Description

National Highways company imperatives of safety, customer and delivery are at the centre of our drive to improve the efficient and effective delivery of our severe weather service. This project will focus on key areas to enhance both our delivery and efficiency of the current service, so that we are still getting the basics right but also looking towards future development needs.
The focus for this project is on our improving current winter maintenance practice in order to achieve further treatment efficiencies. An understanding of current technical and operational application techniques is required, in order to identify any barriers to efficient and effective operations and suggest solutions.
Improved use of weather analytics and forecasting, to influence and empower decision making, is seen as key to informing efficient treatment of the Strategic Road Network (SRN) and lessening environmental impact where possible, in reducing the amount of salt used.
