Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council is responsible for maintaining and improving Dudley’s roads and highways, which consist of a network of some 600 miles of both major and minor roads. Wrekin's Unite range and Unipak mortar were used in the improvement of the quality of roads around the Dudley area.
