We have technology that makes it possible to monitor road worksites 24/7. It contributes to increased safety for both road users and everyone who works on or near our roads, higher level of service and reduced climate impact. Inspection of road work sites is largely a manual process. Personnel going out to investigate and, if necessary, fix the placement of road signs and other traffic devices is still the most common way of conducting inspections. Which can be both challenging and problematic.
On the one hand, it can be dangerous work in traffic situations with high speeds, and on the other hand, physical supervision involves transports that cause vehicle emissions. We strive for a paradigm shift and a move from routine physical supervision to digital and event-driven monitoring. Using our technology, we can connect workplaces with our cloud-based platform. This enables 24/7 monitoring and means that any deviations road signs that have been hit or overturned, low battery levels on lanterns, etc. Can be rectified immediately, which reduces the risk for road users and road workers.
By reducing physical supervision, it is also possible to reduce the number of transports and thus emissions of greenhouse gases. Our solutions make it possible to create a digital twin of workplaces and monitor in real time in the following areas road signs and signs position and location. Protective barriers and other heavy shutdown collision or displacement. Variable message signs and temporary traffic lights position and battery status. Intelligent is a cloud-connected monitoring device that can be connected to a wide range of temporary traffic devices.
Once started, it will create a digital twin of the device it is mounted on and monitor both position and status. This is particularly useful in collisions or weather conditions making it ideal for monitoring temporary traffic devices. Intelligent can be used to monitor a temporary road sign, barrier or diversion device. This will create a digital twin of these devices allowing them to be monitored remotely and make the maintenance of temporary work zones more efficient by reducing unnecessary physical inspections. This approach enables a transition from time-based to event-based maintenance of work zones.
Each company involved in the energy efficiency agreement implements actions from its own starting points and commits to do its best to achieve the goal. The measures and obligations of companies are discussed in more detail in the program of measures for the trade sector.
