Posts

The versatile VX-O post is an extruded aluminium post, designed with a wide channel on one face to fit seamlessly with Trueform infrastructure and a double channel on the opposite face to fit Bissell infrastructure.

Supplied as standard in a silver anodised (AA25) finish, available in lengths from 3.6m to 4m. We can also supply posts painted to match any RAL colour*. Our aluminium posts meet highway requirements for breakaway. The VX-O post can accommodate electrical and data wiring looms for solar and real time solutions and is ideal for both premium and non premium routes and services.

We also offer a 76mm diameter steel post (TSP’s) in a standard galvanised finish. These can also be painted any RAL colour* and supplied in lengths from 3.6 to 4.0m.

Tubular Steel Posts (TSP’s) galvanised.

Foundation Sockets

An alternative to installing directly into the ground or pavement, the VX-O foundation socket offers the benefit of quickly changing damaged infrastructure.

The socket is installed flush with the footway so there is no trip hazard. The VX-O Post is slotted into the socket and securely fixed with a machined block and stainless steel fixings.

If a post is damaged and needs to be replaced, the entire operation takes less than 3 minutes.

The VX-O post and socket also allows you to remove the post and rotate through 180 degrees to change the direction of the flag and timetable case faces if required.This offers significant cost savings for maintenance operations as no installation crew or street works permits are required.

If a stop needs to be closed down, the post can be removed and a blanking plate attached to cover the socket.

Foundation sockets offer significant cost savings for maintenance operations and will not require a specialist installation crew or street works permits.

Other Forms of Installation

For installations where a socket is not required, we can supply a flat plate which fixes to the bottom of a VX-O post for added stability and security.

If you have another type of retention socket that you would prefer to use, please get in touch to discuss your requirements.

MetroSlide Flag The Premium Flag

The MetroSlide is a strong and lightweight fully welded hollow aluminium flag.

The flag slides into the wide channel of the VX-O Post and features an oversized ledge at the top to rest over the edge of the post, which is then secured using a post cap. All screws used are tamper proof and stainless steel.

The MetroSlide Flag also fits into the wide channel of the Trueform Elite and Slimline Posts as well as the Bissell Post, via universal extrusion

The MetroSlide is available in three stock widths; 300mm, 400mm and 450mm. The 450mm width flag is comparable to the Trueform Tiled Flag. Lengths range from 435mm to 880mm, depending on the information required on the flag.


Linear Flat Flag

The Linear Flat Flag is a universal design that can fit to both sides of the VX-O Post. It can also fit to the double channel of the Trueform Elite & Trueform Slimline Posts and the Bissell Desire Posts, as well as any Tubular Steel Post or lightning column.

The design consists of a Y-shaped extrusion, a flat plate made from aluminium or composite panel together with a cover strip.

The Y-shaped extrusion is permanently fixed to a post. The flat plate can be installed and removed without adjusting the Y-shaped extrusion. This makes flag changes very quick and simple.

As the Y-shaped extrusion is formed of two parts that nest around the flag plate, any flag plate thickness can be used.

All of these features allow the Linear Flat Flag to be truly versatile. This replaces the need for varied types of flag, giving you the advantage of carrying less stock so maintenance becomes a breeze.

Stock sizes are available in widths from 300mm to 450mm and lengths of 440mm to 880mm.

Buildbox

Using Buildbox, Externiture’s very own in-house, uniquely developed software, we can tailor each survey to gather the exact information you need either by geographical area or specific bus routes. Buildbox is great for managing both small and large quantity surveys of any complexity. You decide what results you are looking for, and what stops you would like surveyed, and we custom design a survey to meet your requirements.Upon completion you will receive a survey pack containing all of your results. These will be provided in a CSV (Comma Delimited) format and your photographs will be available in a digital format of your choice, with each site identified by ATCO code. You can now integrate your results with your own software or use as a standalone database.


Design

Survey

Our survey is a popular choice for a number of our clients looking to gain visibility on their bus stop estate either in a whole County, a smaller geographical area, or along a specific bus route. This allows you to know exactly what infrastructure you have and its’ condition, enabling you to make more informed decisions on allocating your budget.

