Welcome Break Site Investment

Date Posted 08/05/2025 Investment

Here at Welcome Break, site investment is an important area of the business which allows us to provide top of the range facilities across our services. Over the last 12 months, we have undertaken a range of installations from new lighting to shower blocks.

 

During this period, we have installed and opened five outdoor gyms at Rothwell, Oxford, Birchanger, Corley North and Hopwood. The addition of these spaces is part of our efforts to boost driver well-being and ensure our ongoing commitment to HGV drivers. As well as the outdoor gyms, there is also an indoor facility at Rotherham, situated in the HGV park with a range of fitness equipment.

 

Many of our investments over the last year have been based around improving the experience of HGV drivers. One of the ways we have been doing this is by upgrading the shower blocks at 10 sites across the country. We have also added female shower blocks at five sites to ensure that female hauliers feel safe and comfortable when stopping at our sites.

 

The addition of new lighting, security fencing and remote monitoring CCTV across a number of services is another way in which we have looked to invest for the benefit of site users. Making sure visitors feel reassured about their safety and the security of their vehicles is extremely important to us and this is reflected in our recent developments.

 

These are just some of the ways in which we are looking to enhance the experience for all our visitors. To find out more about what other haulier benefits you can access when stopping with us, click the button below.
