#299c Highways UK Live – Next Generation Asset Management
Manage episode 447652087 series 2334778
In 2024, National Highways completely closed parts of the M25, London’s orbital motorway. This blockage in the arterial system of the UK economy wasn’t a mistake. Instead, it was an example of meticulously planned surgery, performed by experts.
In the previous episode of this mini-series, recorded live at Highways UK, we saw how data is becoming key to the future of the UK’s road infrastructure. In this episode, we learn how asset managers, infrastructure owners and engineers can use this data to perform major works with minimal disruption, bundling them with other works that might otherwise have required lane closures.
Machine learning and artificial intelligence, driven by the vast array of data available from vehicles, assets, and roads themselves, along with external sources, can help streamline interventions on the motorway network. But, these decisions always require humans in the loop. Data-driven decision making must be based on human priorities, and leadership is needed to ensure efficient and effective collaboration between multiple partners and external stakeholders.
