How we work safely in traffic
- Engineers arrive in high-visibility PPE with warning beacons and cones appropriate to the road type.
- Live-traffic jobs are dispatched ahead of routine bookings.
- Parasitic drain diagnostics standard — trackers, dashcams, refrigeration, tail-lifts, aftermarket wiring
- Fleet & Business Jumpstart work here is judged against the vehicle's own specification rather than a generic pass mark.
Where roadside calls come from
Common spots are the approaches to A459 and A4100, plus the junctions where traffic queues and engines get restarted repeatedly.
Locally that means Cradley Heath itself plus the neighbourhoods that feed into it, with access via A459 and A4100 and a practical radius reaching Old Hill (~1 mi) and Blackheath (~1 mi).

Roadside emergency questions
Q.I'm on a live carriageway — what should I do first?
Get everyone out on the nearside and behind a barrier if it is safe, hazards on, and call the emergency services if you are on a motorway. Then call us.

Roadside calls are prioritised. From our Oldbury base most Cradley Heath jobs are reached inside the hour, faster off-peak via A459.
