Road Surfacing
Surface quality is the most visible part of any highway or new development project. A well-constructed, durable surface not only creates a strong first impression for residents and businesses but also plays a vital role in safety and long-term performance.
We specialise in large-scale Section 278 surfacing projects, delivering high-quality surfacing, resurfacing, and remedial works across roads, roundabouts, footpaths, cycleways, and pedestrian routes. Our surfacing solutions are designed to meet local authority specifications, ensuring that projects achieve adoption without costly remedial works.
Comprehensive surfacing solutions
Our surfacing services cover the full scope of requirements for new-build and improvement schemes, including:
Road and footpath widening & resurfacing for adoptable highways.
Anti-skid and specialist surfacing to improve safety at junctions, crossings, and high-risk areas.
Coloured surfacing and tactile paving for cycleways, pedestrian routes, and accessibility compliance.
Drainage integration and service alterations to prevent premature surface failure.
Traffic management to maintain safe vehicle, cyclist, and pedestrian flows during works.
Liaison with highway authorities to ensure all specifications are met for adoption.
Durability, safety, and aesthetics
When selecting a surfacing contractor, clients need confidence that the works will stand the test of time. We specify and install high-performance materials that balance cost-effectiveness with durability, reducing the need for future maintenance. Safety is central to every project - we design surfacing schemes that keep all road users protected.
Well-finished surfaces and clear road markings enhance the look and feel of a new development, creating a positive first impression for prospective residents, businesses, and local communities.
Minimising disruption during surfacing works
Surfacing often requires lane closures, diversions, or temporary traffic controls. Poorly managed, this can frustrate residents and businesses. Vista takes a proactive approach to traffic management planning, phasing works to reduce disruption and maintaining safe access wherever possible. We also provide resident care packages, keeping communities informed and supported during the works.