Civils

Whether you are looking to upgrade a route or are pro-actively preparing to be DDA compliant before 2017; we can offer you a civils site survey to look at every aspect of an existing or new site. This could identify if the existing kerbs are the correct height for low floor entrance buses or if the bus stop is still located for rear boarding buses. We know passenger safety is paramount too so we can also check whether there is a safe place for passengers to wait, that is not a grass verge, and if dropped kerbs are required, to provide safe crossing points.

Line Marking

With a line marking survey we can ensure your bus stops and bus stands are legally compliant with the local authorities’ traffic regulation orders. Making your sites legally enforceable alleviates potential congestion. This survey can be carried out on its own or combined with a civils or infrastructure and civils survey.

Get to grips with your infrastructure by using Buildbox to provide accurate asset management data.


Design

Consultation

As a customer we will provide you with a key account manager supported by a small team who are totally committed to you.

Technical Design

We’re able to offer bespoke 2D & 3D design for any new ideas you may have. We can also provide you with proofs or prototypes and carry out product testing.

Ultimately we aim to find you solutions that are balanced and affordable, creating designs that are universal and compatible for all your public transport infrastructure.

Using the latest 3D CAD software, we are able to significantly reduce the lead time for developing new products. We use 3D printing to create models of extrusions and parts to check the design and test how they fit with other products.

Our team of graphic and technical designers will give you the right skill set to achieve a timely delivery of your project.

Graphic Design

Our in-house design team can help you create your artwork from scratch or replicate existing artwork you are already using. We understand brand management so we know it’s important for your artwork to look professional. Our graphic designers can create anything that you want or need and will make sure that your infrastructure is both inviting to the public and tailored to your requirements.

We have extensive experience in dealing with media that needs to withstand outdoor elements so you can be rest assured, you will always receive printed media of an exceptional quality.


Manufacture

supply only order we can assemble one unit for you to use as a guide for your own staff.

Every stage of the assembly process is met with total precision with all of our products put through stringent quality control checks before they are despatched. This way, we provide you with the best quality items.

Where we are installing for you, we will always assemble most of the products in the warehouse to minimise time spent at the roadside. We use our Mission software to determine the most efficient routing of stops for installations. Assembled items are then picked and loaded onto our vehicles in the same order ensuring we work systematically, further minimising time spent at the roadside.

Assembly

Here at our headquarters in Berkshire we have a large distinct area of our warehouse solely dedicated for assembly. This area caters for orders on a small scale, for products like flags and timetable cases, or for larger orders such as fully assembled posts.

We can tailor our assembly package to suit your needs. Whether this is a simple supply only order or a fully assembled upgrade, complete with printed graphics and roadside media. Alternatively, for a

Our experienced team of engineering technicians will expertly assemble your products for you.

Printing

Using our in-house Mimaki CJV30-130 printer, we’re able to print media up to 1250mm wide.

Digital Flag Printing

All flags printed digitally are printed on LG 5-year vinyl and laminated for durability against the elements. Full colour digital printing produces vibrant, flawless prints every time.

Screen Printing

To help you save on costs, we can also offer a screen printing option for large quantity print runs. Printing with this method is ideal for designs using three colours or less.

Route Number Grid Printing

When altering your services, consider the cost saving option of updating only your route number grids as opposed to the entire flag. In any size, to any specification, you’ll get to see a proof of each individual stop for you to sign off before going to print. Want to know how we do it?... Check out page 28-29.

Timetable & Publicity Printing

Timetables and posters of any size are printed on 400 micron waterproof material, making them robust, durable and less likely to wilt in the case.

Lamination

Lamination prolongs the life of the graphic. Laminating printed vinyl gives an additional layer of endurance against the ever changing weather conditions that outdoor infrastructure faces, particularly in coastal locations.


Supply

Lead Time

Stock items can be supplied in 4 weeks from receipt of your order. If you require a customised order we aim to have a lead time of 6 weeks.

Graphic print only orders can be turned around within two weeks from receipt of approved artwork. For graphic artwork generation, lead times may vary, depending on content. We will work closely with you to meet your requirements.

Stock

We keep our most popular product lines in stock at our headquarters in Berkshire, as well as at our satellite depots in Glasgow, Nottinghamshire and Kent.

