Case Study: Leicestershire County Council improves road safety inspections with RoadMetrics AI

Leicestershire County Council Trials RoadMetrics AI as an Early Adopter

Leicestershire County Council, responsible for a vast 4,000 km road network, faced significant challenges with its road condition assessments. Traditional manual methods were costly and time-consuming, limiting inspections to only a quarter of the network annually and leading to inconsistent data for budgeting and hazard identification. To address these issues, the council partnered with RoadMetrics AI to explore a more efficient solution.

RoadMetrics AI implemented its smartphone-based survey and AI analysis platform, developing a custom model trained on the council's specific road network. This solution provided efficient, accurate, and cost-effective assessments. The implementation delivered substantial benefits for Leicestershire County Council, including enhanced inspection efficiency, accurate and consistent analysis that minimized human error, and significant cost savings through proactive maintenance planning.
