Specialist Anti-Skid & Hatched Marking

Canary Wharf.

Introduction.

C&R Line Marking (CR Ltd) recently delivered a specialist anti-skid and line marking project in the heart of Canary Wharf — one of London’s busiest and most security-conscious districts.
The project formed part of essential traffic control and safety upgrades surrounding newly installed automatic road blockers in a high-profile commercial area.

Requirements.

The client required:

  • High-friction anti-skid surfacing to improve vehicle grip and safety.
  • High-visibility yellow hatched markings to clearly define restricted and approach zones.
  • Precise alignment around road blocker systems to ensure compliance with safety and access regulations.
  • Minimal disruption to surrounding businesses, pedestrian routes, and traffic flow within Canary Wharf.


Working within such a high-security environment demanded detailed coordination with local management and on-site security teams, as well as careful planning to meet tight operational windows.

Our Approach.

Every stage of the project was executed with accuracy and attention to detail:

  • Surface preparation using professional cleaning and shot blasting to ensure strong adhesion.

  • Application of thermoplastic markings and high-friction surfacing materials for long-term performance.

  • Use of specialist equipment to maintain clean edges, consistent thickness, and reflective visibility.

  • Quality checks throughout the process to guarantee compliance with safety and aesthetic standards.


This wasn’t just another marking job — it was about delivering safety-critical infrastructure that performs reliably under pressure.

The Result.

The completed works produced a crisp, durable, and highly visible finish that enhances both safety and appearance.
The new markings integrate seamlessly into the surrounding urban setting, meeting the exacting standards expected at one of London’s most prestigious business districts.

Feedback from the client and on-site management teams was extremely positive, praising both the finish quality and efficient delivery.