Graphic print only orders can be turned around within two weeks from receipt of approved artwork.


Install

Externiture offer a turnkey civils service that covers bus stop installations, footway construction, raised and dropped kerbs as well as clearway line marking.

Every stop is unique and there are a lot of factors to consider. We have a wealth of experience with this type of work, so make it easy by working with us when upgrading your bus stop estate. We’ll guide you through the process.

Hardstands

Hardstands can be individually planned to meet the needs of the specific locations. Book your work with us and we can either meet you on site to agree exact requirements or work from detailed photos supplied by you. You will receive photos of each location after the works are completed.

Footway Construction

We offer footpath and cycle path preparation with the option of cycle path tactiles, line marking and signage.

Raised Kerbs

Many sites require raised kerbs in order to be DDA compliant. We can install raised kerbs for each specific location, customising the kerb height to meet your requirements but generally between 125mm and 160mm in height with lengths from 1.8m onwards.

Drop Kerbs

If dropped kerb access is required then an extended kerb area with raised kerbs, transitions and dropped kerbs can be designed to suit the requirements for each site.

Kassel Kerbs

We can also install Kassel kerbs on premium sites or sites that are served by kneeling bus fleets.

With a wealth of experience of civils projects, let us help you plan your upgrades.


Post Installations

We can upgrade your existing estate including reseating posts or removing redundant posts, even if they are not our own design.

Installations can be fitted directly into the surface or installed using a socketed system. The options for post installations are removing the existing post and either installing the new post in the same location or installing the new post in a more suitable position at the same bus stop.

Our Team

We offer a full project management service for scheme upgrades. We only work with two specialist installation teams across the country who we have worked with continuously for the past 10 years.

Install

We do not subcontract out to other crews meaning we have a strong reputation for quality and consistency. We pride ourselves as being the leading specialist installer of bus stop infrastructure with depots in Berkshire, Glasgow, Nottinghamshire and Kent.

The emphasis we place on detail is carried through in our civils program, by making sure that our civils team have exactly the information they require to carry out the works. Our team are provided with location images, full GPS co-ordinates and a full brief of what is required at each site.

If a project is going to run on longer than one day, they will install a temporary flag to ensure customers are aware of any changes. After works are completed the civils crew capture completion images which are shared electronically with you.

Both teams are fully NRSWA compliant.


Line Marking

Either with the information gathered from a survey (see page 5) or from your own knowledge, we can schedule your line marking. This can be to refresh existing line markings, to install at new sites or remove disused markings.

We don’t just stop at bus stop clearway cages; we can install bus stands, school clearway lines or bus station refreshing - in fact any type of road markings can be accommodated.

We will risk assess each location to determine if traffic management is required and obtain the permits as necessary from the local authority.

We also supply clearway plates to ensure your sites are fully complaint and enforceable.

Maintain

Externiture can fulfil adhoc and contract requests for maintenance for a variety of needs including site cleaning, foliage removal, panel shelter maintenance as well as repair work to damaged flags and posts.

Bus Stop Infrastructure

Weather, vandalism and badly positioned infrastructure can take a toll on your posts and flags so it’s handy to know that we are there to repair or replace broken or damaged infrastructure by quickly making the site safe, locating a temporary flag (if necessary) and supplying and installing replacement parts where required.

Shelter Maintenance

One of the main reasons for vandalism to shelters is because of the poor state they are typically left in. By keeping a shelter clean and well maintained, vandalism is discouraged.All our vehicles carry a range of fixtures and fittings to allow us to work on most shelters. At our Berkshire and Glasgow bases we stock a variety of glazing sizes to suit most shelters, bespoke sizes can typically be sourced within 24 hours.Where we cannot fix the damage to a shelter, we aim to make it safe, installing barriers where required, and then either requesting spares from the manufacturer or fabricating the parts ourselves.In the case of an RTC, we would aim to make a site safe within 24 hours, then remove it within 1-2 weeks.

Cleaning

Keep your premium sites looking premium - regular cleaning of the post, cases, flags and additional signage maintains the appearance of your stops, their services and the public’s perception of the local authority and operator.

