Improved sustainability is claimed for the new streetworks solution from Australian company, 3480 Sustainable Infrastructure Solutions.

These allow road signage and bollards to be replaced quickly and with little disturbance, and the new concept allows concrete foundations to remain undisturbed when an item of infrastructure is impacted or requires replacing. Used to secure items of infrastructure, from small signposting, street furniture, and bins to large bollards and even traffic lights, the units can be removed using a simple tool.

The solutions can be installed when laying concrete foundations, reducing the cost of installing infrastructure by eliminating the need to dig up or disturb the paving.
