Local Authorities

As a local authority you can take great comfort in the reputation ATG Access has within your sector and we have created this section to specifically answer any questions you may have and to re-affirm ATG Access as the right choice for your scheme.

You will find below a collection of links to various case studies, each showing an example of how we have worked with Local Authority to provide schemes which meet and exceed expectations in terms of usability, budget and after-sales service.

The procedures within ATG Access are geared towards partnership with Local Authority and our concerns are the same as yours in as much as we aspire to achieve the highest level of economy, efficiency and effectiveness of every service we provide and the best possible level of service for our clients and our end users.

To aid your tender process we are fully approved members of ConstructionLine, and all our information is available from there. We are also SAFEcontractor and CHAS accredited.

We also have all the information you could require regarding our Health & Safety Policies and Quality Management System available to download here.

If you want independent advice about rising bollard systems and their use on the highway please contact Richard Preston at Cambridgeshire County Council via e-mail on richard.preston@cambridgeshire.gov.uk. Richard is Head of Network Management for Cambridgeshire County Council and Chairman of LARBUG.
