New AI technology is being trialed by Hertfordshire County Council to detect potential potholes. The ARRES Eye scanner from Robotiz3d is mounted on maintenance vehicles to collect road data during regular operations. This innovative approach aims to identify road surface issues before they escalate into significant problems.
The scanner utilizes laser technology to monitor road conditions over time, allowing for early detection of cracks and weaknesses. This proactive strategy aligns with the council's long-term maintenance goals, especially in light of recent weather challenges. An increase in the budget for highway maintenance further emphasizes the commitment to improving road safety.
• AI technology helps detect potholes before they become problematic.
