Streetworks, Telecoms, Accessibility and Lessons Learned
On the 4th Feburary, the Paragon Traffic Management team attended the Streetworks Solutions Mobile Communications Streetwork Engagement Day, bringing together organisations from across the telecoms and streetworks space.
For us, events like this are about more than just lead generation. They’re more about listening, learning, and understanding how we can continue to raise standards across telecoms traffic management, both operationally and socially.

A Valuable Focus on Accessibility and Social Value
One of the most impactful parts of the day was the presentation delivered by Seema Flowers, which focused on disability awareness and accessibility within streetworks and construction environments.
This session resonated strongly with both Tony and Shirley. It prompted important conversations internally about how sites are experienced by people with disabilities and what more can be done to ensure traffic management layouts are inclusive, considerate and safe for everyone, not just compliant on paper.
As a traffic management company working daily within public spaces, accessibility is not an optional extra. It is part of delivering sites properly. Events like this play a vital role in keeping that conversation alive and pushing the industry forward.
Why Events Like This Still Matter to Paragon
Despite limited immediate commercial opportunities, the day reinforced why Paragon continues to engage with telecoms events. They provide space to connect with peers, learn from specialists, and reflect on how traffic management supports wider social outcomes particularly around disability access and public safety.
For telecoms project coordinators, planners and delivery teams, these conversations matter. Good traffic management isn’t just about permits and layouts, it’s about understanding the people moving through sites every day.

Thank You to the Organisers
We’d like to thank Streetworks Solutions for hosting a well-organised, thought-provoking event and for having us along. Creating a forum where operational delivery, compliance, accessibility and social value are all discussed together is an important step in raising standards across the telecoms sector.
We’ll continue to take these lessons forward as we work with telecoms clients nationwide, delivering traffic management that’s clear, considered and built around people.
