Our History

1980’s
The Hughson family started out as a small roadside tree clearing and well drilling company. During this time Hughson proudly provided road side clearing services for Bell Canada on the 401 from the Quebec border to Belleville for the national fiber optic cable installation, a distance of over 275 kms!

1987
In 1987, the Hughson family transitioned into Hughson Fencing and Guiderail and added fencing and guiderail installation to its list of services.
1987-2008
Hughson Fencing and Guiderail completed many smaller scale projects for both municipal and provincial governments as well as subcontracting work for many eastern Ontario general contractors. During this time, Hughson continued to gain experience in roadside safety installations and in 1997 added its first post pounder to its fleet of equipment. The addition of the post pounder greatly increased production as opposed to digging every hole and changed the way guiderails were installed.

2008
While continuing to provide guiderail and fence installation services, Hughson Barriers was formed in 2008 to provide installation services for all roadside safety barriers and crash systems.
2008-Present
Over the past decade, the Hughson Group has transitioned into a full service road side safety service contractor and provides not only fence and guiderail services as they did in the 1980’s and early 1990’s, but a full range of other roadside safety services such as barrier and noise walls, overhead signs and footings, deep foundations, roadway protection systems and sweeper and vacuum truck rentals. Hughson proudly provides services to federal, provincial and municipal governments as well as many General Contractors throughout Eastern Ontario.
