Connected and Adaptive Maintenance for Safer Urban and Secondary Roads

The EU-funded CAMBER project uses a multipronged approach to develop workable solutions for integrating asset and safety management in urban and secondary road networks, aiming to identify affordable safety improvements. At an estimated 725 000 km, Europe's secondary roads account for over 90 % of fatal and serious crashes, of which one in three involve micromobility users. The project approach leverages road maintenance and upgrades to improve safety for all road users using new generation data sources and analytics with advanced digital twins of road infrastructure. In doing so, CAMBER aims to improve the efficiency of the systems used by road managers, reducing the costs associated with the collection of data required for road condition and safety evaluations.
