/ 02Belfast pavement slip testing context

Why Belfast pavement slip testing matters.

Belfast pavements face the same fundamental pendulum slip test exposures as every UK city — granite-sett polish, moss and lichen biological growth, autumn leaf-fall, rocking paving slabs, tactile paving wear at controlled crossings — but the Northern Ireland weather profile and operational pattern shape the priority order. A continuous slip testing record across the Belfast pavement estate is the strongest single defence in any subsequent personal injury claim under the Highways Act.
