Cat's eye and reflective road stud installation

Riggotts supply and install a wide range of road studs designed to improve visibility, safety, and traffic guidance across the UK’s highways. Our reflective road studs – often known as cat’s eyes – are fully Sector 7 Highway approved and available in various colours to comply with UK road traffic legislation.

For those wondering what are road studs, they are small, durable reflectors embedded into the surface of the road to enhance visibility, especially at night or in poor weather conditions. These road reflective studs help drivers identify lane markings, junctions, and hard shoulder edges, and they also provide an audible and tactile warning for wandering vehicles.

Our studs on road installations are known for their strength and resilience. They are designed to withstand heavy traffic and harsh weather, including the impact of snow ploughs. Whether you require a stand-alone road stud installation or prefer to include it as part of our comprehensive One Stop Shop package, Riggotts delivers precision installation and lasting performance.

By choosing Riggotts, you’re ensuring that every reflective road stud installed contributes to safer, clearer, and more efficient roadways across the UK.

Whether you have a small car park that requires reflective studs for extra safety or need replacement cat’s eyes for an entire stretch of motorway, Riggotts can cater to your needs. These projects are handled by a truck-mounted milling machine which handles a wide range of cat’s eyes and reflective road studs including:

– Traditional Halifax type cast steel-based cat’s eyes studs mounted on reflective mounted inserts based on the original 1932 model invented by Percy Shaw.

– Solar powered road studs, both traditional and red coloured.

– Maintenance-free, state-of-the-art dome glass style cat’s eyes studs.

– Various types of crossing stud and studs for creating a rumble effect.
