Leading traffic light equipment manufacturer SRL Traffic Systems has expanded its operations in the West Midlands by more than doublings its Coventry base.
The Cheshire-headquarter company has agreed a lease for Unit 5 at Henley Road Industrial Estate, extending their presence on the site having been based at Unit 4 since 2019.
The firm is a leading supplier of portable and temporary systems to the traffic management industry, supporting customers with a nationwide depot network.
The additional 4,300 sq ft unit will supply them with additional warehouse and office to upscale their operations, and includes toilets and yard space
Chris Thornley, Group Procurement and Facilities Manager in Coventry, said: “We’re thrilled to sign a new five-year term at Henley Road, which has proved to be a great site for us given its transport connections.
“Coventry is used as a central hub and the expansion will help us increase capacity for repair, testing and storage.”
SRL Traffic Systems is one of two companies who have announced an expansion at the Henley Road site, alongside bespoke door supplier Excel Composite Doors.
Louis Washington-Smith, Asset Director at property investment company The Wigley Group, who own the site, said: “It is fantastic news to have Excel and SRL sign up in quick succession.
“These units were only vacant for a short amount of time after our previous tenants moved out, so for them to be snapped up so quickly reflects the strong market demand for commercial property in this area at the moment.
“We look forward to helping both tenants with their exciting expansion plans here in Coventry.”
