The project required a wide variety of wayfinding, operational, and health & safety signage to support complex vehicle movements and ensure driver and pedestrian safety across the depot. We carried out detailed site surveys throughout the build, creating mock ups of proposed sign locations and sizes to support client understanding and ensure accurate installation planning.
The works included:
• Multiple large high level tray signs visible from the main road
• Post mounted entrance and parking signage
• Comprehensive internal wayfinding solutions
• Health & safety and operational messaging across the depot
For the striking internal scheme, we developed a material palette that balanced durability and cost efficiency while delivering the “wow” factor National Express wanted for their new flagship facility. We also produced a series of stretched canvas graphics inspired by murals from the former depot, preserving elements of the site’s heritage.
Installation required tight coordination with BAM, particularly for high level signage facing the main road, which necessitated a carefully managed overnight road closure with our traffic management partner.
