Civil Infrastructure
Improving community safety through smarter,
longer-lasting infrastructure
From major road networks to local intersections, OmniGrip Direct is redefining standards in safer, smarter and more sustainable civil infrastructure across Australia.
Transport networks and public spaces must perform under constant use, harsh weather, and regulatory pressures, while budgets, emissions, and maintenance windows continue to tighten.
We work closely with road authorities, Councils and contractors as a single-delivery partner with national reach and local expertise. We design, supply and install certified, high-performance surfacing, smart safety lighting, signage and traffic-calming systems that enhance public safety, extend asset life and minimise maintenance demand, lifecycle costs and operational disruption.

Your trusted single
delivery partner
Reduce contract complexity and lifecycle costs by working with one partner to supply, install and manage integrated civil infrastructure safety solutions
Safety is our foundation
Our solutions help reduce slips, improve accessibility and visibility, strengthen asset longevity, and enhance visual appeal, helping you keep roads, bridges, carparks and public spaces safe, compliant, operational and low-maintenance year after year
Built for certainty
Certified to Australian Standards, including TIPES and NCC alignment, our solutions deliver verified performance and proven reliability that give you confidence in compliance and quality
Stronger assets, less disruption
Durable, low-maintenance systems extend asset life and reduce repair cycles, cutting the need for frequent maintenance. Flexible out-of-hours installation further minimises closures and disruption, keeping networks open and communities moving safely
Sustainability in action
Circular by design, our solutions use recycled materials, low-VOC resins, self-power, solar power and long-life components, helping you meet sustainability targets, reduce emissions and waste, and achieve lasting environmental and performance outcomes

Roads & intersections
High-traffic roads and intersections face constant wear from braking, weather and heavy use. Wet conditions, fading surfaces, and poor visibility heighten the risk of skidding, crashes, and costly repairs. Our solutions strengthen road safety and reliability by improving traction, durability, and visual guidance – reducing crash rates, extending asset life, and keeping transport networks safe and operational.

Rail & tram networks
Rail and tram networks face constant wear from heavy use, weather, and complex crossings shared with vehicles and pedestrians. Slippery surfaces, low visibility, and accessibility challenges increase the risk of slips, crashes, and service disruptions. Our solutions enhance traction, visibility, and guidance to reduce risk, extend asset life, and keep networks operating safely and efficiently.
Solutions:
Enhances braking and traction at rail and tram approaches.

Restores worn crossings and shared areas, extending service life
Defines shared access boundaries using bollards or modular barriers
Airports, ports & transport hubs
Airports, ports, and transport hubs endure relentless pressure from vehicles, equipment, and thousands of daily passengers. Slippery surfaces, glare, and unclear routes compromise both safety and efficiency. Our solutions improve traction, visibility, and wayfinding to protect people, vehicles, and assets in these demanding environments.
Our solutions:

Adds bright, ground-level cues supporting distracted pedestrian awareness and accessibility at crossings and terminal entries
Control vehicle movement through bollards and modular systems
Deliver visual and audible alerts in high-risk operational zones
Tunnels & underpasses
Tunnels and underpasses face constant moisture, poor lighting, and heavy use from vehicles and pedestrians, creating serious safety risks. Slippery surfaces and reduced visibility increase the likelihood of incidents and maintenance disruptions. Our solutions increase traction, visibility, and guidance to create safer, more reliable links with long-life performance.
Our solutions:

Defines lanes and movement areas to maintain smooth, orderly traffic flow
Bridges & elevated structures
Bridges and elevated structures endure continual stress from traffic, weather, and structural movement, accelerating wear and increasing maintenance demands. Fading surfaces, reduced grip, and poor visibility heighten safety risks for all users. Our solutions improve traction, visibility, and long-term durability to protect critical infrastructure, lower lifecycle costs, and keep bridges operating safely and efficiently.

Perth Rail LED Safety Tactiles
See how OmniGrip Direct improved pedestrian safety at Cannington Station, where the new elevated rail structure
creates shadowing across the pedestrian crossing.
LED Safety Tactiles were installed and synchronised with the existing traffic signals to provide brightly illuminated red and green ground-level cues, helping the general public, including vision-impaired and distracted pedestrians, clearly understand when it is safe to cross, improving movement through the busy rail–bus interchange.
