What Is Civil Engineering Construction Site Security?

Civil Engineering Construction Site CCTV is the act of protecting a civil engineering construction site with products and services that protect the people, the project, environment and the equipment on the site. 

That being said, it is crucial to have the correct security systems in place to protect the facility, the equipment and importantly, the safety of the project. In order to provide this protection, usage of construction site CCTV, kiosk clocking in stations and similar solutions can be imperative to keeping the project free from crime, vandalisation and danger.

What's the difference between a regular construction site and a civil engineering construction site?

Regular construction sites focus on building structures such as homes and commercial buildings, whereas civil engineering construction sites develop infrastructure like roads, bridges, and dams. Regular construction projects are generally less complex and shorter in duration, requiring standard trades and equipment, while civil construction projects are more complex, longer-lasting, and require specialised workforce and heavy machinery. If you require security systems for either type of site be sure to get in contact today.

What measures can be taken to protect the perimeter of a construction site?

Perimeter protection measures include robust fencing, integrated sensors, alarms and CCTV. These systems detect any breach attempts and trigger alerts, allowing for immediate action by our experts in the control room to prevent unauthorised access or potential theft.

How can surveillance cameras enhance site security?

Our construction site CCTV cameras provide continuous monitoring of your site, allowing for real-time observation and recording of activities. High-definition cameras with night vision and motion detection capabilities will help to identify and respond to potential security threats quickly, deterring theft and vandalism.

Our Civil Engineering Construction Site Security Projects

M2 Junction Improvements

GRAHAM has been awarded a £92 million contract by Highways England to upgrade Junction 5 of the M2 motorway in Kent, aiming to enhance travel times for drivers in the area. The project will involve major improvements to the slip roads and junction approaches near Sittingbourne, including the expansion of the Stockbury Roundabout on the A249 under the M2. As part of the upgrade, the roundabout will be replaced with a new flyover interchange to improve traffic flow on the A249. Additionally, two new slip roads will be built to allow southbound A249 traffic to merge directly onto the westbound M2, and northbound A249 traffic to join the eastbound M2.

Given the project’s scale and importance, safety has been prioritised, with VIS Systems providing comprehensive solutions, including CCTV, KIOSKS clocking stations, Time and Attendance systems, and Time Lapse features.

VINCI Civil Service Hub

This development is a key component of the £350 million Talbot Gateway regeneration project, which also includes a new tram interchange at Blackpool North Station and a 144-room Holiday Inn hotel. Given the scale of this project, high-quality site security solutions were essential, and we provided and implemented them seamlessly.

Muse Developments has chosen VINCI Building to construct a £100 million, 215,000 sq ft office in Blackpool’s town centre, scheduled for completion by March 2025. Designed by Make Architects, this seven-story building will serve as the new headquarters for civil servants from the Department for Work and Pensions and the Ministry of Defence. VIS Systems played a crucial role in ensuring site safety throughout the construction by deploying Solar CCTV towers and time-lapse features, providing a comprehensive 360-degree security solution.

Stockport's Skyline Evolution: Time Lapse Project

VIS Systems proudly presents our project capturing the transformation of Stockport’s skyline through a time-lapse of the groundbreaking £135 million transport interchange. This state-of-the-art development is set to become a central hub for the town centre, and our advanced time-lapse technology documented every stage of its evolution, from demolition to the final structure.

Watch as the cityscape transforms, with the tower block rising into the skyline and the complex taking shape. Our construction time-lapse system not only highlights the building’s progress but also offers a powerful tool for marketing, project development, and documentation, redefining visual storytelling for businesses of any size.
