Description

Highways England is looking to set up a contract for provision of a structural assessment tool starting with a Proof of Concept.
The tool will contribute to key performance indicators in safety, efficiency and user satisfaction, with minor effects on smooth traffic flow and network condition.
A staged approach starting with service design agreed with the HE Portfolio Office and a proof of concept will help ensure that the safety assessment of abnormal loads travelling over structures is carried out in an SES approved, consistent way, reducing risk and increasing transparency. The tool will eliminate un-maintained and unapproved assessment processes that are known to present a level of risk to structures.
This task will pave the way for a fully maintained production tool.