Our vans are fitted with pressure washers and water

bowsers to enable us to give stops a deep clean where required to remove traffic film and algae. Our roadside crews are always careful when cleaning around publicity and electrical enclosures so as to ensure there is no immediate danger to the public or themselves.

Foliage Removal

When on site, we are trained to operate the equipment required to clear overhanging bushes and trees, ensuring that your sites remain visible and tidy for public use.


Posting

We can print your timetables or we can design your artwork and print onto fully waterproof media. We can then either deliver them to you to post in the timetable cases yourselves, or we can offer a full installation service, removing the out of date roadside as we go.

Flag Revinyling

Some flag faces are very faded or the graphics have deteriorated leaving them hard to read. Why not order replacement flag graphics, giving you the opportunity to freshen up flags in a given area or route. This could be the time to revamp dated graphics with up to date Traveline information.Some flag faces may fade or deteriorate quicker thenothers. It’s easy to order just a small batch of flags with us or an entire route.

Route Number Grid Upgrades

Rather than having to replace the flag face, simply remove the route number grid and replace with updated information. Simply supply us with an Excel spreadsheet containing the stops that require changing, the flag types and the new service information. We can then print new route number grids and cut them to size for easy application.

The Subtle Details

Additional clarity is achieved by adding a thicker black line between sections. When designing your flag, consider these small changes as they can have a big impact on the overall design.

When choosing how best to design your flag, legally, the only requirements are:• The words “Bus Stop” in a legible font. • The stop name in a clear legible manner.• Any text must be clearly visible, up to 10m away.

Your Design Checklist

Supply the fonts you wish to use.Define the values of each colour: For digital - CMYK For Screen Print - Pantone® / CMYKSupply your artwork in vector format. All artwork should include a 3-5mm bleed.Ensure your artwork won’t be covered by other physical components (digital displays, brackets, bolts etc).

We Can Do This...

Whether you just want a facelift to your current designs or you’re looking for something original and exciting, why not ask us to design something for you? Our quotes will tell you exactly what’s covered so there are no scary surprises.

Bleed Area Cut Size


Route Number Grids As mentioned on page 26-27, it’s up to you what you wish to display on your flag. Once your design is done, it’s time to gather all stop specific data into a spreadsheet. Each service on a route number grid is shown in a different column on the spreadsheet. We then run the graphics and stop-specific information through our Printegration software to produce proofs which are then submitted to you for approval and sign off.

Digital vs Screen Printing

We print onto self-adhesive vinyl and then apply the vinyl to fabricated flags. Flags can be screen printed or digitally printed.

Screen printing has the added advantage of being UV stable and cost effective for longer print runs of 200 flags or more.Flat flags are often screen printed directly to the plate. This extends graphical life. Stop specific information is then applied with cut vinyl lettering.

Digital print is cheaper for shorter runs and is better when the design requires more than 3 colours. Digital print should be laminated for external use. A high grade external UV stable laminate extends digital print life by 100% over unlaminated print.

Guide to Graphics


Route Numbers can be supplied as individual stickers or as complete grids and can be arranged in any format required, from individual stickers to horizontal bands or number grids.

Using our Printegration software we can produce Route Number Grids quickly and to your specifications.

Rules may include operator logos, parent and child services, route graphics and route order of services. Character font, size and colours are also fully configurable.

Route Number Grids are sent to you in PDF format for approval. Once approved we can print and despatch, or alternatively, print and deploy, within 15 working days from sign off.

Automated Layouts

This Route Number Grid shows how a service graphic is fitted into the grid. As this represents Service 3, it is placed at the head of the grid as it is the first numerical character.The sequencing rules begin with numerical characters, moving to alphanumeric characters. This is seen in the second example with the “X1” showing as last in the grid.

Unique Operator Services

The Printegrator software can link a bus service number with an operator. So, if your Route Number Grid needs to display the operator’s logo as well as the service number, this is simple to do.

Linked Services

The rules for this grid ask the child services to be placed into the same box as the parent service. When the data for this grid is run through the Printegration software it recognises that the “18A” is a child of the “18”. The software joins the two services together and the child service routes are placed in a pre-defined location and height.

All printed media is printed on durable outdoor vinyl suitable for standing up to the environment all year round.
