Case Study: Blackpool Council achieves safer roads and lower claims with Gaist

Blackpool Council - Customer Case Study

Blackpool Council partnered with highway infrastructure specialist Gaist to transform its approach to managing and maintaining its road network and footways. The challenge was to move away from a reactive and costly maintenance model to a more proactive and efficient strategy.

Gaist provided a comprehensive data capture and analysis solution, surveying the town's entire network. This gave the council trusted intelligence, enabling them to confidently allocate funds for cost-efficient, proactive maintenance. By implementing Gaist's data-driven approach, the council dramatically improved road safety and slashed roads-related claims from £1.8 million per year to under £100,000.
