TAP installs complete ITS systems across stations and stops, bus fleets, depots, control centers and the corridors that connect them. Our teams deliver the pathways, power connections, mounting, structured cabling, fiber optic backbone, earthing and configuration that turn delivered equipment into a working system.
Every installation follows approved drawings and method statements, is carried out under an environmental, health and safety management plan, and is tested on completion, with records for each site handed over as as-built documentation.

- Step 03
Pathways & Power
Conduits, trays, enclosures and power connections prepared.
- Step 04
Mounting & Cabling
Equipment mounted and structured cabling installed.
- Step 05
Termination & Labeling
Connections terminated, cables labeled at both ends, earthing bonded.
- Step 06
Configuration
Local and network configuration of every device.
- Step 07
Installation Test
Functional test on completion and site records issued.
