With our expertise we can ensure your transport cabling and infrastructure stays robust and reliable.

ROAD CABLES

The most popular set of copper cables in the road transport sector is cabling associated with vehicle detection, where visibility and safety are paramount. These include a loop cable that is embedded in the road surface, as well as a feeder cable that connects the loop to the controller. An orange control cable that runs from the controller to the signalling lights is also one of our highly sought after products. They are engineered for longevity and ease of installation, ensuring that traffic signals remain operational through rain, hail, or shine. Each state has its own unique topology for how it builds its road system so that transport cabling required by each state is of varying constructions. Garland, has a range of Road transport cables that have been approved by the appropriate State authority. We can also supply multi-core feeder cables, allowing contractors to wire multi-lane intersections with fewer pulls and less clutter. If your project demands something truly unique—such as high-monitoring applications or specialized environmental protections, Garland can also build custom design cables where required, in cases of specialised to individual application demands.

RAIL CABLES

The rail industry demands a level of reliability that few other sectors can match. In an environment where safety is non-negotiable and downtime can cost millions; Garland’s range of rail cables can provide the peace of mind that engineers and project managers require. Rail signalling and counter cables manufactured to regional specifications have long been the part of the Garland range of products offered by Madison Express. These cables are often highly specific to the project’s geography and the legacy systems already in place. These cables facilitate communication between trains, stations, and control centers. Given the harsh environments of rail corridors—exposure to UV, moisture, oils, and physical abrasion—our cables are built with robust jacketing and high-grade conductors.
