From Data to Delivery: Real-world solutions transforming our road network

You'll get real-world examples of how data, digital frameworks, and sustainability partnerships are helping transform road maintenance, asset management, and carbon reduction efforts, and you'll learn actionable takeaways on how to integrate best practices and emerging technologies into everyday operations to futureproof transport infrastructure.
