Kier and Chevron leading the way

Published on 16 Sep 2017

Training videos, also known as ‘The Project’

The continued successful collaboration between Kier and Chevron has proved itself once again by sponsoring a traffic management (TM) training additional TM training.

‘The Project’

‘The Project’ has been designed to produce a series of short videos portraying our traffic management activities. The videos will showcase current practice and new techniques and will be supported by a commentary and frequently asked questions to assist those showing the videos. The videos will provide our workforce with the visual training guides that can be used during training, tool box talks and start of shift briefings, providing non-operational colleagues with baseline awareness training.

Location

Filming will commence on Saturday 13 August at Heyford Park Airfield near Bicester. The Area 3 and Area 9 TM teams will be hiring the Airfield for an entire week of filming, utilising a section of airfield which is 1.77km in length — equivalent to a 6-lane motorway. Production company Whitespace, will undertake all filming and narration using our own workforce.

Support

Representatives from the client and specialist industry groups such as the Road Worker Safety Forum and the Highways Term Maintenance Association, will be in attendance during filming of the new training videos to study the Kier and Chevron approach to workforce training. This will enable them to closely observe works that are not usually available for study or observation due to the high level of risk involved when working adjacent to live traffic.

Thank you for your help. The works to the bridge were completed and great teamwork from both crews. I had a good view from the bridge and was very impressed by their work. Always said it....TM is an art form!

Please accept our thanks your team’s efforts on this project. Chevron have been brilliant, nothing has been too much to ask of you and we have delivered to programme despite the complexities of working at these junctions. Look forward to working with you in the future, I think it’s forged a good relationship between us.

Can I please express my thanks on behalf of everyone at Kier for the exceptional aptitude and attitude shown by one of your site teams who were engaged in a recent local community project. As with any town centre closure there were some ‘challenges’ thrown at the crew but their attitude and commitment to the safety of the children, parents and support groups was second to none. It’s lovely to be able to write this reference to your colleagues, please pass on my most sincere thanks.

Another great success for Area 3. To turn this around in such a short space of time due to the nature of the repair and the location is a credit to you and your teams. Well done!

A404 Resurfacing

Could I say a big thank you to yourselves and to all your crews which were on site at the A404 Resurfacing scheme last night. I have spoken to the Tarmac site supervisor from the Chieveley depot this morning who was very appreciative of how helpful and how good it was to work with the crew that was on site.
