Clearview Intelligence - Smart Mobility Solutions

Safety, Sustainability & Scotland

Thank you for taking the time to visit our website.

Our solutions are deployed worldwide, with Scotland as our biggest market. Over the years, we have worked on many compelling projects, including the award-winning A720 Sheriffhall Roundabout and A1 Delineation scheme.

To learn more about our A1 Delineation Scheme and our other solutions deployed in Scotland, please continue reading.

With its 410 miles, the A1 is the longest numbered road in the UK, connecting London, the capital of England, with Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland. With a mixture of single and dual carriageway roads, A1 through the South East trunk road network is rural in nature.

With a focus on more local improvements, Transport Scotland aimed to enhance the road safety record of the route. Clearview proposed the deployment of 4,100 white and red SolarLite Flush Road Studs as road edge and centre delineation using amber and green studs.

The scheme, which covers 14 miles of the A1 from the Scottish border to the Granthouse Junction, allows the junctions to be defined to approaching drivers and to operate in darkness without the need for external power.

This route safety scheme targeted three main safety concerns:

  1. General visibility to and from the junctions
  2. Lack of consistency of signing and road markings
  3. The lack of definition at and around the junctions

The A1 Delineation Scheme User Survey Results

In co-operation with Napier University, the Transport Research Institute undertook independent research into the effectiveness of active road stud. By surveying residents around the area, the study aimed to determine the effects of installing SolarLite Flush Studs on the local site and how improved delineation has changed driver behaviour.

The results found that:

  • Over 90% of respondents claimed improved clarity of junctions, curves, bends, and lanes on the A1.
  • Over 90% of respondents expressed that the overall safety of the A1 had also improved.
  • Over 94% of respondents agreed that the studs should be more widely used.
